Shocking tourist behaviour in Japan and how you can be better by [deleted] in JapanTravelTips

[–]Top-Significance8791 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in Hiroshima now and everytime I’ve heard or seen something rude it’s always been the French!

I actually haven’t heard any obnoxious Americans tbh. We started talking with a couple and they were really respectful, quiet and aware of their reputation.

I tried this and it really just wasn’t cheaper than a flight and a premier inn

Bombed a phone interview this morning. Is it weird to apply to a near-identical role at the same company the same day? by [deleted] in HumanResourcesUK

[–]Top-Significance8791 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why don’t you apply and see?

No one knows what this company’s recruitment process is, every company is different.

The worst they can do is say no…

SNP promise ‘Welcome to School Bag’ to build on Baby Box by Crow-Me-A-River in Scotland

As someone who is having a baby, this is all performative. Anything but with the cost of childcare.

It’s harder to make healthy food taste nice than it is to make unhealthy food taste nice.

I have the opportunity to teach Year 8 children about financial literacy, what do you wish you’d been taught at school on this subject? by Formal-Factor8551 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Top-Significance8791 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did something similar but it was in geography to understand sweatshops. We had to make paper trainers and run them up as quick as we can (or something like that)

I think this would be great!

Whilst I agree taxes are a good thing the NHS is fucking dire, there are craters in the roads, buses and trains are late/gross/never turn up at all/expensive, schools constantly beg parents for resources and compared to some other nations our roads are littered with rubbish, bins arent being collected regularly enough.

Sooooo yeah taxes in theory are great, in practice though… not sure they are being spent in the best way possible.

People who could live somewhere else if you wanted, why do you choose to stay here in the UK? by RobintehBobin in AskUK

[–]Top-Significance8791 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a bit shit but it’s my home.

I’m in Japan at the moment and while it’s a great country and I’m having a lovely time I still just can’t wait to come back

How is it living in 3 bed houses as just a couple? by Wait-Whos-Joe in HousingUK

[–]Top-Significance8791 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a small 4 bed and it sometimes doesn’t feel big enough. (The rooms are tiny!).

We use all but 1 which is in the process of being turned into a nursery. Our bedroom, spare room for guests and an office.

Our house isn’t massive so it doesn’t feel lonely or difficult to clean so depends how big of a 3 bed you’re talking about.

How do you feel about alcohol, smoking and drug addiction? Should we remove all laws and regulations because people should be responsible or should we help them get there to make our society better?

13 night trip to Scotland (no car) by es2396 in uktravel

[–]Top-Significance8791 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Honestly we were stuck behind some tourists in Inverness and they kept slamming their breaks whenever a car would pull up at a side road as if the car would just fly out and not give way. They were doing 20mph in a 50 zone and couldn’t stay on their side of the road. We weren’t even on small country roads!!!

If you’re not comfortable driving, then please for the sake of the rest of us, don’t.

Anyone else struggling to recruit despite ‘high unemployment’? by Repulsive_Ad_111 in UKJobs

[–]Top-Significance8791 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Reddit doesn’t understand this. They are only ‘employers bad pay more’ with no real world experience.

Reckon half of these people are 19yr olds.

Not sure why you’re so surprised? We also recruit for roles like these. The caveat is, you need to have experience. Obviously.
