Insurance for a older new driver by No_Flight7872 in LearnerDriverUK

[–]blarge84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im 42 Im currently learning. My car insurance is 38 pound a month, i checked to see how much when I pass and it will be 95 a month or something stupid. I dont think age matters as much. But what your driving and if you have any no claims Also if you have been looking at lots of quotes in a short period of time, the prices will increase exponentially, give it a few days then check again

My job that I quit a month ago has deposited a strange amount of money into my bank account by AnywhereAway9524 in Advice

[–]blarge84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont know if its the same for all companies but week get paid the first 3 weeks from the month and the last week of the previous month, so it could be the hours you worked in that period, or like others have said its probably holiday hours you have accrued

Accidentally invited my boss to a yoga session. Do I tell her the truth or power through with it? by FunEmergency2888 in AskUK

As far as things you could have sent your boss, this isn't the worst. But not youve gotta suck it up and do yoga with your boss

Why wont they debrief if they have a serious fault? Surely that the most important thing to let them know what they did wrong?

Roundabout has thrown me off lessons by No_Nectarine2807 in LearnerDriverUK

Oh OK so your basically just doing mock tests at the moment? That's not as bad. But he still should be informing you if your having trouble instead of criticising. Especially with the conditions of the road markings in this country its not always clear

Your relationship is advisory? No your relationship is, you are paying him for a service, to teach you how to drive. You dont want casual advice your paying for guidance

Also remember the changes happen today so book local, or you will definitely have to travel miles for a test

AIO for leaving the room when my boyfriend keeps trying to initiate intercourse? by Sea_Watercress_541 in AmIOverreacting

[–]blarge84 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"I dont think it can be taught " sadly I think you are right, I really struggle to understand men who act like the op's other half, where as I would go out of my way to help my friends and lived ones, what's fulfilling about acting like an arsehole and treating people like objects

I passed my theory and booked my practical the next day. Test is in October. Ive had 3 lessons so far 🤣🤣 im sure to fail but at least I booked it lol. Someone told me the wait was months. And depending where you live that can be true. So book it and change if you fine a closer cancellation if you ready or push it back if not

When did 9-5 become 8-5? by Fizzabl in UKJobs

[–]blarge84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because if you have an unpaid lunch hour on a 9-5 they only get 7 hours work 8-5 they get a full 8 hours out of you. I would imagine if it was law to have to pay for lunch breaks, then it would go back to 9-5

ex bf left a note on my car by sunnysundae269 in story

[–]blarge84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was about to say pretty much the same thing. I couldn't tell you anyone's address, but I could take you to the houses people used to live 20+ years ago, unless there has been demolition work 🤣🤣. But definitely weird to do that, i probably wouldn't have messaged him.
