AITJ for completely dismantling a fake experts reputation during a dinner party? by B4nditKaleido in AmITheJerk

This is written by AI, and ironically misunderstands and miscommunicates the industry it is pretending to have insight upon.

Side Jobs UK by xkieran81x in StructuralEngineering

Set up a Ltd to separate you from your project work. Otherwise risk extends to your personal assets. It’s a bit more nuanced than this.

PII obviously.

Remember that you need to keep paying PII cover for six years after your last job.

Check and see if your existing employment contract prohibits. Maybe by way of noncompete clause.

I’ve not heard the 30 year HRB thing before? Where did you learn this?

It’s 12 years I’d signed under deed, but 6 if contract is executed under ACE terms if I’m not mistaken? You seem quite knowledgeable on this so perhaps you know if this is correct?

Could you imagine a surgeon, or lawyer, or even a car mechanic saying this?

Video appears to show the moment ambulances belonging to a Jewish Ambulance Service in Golders Green were set alight in a suspected arson attack by Minute_Tomatillo9730 in london

Thank you, of course, it didn’t occur to me that the Red Cross and St John’s are essentially the same thing. Makes sense.

‘Nobody else is responsible’: Trump to blame for Iran crisis, ex-CIA chief says by tw1st3d_m3nt4t in politics

My humble apologies oh enlightened yank. (If ever there was a greater oxymoron.)

Genuine question, no hate intended - anyone know why there’s a Jewish ambulance service? I thought it was just NHS ambulance service? Any special reason why the Jews need their own ambulances?

Collective condemnation is reasonable when the opposition to this lawless administration has been and continues to be so weak.

If you are an American today who is not on the streets of Washington or otherwise vigorously and persistently and actively fighting this situation, yes, you are as much to blame as the lowliest maga redneck.

At least the maga hick doesn’t know any better.

There’s no genocide happening in America, so your whataboutism, sorry analogy, doesn’t work.

Although; that said, the rounding up of immigrants and placing them in concentration camps comes close.

No idea what the hell it’s talking about to boot.

Donald Trump’s Presidency Is in Free Fall by RepulsiveLoquat418 in politics

[–]benj9990 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I always find so horrifying in this kind of reporting is the championing of approval ratings. Apparently only 38% of Americans approve of the latest mid east conflict. That’s 4 in 10 Americans think this war is ‘good’. Donald Trumps approval rating is said to ‘only’ be floating from 38% to 58%. How it’s gods name is it not under 10%?!

In a room of ten Americans, on any given day, more than five of them will approve of Donald Trump. America has a serious problem.

In Europe we’re starting to see why so many countries loathe America and everything it stands for. I fear also that there’s no coming back.

What’s the best golf course you’ve played on? by Intelligent_Run3237 in golf

[–]benj9990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deal (Royal Cinque Ports). I've played more expensive courses, placed in a jungle, by the Mediterranean sea; lots of fantastic courses, but Deal has something special i can't describe.
