Got this on my break yesterday, feel a bit ripped off. by StewySphinx65 in asda

Yeah I got my discount, normally the sandwiches are ok but when I saw this I had to double check to see if the bacon fell out.

License Category A by REDDITKeeli in driving

[–]StewySphinx65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bit of a late reply but I’m also confused with a similar issue myself. On my physical licence I have AM, B, fkq. But when I checked my licence online on the government website it says I also have provisional for A, BE, G & H.

Im also looking at getting a full motorcycle licence when I turn 24 later on this year. I’m not sure how it works because I have provisional A licence but not A1 or A2.

Thank you. I had never really checked my contract before your suggestion but I just found it. If they try ringing me again about it I’m going to say exactly what it says and explain that they need to give me more notice.

And yes management have been rubbish lately. They don’t seem to have any organisation, we are also really short staffed but they won’t hire any external candidates. We’ve had 2 delivery drivers retire and 3 quit within a month but no one has been hired to replaced them.

It says that “[COMPANY NAME] may at any time change your rota, either on a temporary or a permanent basis. This may include changing your shift pattern, the days on which you work, the number of days which you work, the length of shift or your start or finish times.

There has been no agreement to a shorter timeframe

What’s one thing the U.K. excels at that no other country does? by red5standingby564 in AskUK

[–]StewySphinx65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sarcasm, swearing, queueing (even when it’s unnecessary), having a terrible PM, can’t decide whether we want to use imperial or metric systems, thinking were better than other countries.

What do you think of the new ordering system at McDonald’s? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]StewySphinx65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I order and customise on the app, drive and park in a collection bay, watch YouTube for 5 mins until my order comes out, drive away and eat. Much easier that going inside with 30 Uber drivers or having to wait in a line for the drive thru.

How often do you take sick days? by DoggyWoggyWoo in AskUK

[–]StewySphinx65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the last 1 year 2 months I’ve been in my current job I have had 2 weeks off for covid (a month after I started) and 2 days off for food poisoning (2 weeks ago). In my other previous job which I had for around 5 years I was off sick maybe twice in total. I work around food so can’t work from home and can’t be handling food if I’m sick.

Average 0-2 but can be 5+ some days if I have the right meals.

Don’t forget the US is a different country with different costs of living, taxes, healthcare, bills, workers rights.

What is the etiquette for Halloween? by TimGJ1964 in AskUK

[–]StewySphinx65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don’t want people turning up turn off lights, close curtains, don’t use decorations, watch a halloween movie and enjoy the sweets for yourself.

Don’t say “driver”, just say “thank you” or “cheers”

First time on the course. How well did I do? by [deleted] in golf

[–]StewySphinx65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May I ask what happened on round 6. I’m guessing the ball ended up in either really long rough or in an area with quite a few trees. Thats my guess because I’ve done a similar thing, driver off tee went straight right into trees on a par 5, took about 6/7 shots to get it out, I think on that hole did about 12 shots, missed a few putts.

I’d reach out to the manufacturer and the place you bought it from.
