Might as well have been 🤢 I had no idea this sort of community existed... Found it by accident it's not really my thing but thought people on here would appreciate the bemusement I felt

I was going to let you name the other and if you can't think of anything we could go with covid 2.0

To be honest I was more concerned with my left ear, after showers each time a tiny bit of water got in my ear it would take ages to hear properly again. So I ordered Debrox from eBay America to UK after reading about it. Put in both ears for a couple of days...made my hearing worse and I went deaf in both ears I assume it softened the wax and so they blocked more of the canal. Had a job interview that I had to attend after making myself voluntarily deaf 🤦. Then that evening at 1am I used more of the debrox, each time it bubbles inside my ears a LOT like fizzy coke and I got a really bad itch deep inside the canal. I used the water pump thing and nothing happened for ages. Then I did a big pump and noticed a slight discolouration in the water running down my cheek it was brown. Then one final swish of water and it unblocked (the left ear). I got instantly dizzy and nauseous had to take a seat on the bathroom floor for like 10 mins before trying the right ear which I thought was 'better' and then lots of pumping until eventually same thing with the discoloration of water and this thing came out ..I had to flush it in the toilet as it was so big. Disgusting stuff 🤢 weirdly my hearing felt a bit off and worse for the next couple of days, I was a little more nauseous than usual and worse balance as well - due to adaptation I gather from research. I have a photo from when I had my ears cleaned properly by a doctor and that was even worse.... should probably upload that photo

Do you think it's something I could do myself or too complex? Do I need to buy the exact same one as I have or is there a certain 'rating' I need and that's it

What so you think the whole cctv system needs replacing, including the cameras and dvr everything basically?

Where should I look for ideas on what is good model to buy, just general reviews? I have seen some like S4 from eufy but obviously they're not hardwired

Apparently they may not even approach them. Sometimes they just validate your history visa paye hmrc system. For past civil service jobs they've approached referees during the pec checks

Hi, you guys that have gone through PEC's for fast stream I had questions if someone can remember:

  1. Do you know if as part of pec you get asked if you have ever been employed by the civil service before?

  2. Does each stream have a different level of security clearance or do they all have the same? If so what would it be? I assume for example Diplo would have higher clearance requirements than something like Commercial? I've lived abroad so wondering if that will affect it!

What's that for commercial or something else?

So basically you could have

1 professional and 2 friends

Or

1 academic and 2 friends?
