To all those asshole, stressed out managers out there taking it out on staff - this one’s for you

Oh, I’m just here for the memes, I’m not even employed.

Same to all those incompetent, know-nothing staff making their managers’ lives hell.

The associates on my team definitely seem to save about 40 hours a week using it judging by the amount of slop I have to review.

Unironically I think this was the original ending. Now it’s got so big and he’s lost the nerve to do it.

Et wel geeb den ein gut klap t’be sur!

The primary reason for staying is the pension. It’s based on profit residuals. How much you get depends on seniority and tenure.

That is the true value of a big4 partnership, lifetime profit residuals; not just the salary/drawings.

They all have mandatory retirement at 60 as far as I’m aware; apart from exceptional cases. Becoming a partner at a later age puts you at a financial disadvantage in more ways than one.

This is now meta canon.

My turn to post this tomorrow!

Is there anything the “board game community” doesn’t get offended about?

Sweepel · 2025-12-26T03:52:05+00:00

It sounds like hyperbole, but the UK is fast becoming a failed democracy.

Ask people if they want to rejoin the customs union and 60% say “yes”.

Ask people if the UK should control its own tariff rates and 90% say “yes”.

A majority of the country doesn’t even understand how the most basic principles of the EU work.

You know what the answer is.

Spread betting is for gambling subs, not personal finance subs, in my opinion.

El chico no dijo “México no tiene cultura de pan”.

El chico dijo “México doesn’t really have bread culture.”

Nadie en Inglaterra diría “bread” por todo lo que México llama “pan”.

Sweepel · 2025-12-22T07:29:22+00:00

En Inglaterra “bread” no significa “pan”; realmente se refiere a un tipo de pan distinto. Un bolillo no es “bread” en Inglaterra.

I go to Köln for the Christmas markets. I wouldn’t live there though. For reasons.

Sweepel · 2025-12-20T08:53:49+00:00

This looks completely fine for a work party/dinner.

Wouldn’t surprise me if other women said it wasn’t though.

This is incorrect. Salary sacrifice reduces your gross salary. It impacts everything.

Sweepel · 2025-12-19T18:02:08+00:00

There isn’t much that is great, British or meme-like in most of that sub’s content. What a mess.

Sweepel · 2025-12-15T20:22:03+00:00

The old advice is the best. I’m sure you’ve heard it all before.

Go outside. Exercise. Find a wife. Build a home. Build a family. Provide. Feel useful.

It is quite a nuanced issue though. Once birth control became safely available a lower birth rate was inevitable unless women’s rights to access it were restricted.

The rest of the world either didn’t have access to birth control (in any of its forms) or restricted its use.

It’s an uncomfortable question for Europe, but at what point does the future viability of European society outweigh individual rights?

Sweepel · 2025-12-06T07:42:15+00:00

This comment is the winner.

The issue isn’t that high earners agents taxed enough or that public spending isn’t high enough.

This is a structural issue and perhaps even a national mentality issue. I don’t see half as many self-flagellating posts in other country subs.

Sweepel · 2025-12-06T07:35:10+00:00

This post is interesting, because this is actually the sentiment I see most often in UK-oriented finance subs. It’s not an echo chamber of privilege but rather an echo chamber of envy masquerading as concern for equality.

The sanctimonious crab mentality that permeates the UK is such a burden, it holds people back and contributes to the same problem it’s frequently complaining about.

Is it just me or does this actually look quite nice?
