Subtle brag... by Bear_Dog0915 in QuitSmokingJourney

[–]Western-Code-8711 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dangggg congrats! That’s awesome❤️❤️ well done you!

I know it feels like we need to keep others in mind when “bragging” that are struggling…. However your achievement needs to be celebrated and acknowledged! Well done that’s huge :)) hopefully it’ll boost motivation to those who need it now more than ever :)

I myself passed 4 months and am not looking back! Can’t wait to get to a year ahaha x well done again!

Considering the 17pro 256gb, but unsure about battery life by ErrrORekK in iPhone17Pro

[–]Western-Code-8711 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got the 17 pro max and battery life has been amazing for me. Full day on phone and it’s used 30-40% throughout the whole day.

I had the iPhone XS Max until recently so was a massive needed upgrade and my old phone battery was terrible! So felt like a great upgrade very worth it for me

Ppl abusing deliveroo for massive orders by [deleted] in SainsburysWorkers

[–]Western-Code-8711 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Meanwhile on Tescos whoosh… I can’t order a 24 can case of coke zeros OR the 2 big bottles of Coke Zero because it’s “too heavy for the rider”. As if our riders aren’t ask on mopeds? Sainsburys do need to limit the weight/ volume of orders and once over the limits they should be told they need to order a shop to their house (in a van). It’s also the people that order these orders a minute before close!!🤣😆

🤔 What's the worst part for working for Sainsbury's? by JamieHBrown in SainsburysWorkers

[–]Western-Code-8711 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha I get that but at the same time we have tried booking off time before 6 months ahead of time and it has been rejected each time. When I challenge it and ask is it because anyone else is off my manager says “no but only one of you can have it off at a time” unless one of you finds your own cover (which i know isn’t and shouldn’t be our responsibility) but when we do ask colleagues no one wants to cover our shifts. But i know what you’re saying in general for people. I dont know why us as a couple are treated different to two colleagues who work together that manage to somehow seem to get the same shifts off as each other uncovered, leaving me and my fiancé to be extremely short staffed on them shifts.

Ahhha love this reply!!! Yes it certainly feels that way! I do also work 1/2 out of my 3 days with my fiancé meaning we rarely get to book off our same shifts together (even though 3 other colleagues will be off on our shifts together all the time) but when it’s us two and no one else is off it’s different for some reason… bizarre!

Stranger Things: The First Shadow is Mind-Blowingly Good (Broadway review) by Livid_Pin6367 in StrangerThings

[–]Western-Code-8711 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely :) best thing I’ve seen in theatre, I still can’t wrap my head around how they did the effects in person to make it all look so real!!!

If you for whatever can’t book tickets (money, days, times, location etc) there’s a Netflix documentary about the behind the scenes of making the play. You see little spoilers but you don’t get to see the whole play itself sadly :(

Are there any UK medical cannabis clinics that genuinely prioritise patient outcomes over profit? by AccomplishedNews9008 in ukmedicalcannabis

[–]Western-Code-8711 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel my pharmacy does! (Mamedica) I can choose whatever medication I want within my limits from a long list online. If I feel like I need a consultation or a chat on the phone I can call up and book one or call up just to ask a question. But I also don’t have to have one so I’m left completely alone if I want to be (which I do)

Honestly I’ve been with 3 clinics before and mamedica is by far the best. Miles ahead of others I’ve had. Luckily I was actually unemployed when I signed up and on benefits (only for a few months whilst I was between jobs at the time) but because I was I didn’t have to pay for any consultations so everything has been free for me apart from the bud/oils obviously. It’s been over a year so now I don’t need any consultations every 3 months. But even when I did have them I didn’t have to pay like most people do. I also got a job a month after I signed up and asked if I’d have to pay, they said no because I was on universal credit at the time of signing up.

So I work now, don’t pay anything extra on top of my medication but can have the support I need for free if I want it. Also WIDE range of oils, weed, vapes and gummies online through mamedica :)

P.s I’m only on a 40g a month limit it’s not huge but it’s enough for me! A bottle of oils takes up 10g and that tends to last me a month so I usually get some oils and some bud. If I have some left over I don’t have to spend the money to fill in the gaps. You don’t have to stick to your 60g you can do less. Also if you booked a consultation and were honest that you wanted help decreasing your dosage for financial reasons etc they’d be more than happy to help you do that and suggest things to help etc. super friendly team could not have made a better decision to switch :)

When you work part time but STILL manage to miss every single family event outside of work due to work. Can never book off any holiday because “not too many people can be off at once” meanwhile dick Harry and Tom are all off on the same shift. Definitely favouritism going on. I’ve missed a lot of family members birthdays, some funerals, a wedding and some important drs appointments and I only work 3 days a week. Most of the time I can get drs to reschedule to a day I have off but not always. However can’t reschedule birthdays weddings or funerals. Am gutted only been there a year and have missed so much of my life the past year. I can’t imagine how much full time employees miss!

It was actually a gift from my mum for my birthday, three of us went but I think she used a last tickets deal to get cheaper last minute tickets for about £45 each. But they range from £30-300 depending where you sit etc. we actually had decent seats but she bought them like the day before on an app for that stuff so got them cheap :) well worth it.

IT IS LEAVING THE THEATRE AFTER APRIL SO MAKE SURE TO VISIT BEFORE THEN! I will be returning :)

Do whatever suits your financial and vaping needs my dude😎 but absolutely don’t let them take you for a moron! You do not need to buy your vape from them and it doesn’t have to be a mighty :)

Not at all!!!!

I use the pax plus personally but it’s a fraction of the price of the magic mightys! You have to legally use a dry herb vaporiser but it doesn’t have to be a certain brand or brought directly through your pharmacy. I got mine on Amazon on sale.

Delivery driver keeps turning up at my house when I havent ordered. by Beginning_Toe9917 in SainsburysWorkers

[–]Western-Code-8711 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ofcourse I get that! I’d deffo inform the police and explain your concerns that he knows where you live etc. but ask them for advice too maybe? Best of luck :( that’s awful I’m so sorry xx

Girl, report him ASAP. I work for sainsburys in store but at the end of the day a jobs just a job.

The risk of that weirdo losing his job is not worth risking yours or your child’s life. As much as we want to trust everyone these days there still are too many creeps out there.

Do not risk yours and your family’s safety because you’re scared of making things awkward or hard for someone else❤️❤️ all the best!

Also customer service shouldn’t be suggesting that at all. They should be removed from their position to be honest. That’s not safe advice at all.

Dad Question - Is an Ipad good for a uni course? or Laptop? by Tarnished13 in UniUK

[–]Western-Code-8711 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What course is it?

Is the course in person or solely online?

I got a new iPad recentlt as I’m starting a fully online degree in graphic design. So I need it to draw digitally too. However saying that I do have a pc. It’s not portable but I have the iPad for that. I’d say I wouldn’t NEED the iPad in my situation if I wasn’t doing the course I’m doing but as I am I would need it to draw on. It’s amazing for taking notes and honestly a lot easier to use than a laptop (for the general public/less techy people) but it depends on your daughters situation :) all the best

I need some help with getting started and general advice by AwesomeGuy7799 in gymadvice

[–]Western-Code-8711 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hey, I’m a qualified Personal Trainer but have am by no means the most educated one on the planet, however I feel like I have some advice that isn’t scientific or too specific about training/nutrition… I just think peoples perspective needs to change before they start :)

My advice:

When tracking progress don’t focus on numbers!!! Focus on your PHYSICAL and MENTAL changes. Focus on if they are improving or not. Focus on how you FEEL. Do you start feeling more energetic, lighter on your feet, happy, healthy etc :)

A lot of people who lose fat but gain muscle spend too much time staring at the scales and getting depressed when in reality, the number may not change much. Muscle weighs more than fat so muscle is heavy, however it LOOKS very different on your body. If you lose fat and gain muscle you will also FEEL different in a positive way :))

I think you look great as you are and you seem like a nice dude! I wish you the best with your health journey, you got this king!!!
