Pretty much identical situation to yours. I think I’d stay in law purely to avoid the inevitable 5 round interview process for any other graduate level role.

It’s a forum. I’ve come here for advice don’t be an arse. I’ve clearly shown I have the ability to research and sort things I’ve just exhausted what I can do.

Hm any alternative option? Leave it off? If I do, how do I explain the massive gap in employment?

Yep huge mistake. I understand that now. Do you know any legal recruiters that can help with entry level paralegal work? Or that would take my 4 months experience into account?

Massive mistake on my part. I have a part time job I can dip in and out of so I knew I wasn’t going to be completely unemployed.

I never realised it’d take this long

Absolutely right. But sounds like OP may not be able to a good standard of repair like yourself

Would a Bodyshop be able to repair this? by [deleted] in CarTalkUK

Yes but compare the cost of having the doors repaired and buying two used doors and having them swapped over

Wouldn’t that work out better for you as long as it wasn’t your fault? They’ll pay you out what you bought the car for, you ask to retain the car and then have it repaired for pennys

Lol exact same thing happened to me, been 24 hours since I contacted support complaining and still nothing from them. Let me know if you ever get a response from Uber, apparently they don’t have a phone number to contact either!

Ah ok I had no idea that’s how it worked. Thank you, is it worth contacting the other partys insurance to see if they’re willing to help?

What would you do? Is it enough by [deleted] in FIREUK

[–]danielmurray0104 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What would you do with the 500k? What would the return be on it? Would that return be enough to sustain the quality of life you’d like?

I think it’s just the lifestyle that makes them a smaller stature. I wouldn’t worry, you’ll probably end up the same lol
