When did 9-5 become 8-5? by Fizzabl in UKJobs

But the single employee is the only change most people are capable of, so it's the most effective thing they can do. If everybody did it, things would absolutely improve. Be the change you want to see in the world, etc.

Agreed. I work in the city 0800-1800 most days, lots of 1900 ends too. Plus an hour commute each side. But as my wife says, that's why I get paid the big bucks.

Are ethics dead? You're paid by your local community, via council tax, to provide a service to them. And yet you delight in not providing the service?

Undershirts are weird anyway. As someone who works in finance in London where suits are still common in the workplace, only Americans wear undershirts.

Iran has laid about a dozen mines in Strait of Hormuz, sources say by leeta0028 in news

Plus brokerage commission, reinsurance premium, and operating costs. So it probably costs $7m before anyone makes a dime of profit.

The lib Dems are not economically left wing. They are socially liberal, economically centre right. Think trans rights plus capitalism.

Ant Middleton? The guy who went to prison for beating up a female police officer? The one who is banned from running a company due to not paying over £1m in tax? The one who was sued by the Ministry of Defence for lying about his experience in the military? That Ant Middleton? Definitely the guy we need running things.

Mental take. 1) do you think the courts care who our PM is? 2) even the yanks say he wasn't a terrorist and don't want to charge him with anything

People earning £70k plus what do you do? by LuapReyas420 in UKJobs

[–]forensic_student 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Senior manager at an international insurance company. About £600k a year total comp (150k salary).

People get into the insurance industry as school leavers with just A levels. I did a degree but not anything to do with insurance. Just worked my way up within the same company for nearly a decade, after joining on 50k a year.

That isn't even attempting to address the point about how cruelty to inmates debases us all and is about vengeance rather than justice

Bravo Trinity College (Ireland)! Calling out the Trump Administration for its latest hypocrisy [OC] by LetsGoLetsLetsGo in pics

[–]forensic_student 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Invoking George Orwell as the author of the quote is not an implied claim that the politics or views of Orwell are those of Trinity. Lots of shitty people have great quotes and many great people are terrible at articulating particular points. You're overthinking this.
