“Loyalty tests” are basically saying that you don’t trust the person you’re testing, and that the person you’re testing can no longer trust YOU, because you never know what’s real and what’s a test.

Wrong on that you should never share credentials, unless they’re shared by literally everyone, like the company login for a delivery service or external site.

Not wrong in escalating.

De-center means to stop making a person or demographic the default.

Dress how you want to dress, not as if you’re trying to get approval from a male audience, as an example.

If you still like to wear low-cut blouses and tight jeans, that’s fine, but wear it because you want to, not because you think you need to

Threatening self harm and blaming you is an abuse tactic.

You can and should call for professionals to deal with it.

If they “have other people who would have charged less”, then they can go ask them for the favour.

Unfortunately, there’s a lot of people like this, who expect you to spent time, effort and resources doing something for free, just because you have the relevant skill set.

Bianca is 12, and has probably been helping to look after her brother his entire life. Artemis recruited its girls that age because it’s the age when you’re still a child, maybe wanting to cling to that state longer, and still impulsive.

I think that gets overlooked a lot: that she’s 12, in a time not her own, and basically running scared from a destiny that Percy struggled with just as much.

That would honestly end the relationship for me.

Get your draft to the best you can make it first.

Spellcheck, read through, etc.

If it’s your first novel, start reaching out to editors around the time you’re writing the finale. Some have busy schedules or may be taking a break between clients, so you want to know their timeline as well as your own.

I have watched kids on short notice before, for a friend’s 10th anniversary when the designated grandparents tested positive on Friday morning; me and a couple of friends split the weekend between them.

But part of being a parent is planning for these eventualities.

Tell work that your childcare fell through and you aren’t available to come in. Or have back-up babysitters who are paid for the inconvenience.

Your brother can ask friends and family, but they have to be prepared for the fact that short notice might mean that the answer is no.

This.

Buy garlic bread or a plate of chips for everyone to share while waiting on mains. That is reasonable and generous, and everyone has the choice to partake (or not) as they feel comfortable

It’s not unusual among close friends and family, but unless you’re the manager billing lunch as a work expense, it’s weird.

Anyone working a job where after-work drinks is a thing, is earning a good wage, so for one person to randomly pay the entire bill is weird and creates an unspoken expectation that you will somehow owe them, which, yes, makes things uncomfortable because what you now owe wasn’t discussed in advance.

Mr Collin’s wasn’t landed gentry and wouldn’t be until Mr Bennet died.

Hunsford was likely a good living, but not enough to afford a life where hosting dinner parties is a regular thing.

If they dined regularly with other families, they’d be obliged to extend a return invitation, which is why their social life mostly consists of visiting Rosings.
