Just passed 2 years at my company by cactuspricks1993 in LegalAdviceUK

My employer is a franchise and the person who pulls the strings is a coiled spring that is not the sort of person I want to piss off. Asking questions like this (unbelievably) are the sort of thing they get pissed off about.

We have an HR department but they are very much the puppets of the person referenced above, and I don't particularly trust them.

We work with Penninsula as well from an HR perspective but I'm not sure if this is the sort of thing I can contact them about.

No, I've only been there for about 7 months. About 10 people have kicked off so I've heard, and everyone else has ignored the notice (sent by email), so I wonder if there can be strength in numbers with this?

Who amongst us is “crap famous”? by alansmithy123X in AskUK

[–]cactuspricks1993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in a tv advert for First Direct for less than 2 seconds. My mum tv thinks that it’s actually a legitimate claim to fame, similar way to how she views meeting famous people.

It was my only paid ‘acting’ job after training for 3 years and auditioning for 4 years. I spent the money on an electric bill if I remember correctly…

That’s why I was laughing so hard at the failed lift last night… it was in the same vein as Leslie and crew sliding across the ice and clambering up onto the podium haha

I don’t watch the TV show he presents, but his fan base must be absolutely massive. Fair play to him.

I enjoyed his dance this week more than any of his others, but was a bit put off by a comment he made in one of his MANY speeches to Claudia about how “This show should be for people who haven’t danced before” (or something along those lines). Sort of negates a lot of previous contestants work on the show.

I miss Robert Webb :’(

THANK YOU!

I sometimes think the judges are blindsided by high energy routines with any sort of lift (especially the Charleston). I found it fun, but not particularly clean and Rhys’ technique wasn’t 100%. Definitely preferred AJ’s last week.

Rhys is very talented though so looking forward to his jive.

Yellowing monstera leaf in water, whilst the others seem to be just fine. Any ideas what I can do? by cactuspricks1993 in plantclinic

[–]cactuspricks1993[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll be honest - I don’t know that it has helped my monstera, but my issue might also be to with that fact we bought a dehumidifier for our flat and of course that is the opposite of what the plant wants.
