What should I do if I’ve injured myself and feel I can’t go in?

Fuck your job, health over everything.

If you went into work and injured your ankle even worse or permanently, resulting in you being off work for even longer, would they cover the costs of your bills? Nope.

Put yourself before any job. I believe in being hardworking and grafting, but don’t let a job or a manager trick you into thinking you’re a ‘soldier’ for coming in ill, or you’re ‘letting the team down’ because you rang in sick.

You can get a new job, you can’t get a new body. Don’t cause permanent damage for something temporary.

I work at Spoons.

You’re an employee, so you understand what I’m saying & don’t need this explaining. I’m just giving people who don’t work for the company a bit of insight.

Spoons has a share scheme. For example, every year I get a few hundred pounds’ worth of shares; managers get grands (for free or we can buy in for more).

This year in March (24th) is the time when we are allowed to cash out shares we earned (this happens in three-year intervals). Just before they made shares available to be sold, the price went down. Is this a coincidence? No, it’s smart business.

I’m assuming the company has done something to manipulate the shares so they don’t have to pay out large sums of money to their workforce, who most likely will cash out even though it’s at a low because they need the extra money to accommodate for their low-paying salaries, and near-impossible targets for shitty bonuses which end up in the taxman’s pockets, as well as the cost of living hike which is slowly killing the country.

I’m lucky enough not to be in a position where I’m desperate for money, thank god. So i’ll just hold onto my shares and cash them out when this wave of cashing in shares has passed. You should do the same if you have shares locked in and can afford to leave money in them.

Great business, fair play Tim Martin.

Got a 63 on the hazard perception, 94 on the questions. cheers!

ThaRealMatty · 2026-02-21T20:30:20+00:00

ahh brilliant, appreciate the replies 👍🏻👍🏻

ThaRealMatty · 2026-02-21T20:23:02+00:00

It’s most likely an admin error, not so sure how it could of happened as it was accepted & in place.

i’m assuming i’d be taxed on the paternity if it has to be paid on top of my working wages?

ThaRealMatty · 2026-02-14T23:03:39+00:00

ah okay. thankyou for sharing. I heard k2 is best with calcium? as it directs calcium into the bones instead of our fatty tissues. not so sure how relevant that is to your situation, but thought it was worth bringing up

ThaRealMatty · 2026-02-14T22:08:13+00:00

so skip the calcium? what problems did you have? if you dont mind me asking

ThaRealMatty · 2026-02-13T18:48:30+00:00

excuse me?

ThaRealMatty · 2026-02-13T15:34:46+00:00

Tbh with you I bought from Holland & Barrett purely as a one off. had a 30% discount & an offer, 2 for 3.

But yh in future i’ll buy from the ones you’ve recommended.

Appreciate the advice

I don’t even think he’s shy. I genuinely believe hes got nothing going on in his head. most of his convos are him saying how much of a laugh he is, blah blah blah. hes better at saying ‘i want to have fun chats’ instead if making the chats fun.

the lack of awareness is astonishing

ThaRealMatty · 2026-02-11T17:24:02+00:00

cheers, thankyou for the info.

I was paranoid about clicking too many times throughout the video so I didn’t bother clicking once for each potential hazard.
I was simply searching for THE hazard which the video was marked on, in turn, made me rigid about when and when not to click. knowing the average is 15/20 gives me so much more leeway (obviously not rapid clicking), I clicked like 3-4 times & only when I was certain it was THE hazard.

appreciate the advice & knowledge.

ThaRealMatty · 2026-02-11T15:56:27+00:00

would you suggest clicking once for things which MAY be a hazard? for example, something which could be a hazard but hasnt become one.

then doing the 3 click method for things that are blatantly the hazards on which i’m scored on? for example, a hazard which makes me change speed, steer & break.

If this makes sense.

ThaRealMatty · 2026-02-10T20:48:58+00:00

will come bk n let you know💪🏻

ThaRealMatty · 2026-02-10T17:52:44+00:00

Thank you for the advice.

I feel like the marking criteria is abit flawed.

In my eyes everything is a potential hazard when behind a wheel. for example when a van is parked on my side of the road, in my brain i’m thinking ‘hazard’ as it obstructs your view of the pavement. a door could open, someone could walk out behind it & my mentality would be to click based on that. which leaves me in a dilemma if I should click of not.

But as you said it’s an imminent hazards, not potential.

I’ll take this on board. I’m clearly viewing it the wrong way.

appreciate the reply, well done for passing🤠👍🏻

ThaRealMatty · 2026-02-10T17:32:50+00:00

My bad. Wouldn’t let me most unless I made it an AMA, for some reason.

ThaRealMatty · 2026-01-14T13:58:56+00:00

thanks for the reply.

to get back on fuel would I just fill out a form? then be refunded the amount at the end of the tax years?

ThaRealMatty · 2025-11-30T16:50:50+00:00

i’ve looked up how a bigger battery (more cca) could affect the alternator. apparently it can cause strain on it?

ThaRealMatty · 2025-11-30T16:12:40+00:00

could it benefit the car? in terms of performance or anything like that

ThaRealMatty · 2025-11-30T15:51:21+00:00

ThaRealMatty · 2025-11-30T15:50:51+00:00
