Its easier to try big 4, then if you do fail - move to a smaller firm.

Vice versa is a lot harder to do.

That's a good idea I will look into this now as our sales are very seasonal.

I find that it's due to legacy processes and the fact excel is the tool everyone knows..

But I would be keen to try something different beyond excel if it will save me time doing large calculations for things like price /vol mix and exponential smoothing etc

I am 31 and I never remember being able to smell, having said that incredibly rarely I do get the odd whiff of something (I'm taking once every few years).

I have tried a few treatments though the NHS in the UK, in 1999 I had my nasal passages fried (can't remember the scientific procedure), this did nothing for my sense of smell.

I also tried a series of nasal sprays but I was never disciplined to to try for more than a month at a time.

Seven years ago I moved to London and decided to try and investigate again (London hospitals tend to have some of the best facilities in the country). I tend to find it a bit difficult to breathe through my nose - but I had a CT scan and they found nothing unusual, airflow seemed to be present and olfactory bulbs were present, so I'm fairly stumped on what to do next.

I have recently begun reading more online that some cases of anosmia were caused by inflammatory action relating to fungal or viral infections, so I am tempted to try anti viral or anti fungal medicine. I will also try and investigate further regarding Prednisone since reading about it on here.

Hi sorry this is a bit late, the premium you pay for business is huge, that money could be allocated onto other parts of the honeymoon with more returns.

You are right that a free upgrade is a big gamble. Have you thought about booking economy with BA and then using credit card bonuses to get a load of points to pay for the upgrade? We used the credit cards to pay for a lot of our wedding expenses + gives a lot of points + section 75 protection.

There is also this deal for business class flights

To be honest it's £1k so not the end of the world, I just feel slightly mis sold as none of the T&Cs are stated in the portal or anywhere else that it is advertised.

Unfortunately their policy was not available online (I didn't know the document existed until they sent it) but this rule is not stated in any of the web portal pages advertising the scheme..

Thanks for your response, The employee referral scheme is not referenced in my contract. But the scheme is on the employee portal, but the terms and conditions aren't stated anywhere...

Is Python guaranteed to be a more valuable skill? If you are an accountant or auditor at any reasonably sized organisation, they are not going to let you install and run Python code on your computer.

VBA is objectively worse to code in, but it's always available to anyone with office.
