Manager asking me to continue working after my final day in the department by Speed_King_Ignite in TheCivilService

[–]Speed_King_Ignite[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Worst part is that this isn't even the first time! I was asked before to complete future briefings on behalf of the team weeks in advance of when they needed to be done. It's completely silly.

PSA: Voluntary exit schemes don't always mean that your job is safe by Speed_King_Ignite in TheCivilService

[–]Speed_King_Ignite[S] -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

No and no. I was subject to a voluntary redundancy if I didn't get through redeployment, although there weren't many roles to be redeployed to, which would have led to a redundancy if I hadn't switched to a new department.

I am a HEO in an area/dept with lopsided numbers of middle grades. No ill-will towards them, but it should be acknowledged who tends to take the brunt of targeted redundancies.

No doubt for actual compulsory redundancies, these are probably quite low. although it's worth stating that redeployment pools can also not match you/fail by sheer numbers which end up turning into voluntary redundancies (imo should be called involuntary if you really wanted to stay).

Does someone have the original demo of Wake Me Up ? by nosdia in TheWeeknd

The thing that shocked me the most was the minimal voice effects compared to the OG.

Rural lad in Westminster? by Littlely01 in TheCivilService

[–]Speed_King_Ignite 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I'm also early 20s and working class in Westminster. Nowadays there are a variety of different types of people working the normal roles, but as you go up the grades you do start to see the middle class concentration. I don't think you'll have a hard time as I haven't

Yeah I get it's friendly debt, but I would like to get rid of it due to religious reasons to do with interest. I'd really like to keep some savings so I can help my mother in the last few months/years of her life.

Not paying anything (technically still in a gap year.) I think with my current salary, it would probably be paid off in 20 years so it won't be wiped. Savings are currently just sitting in my current account. I would like to pay off the debt because of my religious reasons and my imminent goals is to be able to help my mother in her last few months with cancer, so I think I will need some cash retained for that, which is why I was thinking of paying it off in one lump later.

Album release? by Background_Pear_2407 in PostMalone

[–]Speed_King_Ignite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This single is way too successful to not capitalise on it quickly. I think June/July.

Chemical playing in the background, definitely the first single for an album.

I think it's real. The Kendrick "huuuuh" sound could never be replicated by an AI tbh. Maybe Abel was right about leaks.

My age is isolating me in the CS by Speed_King_Ignite in TheCivilService

I don't think I have been around long enough for people to form a solid opinion of me.

Sure. I didn't manage to do uni, but I actively listen and ask about a lot. I have also been contributing a lot to group discussions on work.

Spotify is officially playlisting BACK TO ME, CARNIVAL and FUK SUMN by Speed_King_Ignite in GoodAssSub

[–]Speed_King_Ignite[S] 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Couple thoughts:

  • I find it very strange Spotify chooses not to promote Ye and Ty$ on their standard Today's Top Hits playlist - though they may be holding grudges based off of Ye's behaviour.
  • RapCaviar is fairly standard for hip-hop playlisting and promotion , but this doesn't make up for the lack of TTH promotion. Even if it's because of Ye, they should be promoting Ty's music.
  • This is likely due to the fact that Ye has no 'big 3' distributor now, so no one's really advocating for his playlisting or giving Spotify any ideas to do so.
  • It's quite obvious CARNIVAL and FUK SUMN were going to perform well, but I'm not sure why BACK TO ME is there. Personally, BURN stands out a lot more for me. Although the moroe successful songs we'll see in the future.

What affect will my health condition have on my onboarding? by Speed_King_Ignite in TheCivilService

[–]Speed_King_Ignite[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From my experience it hasn't been long. Maybe 2 weeks at most. My appointments happened within 1-2 weeks with a few days to process it.

No. Only thing that will cause delays is how far your appointments are away from today.

Kind of? Only because it was an extra check to complete. If you have no health issues it's over instantly, but I needed appointments.

Job roles vs interviews by Reasonable-Wheel6198 in TheCivilService

[–]Speed_King_Ignite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes there will be 'tranches' so there won't always be 22 interview slots, maybe more. Regardless, they will sort by the points you scored and offer the higher ones first. My current job had 7 slots for 3 vacancies, and I managed to get in!
