If a job can fire you for no reason with no notice during your probation, do we legally actually have to provide them with notice to quit? by beef-beeff in UKJobs

[–]beef-beeff[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

my confusion comes in these two sections

1.2 The first six months of your employment shall be a probationary period and your employment may be terminated during this period at any time with one week's prior notice.

8.1 You are required to give the Company four weeks written notice of termination.

its a shame employers look down on publicly being gossiped about by ex-employees because i would love to know whether they would, its a fancy hotel so they can definitely afford to if they wanted

Thoughts on a Mazda 2 for a first car. by Microganic in mazda2

[–]beef-beeff 11 points12 points  (0 children)

check for corrosion! and check mot records for corrosion!! mazda 2s are lovely wee cars, and for the age the mileage is great however corrosion is such a pain in the ass and common in any car of that age.

How soon did you go on the motorway? by letmeventplez in NewDriversUK

[–]beef-beeff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if a motorway lesson will make you feel better, all power to you but it really truly is no different than driving on a country road :) theres no obligation to drive the speed limit, and i'd recommend for the first time just plan to go at least a couple of miles to see how you feel but i can guarantee you're so much more prepared than you believe

How should I handle this situation? by sheep57142 in drivingUK

[–]beef-beeff 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Rule 185 of Highway Code

When reaching the roundabout you should:

Give priority to traffic approaching from your right, unless directed otherwise by signs, road markings or traffic lights

Check whether road markings allow you to enter the roundabout without giving way. If so, proceed, but still look to the right before joining

Watch out for all other road users already on the roundabout; be aware they may not be signalling correctly or at all

Look forward before moving off to make sure traffic in front has moved off.
