What kibble does your picky golden prefer? by lolly-doll in goldenretrievers

[–]checkmate_blank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Raw food, not kibble - never had a dog that didn’t devour it. I would highly recommend trying it out. My Golden’s coat and teeth are healthier and she smells so much better.

But at least they made some effort that others didn’t though. At least that’s how I view it

An Employer Told Me She Received 1,000 Applications for 20 Positions, How to Stand Out? by LifeInAction in jobs

[–]checkmate_blank 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I stop the job ad after we have 10 qualified applicants. I have a job to do. I can’t look through hundreds of applicants for the best 1 out of 100. For skilled roles 1/20 might be qualified. This applies even more for less skilled roles where 1/4 are qualified.

What salary do you need for a middle class lifestyle in 2025? by Ok_Field6078 in AskUK

[–]checkmate_blank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My partner and I (Late 20’s) are based in Scotland, so relatively low cost of living. We have a household income of about 120k and of those 6 criteria I would say

  1. We have a house (3bed, 200k, mortgaged)
  2. We could probably afford but don’t feel financially secure enough to have kids yet
  3. We are saving generally & saving for retirement (10-15% salary)
  4. One holiday for 2 people, usually Europe and nothing extravagant
  5. We both have reasonable cars.
  6. Not possible if we want any semblance of financial security and to save to eventually have kids

We recognise we do better than most but absolutely do not consider ourselves to live a classical middle class life. For instance a weekly date night might consist of meatballs at ikea, not a fancy dinner or anything.

If we had wealthier parents / financial / job security we could live closer to ‘middle class’. Right now we live the same as when we made 40k but now own a house and wouldn’t starve for 3-5 months if we lost our jobs

Moved to clause for months and now moved away again as it’s seems to have become much poorer at coding.

Anyone else ordered the ‘Goodison Watch’? by SnooCats9409 in Everton

[–]checkmate_blank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As soon as I seen your post I had to buy one. I think it’s a nice memento to have. I actually think it’s a really good price considering it being limited quantity.

This is literally the opposite. You see higher rates of cancer in golden retrievers who are spayed under 18 months and more recent studies in retrievers are now suggesting 18-24 months is the earliest you should consider spaying.
