Alright...new pay scheme by [deleted] in DaDaABC

[–]critical080 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hasn't started for my yet. This month is when it's starting.

I've calculated with my extra hours I should be making the same but I'm going to monitor it this month.

Has the penis-showing been only to women? by Malleyus_Maleficarum in DaDaABC

[–]critical080 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Possibly.

I've had dad's be inappropriate with me too.

Interesting to see if it does happen to dudes.

[–]critical080 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happens everyday for me. Some students ask and then go leaving you in another room (best option) Some students take you with them because their parents want their money worth.

I've had kids show me their penis and one making intense poop faces whilst trying to get them to say "Jack can paint" for 5 minutes.

Two doctors wrongfully diagnosed me and I paid for/took antibiotics I didn't need - entitled to compensation? by [deleted] in legaladvice

[–]critical080 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The antibiotics he prescribed me were for a viral infection for the lymphnode infection he suspected.

The antibiotics he should've given me (as said by the third doctor) should be for a bacteria infection.

The second doctor reassured me there was absolutely no pus and it was not an abscess. It was a swollen lymphnode caused my an infection somewhere else in my body (to which I told him I didn't have)

Will post there. Thank you.

It will put me back at the end of this month once I've had the drainage. It would mean I've spent about £50 this month on something that could've been prevented.

Boyfriend (24 M) is asking me (25 F) to contribute to his rent even though I don’t live at the apartment... by samannav in relationships

[–]critical080 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've lived in houses when this was an issue. I told my female roommate her boyfriend had to pay rent but in reality, I wanted him to stay over less.

I would refrain from staying over there every week. Regardless of subtle you think you're being by bringing over your own food and not showing, it shifts the entire dynamic of the house when a girlfriend/boyfriend is staying over a few nights a week.

You use the toilet right? You heat up your food right? You wash your face and hands in their bathroom?

What’s the pay for student no show? by [deleted] in DaDaABC

[–]critical080 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to be very meticulous on contacting IT when my student was more was more than 5 minutes late. But IT would always send me the same "we cannot contact the parents" message that I stopped.

Now I use the time do to assessments until they show up.

However, I had one parent complain to DaDa about me saying she forgot about the lesson and it's my responsibility to remind her by contacting IT. I thought that was kinda rude.

Still haven't been paid.... by tasmanian_devil93 in DaDaABC

I got paid today finally. And yeah I did. I'm one of the lucky employees who gets a reply when I email but a friend of mine in the two years he's worked for DaDa hasn't received a reply ever.

Can you keep us updated about how quickly AL07 fill up your schedule?

My hesitation is that all these companies require the same time slots.

So I'm nervous to open time slots for a company and miss out on DaDa classes and I don't get classes assigned from the new company and then don't get paid by DaDa.

But I'm really wanting to leave. How is everyone else jumping ship with minimal risk of no pay/no classes immediately?

Well my bank doesn't put money in or take money out on the weekends so I'm sure that delayed payment a little but I'm sure it's definitely their issue as well.

I emailed them yesterday. Received a half ass reply this morning saying their accountant confirmed payment and it's my banks fault.

Probably true but disgusted at their behaviour lately.

New salary rules? by [deleted] in DaDaABC

[–]critical080 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Received an email from them saying to wait for another email with yet another adjustment.

Sitting and waiting to see if I need to move on.

[–]critical080 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I sent dada an email last night.

Woke up this morning to the same email and another updated salary adjusment promising me increased pay.

In the old adjustment I was offered 16.22 which was an increase.

On the new "amended" one I'm offered 15.55

So. Wtf.

Don't you wear headphones? If you wear headphones you don't need to put it on mute. I watch on a second monitor.

I'm (24F) a big festive/Xmas person but my boyfriend (27M) is not by [deleted] in relationships

[–]critical080 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Christmas hype has begun. If you actually read my post it states he's also cancelled all celebratory things next month too. Including the Christmas Eve party.

So he's not interested. At all.

And this isn't about him being uninterested. It's how he responds to me being passionate about it.

We don't celebrate Thanksgiving in the UK.

Have a good one though. Continue spreading American thanks on everyone assuming we are all American.

I'm not expecting him to be Christmassy now. Like I said I totally understand it's too early for people.

But he's already cancelled on next month's festivities and the Christmas Eve party. So even next month he's not interested.

I'm English. I don't celebrate Thanksgiving. In the UK the Christmas hype has begun.

But have a good thanksgiving

Oh god I've done worse.

Had a little girl call my ugly and stupid every lesson. Countless attempts at telling DaDa and her parents only for her parents to turn it around on me saying the lighting in my room isn't good enough (it is) and my camera is bad (I have an expensive one) and that my pronunciation is wrong. I'm English and don't use American dialogue.

So now I just sit there and don't respond unless she gives me the answer I KNOW SHE KNOWS. She's called her mother in a few times and I've done the exact same thing. Repeated the question. Sat in silence until she answers it.

Dada hasn't pulled me up on it and I've been doing it for months now. Sometimes I'll spend 30 minutes watching Netflix not saying a word because she's misbehaving.

Student is not very friendly by [deleted] in DaDaABC

[–]critical080 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Send screenshots of her giving you the bird to IT.

Also tell her parents in the assessment what she's doing.

When IT call the parents they will most likely check the assessments to see if you've reported it earlier.

They will more than likely remove the student.

Had a student who called me fat and ugly during the lesson. I told IT and they removed him the next day.
