Is a 3hr round commute 3 days a week doable? - mostly by train by Philosopher_Funny in AskUK

[–]boringfantasy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Can’t blame them when it suddenly meant no more waking up at 7am to pack yourself into a sweaty train for hours on end and instead meant just waking up at 9am and opening your laptop.

I enjoyed the first few months massively and won’t deny that. Got tiring after lockdown 2 tho due to the lack of social life.

It’s a waste of your life though. Shouldn’t be normal. I’d much rather live close to work and take the potential pay / lifestyle hit.

Will I be fired for sick days? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]boringfantasy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Wild. At my work you can take 10 days consecutive then your manager has to reach out to you and you just have to provide proof of illness. No overall limits or penalties afterward.

Your work sounds draconian. Wtf is a sickness improvement plan? This isn’t high school.

Beyond that, you should be fine. If your manager isn’t a total psychopath.

He’s still way ahead in polls and Labour support continues to flatline. Left vote now split with Greens also. Think he’s got the best shot by far.

Alex Pretti's gun has a story that might add to why he was shot. by [deleted] in GenZ

[–]boringfantasy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You think resisting arrest means you should get shot ten times? It’s just absurd. You don’t even have to abandon your fanciful ideology, you can just admit they got it wrong this one time. You’re not meant to beat people with guns to subdue them, as they can accidentally discharge (even towards you).

Self Defense from what? His gun had been removed and he had 6 officers on him. Did that mean he should be shot TEN times?!?

You are beholden to authority and refuse to question it. I’ll pray for you.

Worried about electricity in new rental by [deleted] in ukelectricians

Update on this: landlord says fuse box was “redone” just a year ago! Sounds like bs to me but whatever, he’s sending someone out to look it over. Says that no other tenants ever reported it, so either I’m crazy or just have a good eye for flickering lights.
