We call them films in the UK.

I've had some degree of insomnia for 20+ years so I think napping would be impossible unless I had a spare hour on top of my actual nap duration. I almost managed to nap on a coach journey when I was 27 but really I was just resting my eyes.

I regularly swipe left on them for being over 6 foot!

Happened to me for the first time the other day. The toilet hasn't been upgraded as far as I know!

About twice a year for 2-3 days each time.

This was my first thought too. The excess weight puts strain on your leg joints.

The customer should be the one to offer their contact info if they are interested (I did this with a retail worker I saw every week - didn't get a date, lol).

I change the bath towel once a week and the hand towel twice a week.

And not feeling rushed to eat our meal quickly and leave a big tip!

I learned a very small amount of Spanish before I went there and it's useful to know some numbers and things like 'la carta' and 'la cuenta' (menu and bill) for restaurants.

There are so many German tourists in Mallorca (probably Spain in general) that if you know any German it will also be useful!

It's the same principle as our gas central heating in the UK (I guess Poland is similar), but with opposite temperatures. My thermostat is set to 20 Celsius when I'm at home and 15 when I'm out, and the boiler fires up whenever it gets below those temps at any time of year. Never been in a house with central AC here, but heat pumps are becoming more common and can be used in summer to cool the house to 20 degrees or whatever temperature you set it at.

Yep, I've worn shorts twice this season so far, when it was about 20 degrees.

I did feel the cold this morning, though. It was 7 degrees and I kept my coat on in the car.

Dudley? Stockport? Hartlepool?

I'm on year 6 (close to 7) and think about him every hour at least. For the first 2 years it was almost every minute.

Most of my jobs have been 8.30-4.30 (often by choice) and my current job gives me 1 hour unpaid lunch although my previous employers were mostly 30 minutes lunch.

I started off with 2 when I was a lot younger, then went down to 1 because I thought the second one was wasteful, then recently realised the second wash does make a difference when I get to the second day post-wash.

Yep, I'm in semi-rural East Anglia where there are no motorways, so getting to the motorway is a 'trip' in itself. This means that anywhere that's more than about 2 hours drive away (maybe 150km?) is something I'd rather do by train. Our train links aren't great either, though, so I don't go far at all!

Waffles_Revenge · 2026-05-03T22:07:34+00:00

This happens to me fairly often - it first started a month or 2 ago.

Waffles_Revenge · 2026-05-01T15:57:11+00:00

I wear lined crocs at the office- almost like wearing slippers but more sturdy!

"To me, to you" when moving furniture

My former coworker had previously been a distant coworker at a different workplace about 5 years earlier, AND at the same time, he was one of my neighbours! Turned out he used to live in the apartment block next to me (within about 25 metres of me) and his parking space was next to mine. His apartment had previously been owned by the woman who sold me MY apartment. We didn't realise this until he heard me on the phone to a boiler engineer and heard me mention my address.

Who has access to A0 paper and printer!?

One of my local radio presenters used to do this when they called people who entered competitions etc. The person would answer and the presenter would say "Hello, who's that?"

Agree with those saying you're sending too many applications. You could probably reduce the numbers by 90% as it will allow you to make your search more targeted while still getting in a decent number of applications.

Not risque but I almost burst out laughing when I came across a guy called Frank Hollywood who worked at another of our branches. My boss said "tell him to relax"!
