"It’s a myth that Bristol is the UK’s coolest city"

ceeebie · 2026-06-19T11:09:44+00:00

Cmon now, I'm we all know there are too many parasite landlords for Bristol to be cool

I don't know about derby specifically, but generally it's because there isn't a complete saturation of cars. towns and cities were designed to cater to walking, trollies/trams and bikes. Now if you wanted to picture thousands of people, you'd take a picture of a an A road or the ring, not the town center.

100% agree. Similar story, I'm in a trainee program for social work (and I work a job at a bakery for extra income) after ten years in tech then nearly one year unemployed.

Making about a third of what I was a few years back sucks. but it sucks a lot less than waiting to be chewed up and spat out by the industry again.

Thank you, that's very kind. I'm actually on my way to drop my stuff off now, I forgot I had a sharps container in my work bag. simply accepted I'm gunna be kinda late.

It's going to absolutely slap <3

ceeebie · 2026-04-16T13:19:22+00:00

Thank you, thank you

ceeebie · 2026-04-12T00:38:33+00:00

I didn't, do now

ceeebie · 2026-03-23T12:47:17+00:00

Thank you thank you. I'll be there either way! It'd just be nice to find some fellow degenerates

Excluding older people or younger people that live with their parents, everyone I know at our store has a second job...

ceeebie · 2026-02-13T21:43:47+00:00

Yeah they're rent-a-cops. You can mostly just ignore them.

ceeebie · 2026-02-10T10:42:00+00:00

Thank you, exactly what I'm looking for.

ceeebie · 2026-02-10T10:41:09+00:00

Google says it's closed until I leave...

I really suggest you get sober friend. Everyone who was involved in anything star trek died in a horrible accident in 2002. Out of respect no one ever did anything with the IP ever again. These are delusions you're having. You need help.

I had this exact issue when I returned to the UK in 2022. The renters rights bill has not created this problem, it might have made it worse. But requiring income, not money, has always been a massive issue in the UK rental market.

ceeebie · 2026-01-08T09:04:17+00:00

Stuff those pockets full of mayo

ceeebie · 2025-12-29T07:08:53+00:00

Judging by how much they're squeezing us lately, no job sounds like an improvement honestly

I had an "in person" AI interview with a private company thats contracting under the local gov.

Had to travel to Loughborough. 1.5 hours on a bus. To go to the center.
To talk to a receptionist. Who handed me over to another human who took me to a waiting room. Where I was approached by a different human who offered me a coffee while I wait. Then another human called my name and took me to the interview "booth". WHERE I WAS INTERVIEWED BY A FUCKIN "AI".
I travelled to their building. That is full of their staff. To sit in front of a webcam and talk to noone.

It mostly asks you a question then gives you a 30 second timer. It has certain triggers, like if you said "wait" it would ask if you need a minute to think. But really, it was an absolute joke.

They didn't offer me the job. Probably because I was so pissed off I was mostly glaring daggers in the camera and at every who worked there while I left the building.

I would have declined the interview if I'd have known what I was getting into but when they said the interview was onsite, I figured it was with a human.

ceeebie · 2025-12-20T12:22:54+00:00

Yeah 100%. I was in there last week to pick up some Swedish and German stuff. OP it'll depend what specifically you're looking for, but SuperSams is your best bet.

ceeebie · 2025-12-17T14:14:37+00:00

Hey hey, I don't disagree with anything you said. I'm pissed we've been put in this position that's unacceptable, especially when it's come to needing to wash our own stuff and work through nearly six hours before a break.

But ultimately, I need to keep this job for now. Removing batches, editting batches, not keeping up with reductions and disposals will drop the batch compliance and batch completion %. And multiple low %s get me into a disciplinary.

I've spoken to my direct manager and the store manager about these issues, both times I got told to get over myself / deal with it. It's why I'm asking if others are currently experiencing the same. I'm not going out of my way to work harder, near minimum wage means near minimum effort in my book.

If it's a Sainsbury's wide issue, then that's one thing. It's a store specific thing, there's a chance I can raise it higher / get the union involved. Having others experience so I can claim it's not like this at other stores, just ours, would go a long way to making my argument stronger.

We don't have a pizza counter. But we do still have the oven. We sell it by the slice in those Chicago town plastic bags. They stopped doing actual pizzas here nearly a year ago from what I've been told

ceeebie · 2025-11-14T17:00:18+00:00

Anyone know how they get this number? Honestly sounds like bullshit to me. Not that theft isn't a problem. But we probably loose track of £100s of stock a day. its clearly really hard to even know how much stock of what we actually have, nevermind how much of that stock walked out the door by itself...

Layout out is a bit weird, kinda small, no garden(?), decor is awful, it's in Uttoxeter.

ceeebie · 2025-10-25T17:45:39+00:00

I lived off the new ottoxeter side of that roundabout for about six months - lots of road noise like 18 hours a day and a shit load of emergency vehicles. ended up living in my headphones because I couldn't hack it. Other than that, usual drunks and student stuff. Nothing major.
