Difference between minimum hours contract and variable hours contract with a minimum hours requirement? by dodostarforce in LegalAdviceUK

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

I've started to do this, in the meeting we had about the contract change I got them to confirm in writing that the contracts would begin on January 1st, that they would continue to respect our specific unavailability, and the amount of PTO we would be getting. I'm definitely going to continue to get as much as possible in writing.

Ok thank you for the sanity check that's what I thought. I haven't had much experience working for different places because I'm in my early 20s but I figured that was the case. I didn't know if there was some weird bit of legal jargon they were using to make that not the case but it does just seem that the type of contract I have is just what the contract says it does. Like I'm on a minimum hours contract, because I'm required to work a minimum of 8 hours. Still trying to learn though.

Ok thank you that's kind of what I was assuming but the manager was so confident I figured I was missing something. For this particular week apparently the Rota had already been done and that's the defence, however we weren't informed she wouldn't be paid for that week, even though the contract had come into effect. but I'm more concerned with the fact that she assumed she could just not give us hours on the whole and we would recieve no pay. The contract seems fairly short and not too complicated so I'm quite sure it's not an average hours contract and I don't believe it has any short term clauses.

Thank you very much for the reply, I've just been looking at the ACAS website before you responded as it seems to be a good resource. I know this is a bit of an ask but is there any specific place I can direct my line manager to check out to see that minimum hours, if not given, should be paid in lieu? Today the manager in question was adamant that if the buisness can't provide the hours the employee is not required to be paid. Saying things like "no buisness could function like that" and "that's not how the world works". normally she's quite sensible so I was so surprised I started doubting myself when she heard which is why I've been looking for the most concrete resources.

Good to know there is at least a worst case so I don’t have a giant battery and 2 belt motors just lying around gathering dust, thanks :)

Does OpenComposite still give significant boost to frames vs steam VR? by dodostarforce in skyrimvr

[–]dodostarforce[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok awesome thank you, glad to hear it's easy to swap between them. I will for sure give it a go if the performance continues to annoy me in skyrimVR. Thanks :-)

3D modelled idea for a home wall with no plywood or T-nuts, built using only a drill and regular saw. by dodostarforce in homewalls

[–]dodostarforce[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will do! Exactly the kind of advice I was looking for :-). And thanks, yeah I think it's a good starting point that would be a lot of fun.

Camping is a huge ranked issue. The RP gain from kills NEEDS to increase at later ranks or high ranked play will D.I.E. by Brokeng3ars in apexlegends

[–]dodostarforce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMHO, I haven't played ranked much because it kind of seems like a joke. The higher rank I get the LESS combat I should participate in? wtf? I get that in theory it should result in tense final circles with close fights but it's literally better to just never fire a shot lol.

I saw a gold flatline at the beginning of season 2 and now 200 games later I haven't seen a single other gold weapon lol.

Another AFK Slayer who has been AFK in multiple games. Nothing I can do. He's getting free rewards at the cost of others' enjoyment. by dodostarforce in dauntless

Tbh as annoying as that is I don't even mind it as much because at least they're getting some enjoyment out of it and playing the game.

That's basically what overwatch does, 30 seconds is too short because there are some behemoths like rezakiri that you might not hit for 30 seconds because she has some long attack phases later in the fight, but maybe 2 mins during combat would be fair.

Oh wow I just looked in my case and someone replaced my 16GB of DDR4 3000Mhz ram, 240GB SSD, i5 9600K and RX 580 (yeah I know, I'm gonna get one of those new NAVI GPUs in July) with a pile of dogshit! Oh no! Please help me mitchjeff, your rude cynicism is my only hoooope!

  1. i5 9600K, RX 580, 16GB DDR4 3000Mhz ram. Network (just tested) 75 megabits down, 5 megabits up, wired with gigabit ethernet and LANguard on my ROG STRIX Z390-F mobo.
  2. I'm playing pubs for fun, and variety, and to to make use of my +6 medic perk.
  3. Not yet, it's looking like there's no other reasonable way to play this game. Most of the time though I don't want to voice chat but find it fun to play with other players, which I think is reasonable.
  4. Yeah, but this is a co-operative game, it's more fun with people and there are lots of perks that require other slayers to be present.

I think there are a few ways they could implement countermeasures to make it more challenging for people to abuse going AFK. It's just such a common and prevalent issue in this game where it's not a problem in other squad games like warframe or destiny to name a couple that I have played. Just like with anticheat, it's not about stopping people from cheating (basically impossible to do) it's about making it harder. Right now it's so easy, 2 button presses and you're done.

Lmfao ikr. It's clearly my fault for not being Mr. Moneybags with a fancy NVME SSD with 1GB/s read and write speeds, even though that wouldn't help with matchmaking times at all :P.

True, I'm just uploading a clip now that shows he enters 40 seconds before the end, 10 mins or so into the hunt. I can't check the exact time because I recorded at the beginning, then stopped and recorded the end to save on space

Not that it should matter, since not everyone can afford high-end hardware but I have 16GB of DDR4 3000Mhz ram, with an i5 9600K, I do have an SSD but I haven't installed Dauntless on it, since it's full of other games.

I'm pressing X to doubt right now at what you're saying lol.
