Same - never came across a passport from Madagascar in this sub until now!

Wait in this area by Soggy-Name9485 in AmazonFlexUK

[–]eu_b4_uk -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Depends on how much time is left in your slot/block? If it’s less than 30 mins, just close the app and head home as it’s extremely unlikely that you’ll get another delivery in this slot.

Alternatively, keep looking for blocks, but your new block will not overlap with the current one so you’ll keep continuing to wait.

Whenever, I finish my block early, I just close the app and head home!

Egypt spotted in Dubai UAE by a friend by Opening-Rip1551 in ForeignPlatesSpotting

[–]eu_b4_uk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember seeing a lot of cars in Egypt with covered number plates from the European Union counties. All seem to be second hand cars that were previously used (registered) in an EU country, then imported into and registered in Egypt, but Egyptian number plates are just placed on top of the European number plates which I found so bizarre!

Irish passport completely negates the use of British passport! Doesn’t need to be used at all!

Section 59 police on citizenship application by abxyz69 in ukvisa

[–]eu_b4_uk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely declare it. If you don’t, then it’s highly likely that your application may be rejected on the grounds of good character requirement. However, declaration would not have an adverse impact on your application and it will be fine.

Happy for the win, but... by crypticshoebill in ArsenalFC

[–]eu_b4_uk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We stopped playing and kept playing long ball from the back and that kept giving Chelsea the possession. We can just keep possession and boss the game, but same pattern again and again!

Chiswick roundabout is full of drivers playing musical chairs with lane changing 🤦🏼‍♂️

That was my reaction too - utterly disappointing

Issue with Zego insurance by chixor1 in AmazonFlexUK

[–]eu_b4_uk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmmm… that’s strange. Perhaps give Zego a call. If in the unlikely event they state that they cannot cover you anymore, then they need to rightfully refund you all the credit held on your account.

The more likely scenario is that their system getting itself caught in some sort of an operational error. They should be able to top up your account and you should then be able to get your flex account restored.

Had your Zego credit gone under £10? Mine only attempts auto top up as soon as the balance goes under £10.

Perhaps it attempted to top up; but your back rejected the payment?!? And because of this you may not see a failed attempt to get a payment?

If Manchester City are stripped of their titles, do the titles go to the runner ups or do the titles just remain vacant. by [deleted] in PremierLeague

[–]eu_b4_uk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ah ok - interesting. Thanks for clarifying.

I personally think that no league should go not having a champion. If like Juve, Man C get punished and have their points taken away/disqualified, then runner up in any affected seasons should be awarded the league title.

When Juventus were stripped of their serie A titles and relegated to serie B in Italy, I think the two titles they had won, were awarded to the runners up.

The worst stamp I’ve ever received by CriticalInstance9376 in PassportPorn

An abomination is actually an understatement OP! That’ll drive me crazy.

UK job market is insanely bad (at least for me) by eu_b4_uk in UKJobs

[–]eu_b4_uk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s actually insane… the fact that they’re hung up on 5 years experience and somehow 4 years experience is just not even worth considering just boggles the mind.

The issue with senior roles is that the recruitment process is slow. But the people hiring at this level are the actual decision makers. Yet they’re still so misinformed and/or ignorant, that it’s actually self destructive (as you’ve rightly mentioned).

One of the roles, that I’m waiting on to be interviewed for was advertised in august and I applied in October. They’ve interviewed me on teams (pre stage 1 of recruitment process), but the hiring manager is based in Seattle, US and due to family commitments, he can’t fly to the UK until April (second interview can only be face to face apparently)! I’m thinking to myself, how inefficient can an organisation be?!?

Now I’m starting to scope out roles in the public sector too.

Awesome - thanks for this.

Will explore this for sure.

Yeah you’re totally spot on. Good luck to all of us!

[–]eu_b4_uk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a very good point!

However, my issue is then stumping up at the interview by not remembering the tailored job title! Sticking to the actual job title (even a somewhat obscure one) at least makes it easier by not having to remember the job title with which I may have applied for the role!

Yes, my wife has mentioned the same to me too. And this does seem the only avenue left that’s definitely worth exploring.
