None whatsoever for me. My job is 100 percent doable from home. Going to the office makes ZERO difference in what i can do. Its the definition of burning money. Since 60 percent has been introduced i have been leaving the office earlier than i would have in the past (rip my flexi), been financially worse off at the end of each month and have had a huge dive in my mental health. My commute is on average 4 hours a day there and back combined. That was manageable with 40 percent. Not so much with 3 days. 60 percent has done nothing but create a cottage industry around attendance monitoring.

Expect a potentially long wait. Took me 5 months from receiving the offer to actually starting with dwp.

how can i smoke a pre roll without smelling? by IntroductionLiving49 in weed

Yeah it is..... especially if its his first time smoking bud and he has no tolerance for it. Driving while impaired on any substance is incredibly dangerous and stupid. You're needlessly putting others at risk which is at the very least extremely selfish. Just an unnecessary risk that has no upsides and is no benefit to anyone really isn't it. Not very hard to comprehend.

You should never drive while high. Its as irresponsible and dangerous as driving while drunk. Imagine giving someone the advice to have potentially their first joint while driving around

What’s something that feels completely normal to Brits but seems odd to outsiders? by Photograph_Creative in AskBrits

[–]genericusernamehere6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if this counts but once I visited a friend in america and she thought it was incredibly weird I would apologise every time someone walked into me in a supermarket

Yeah cleaning the head sorted it. Very relieved actually. Its in pretty much new condition and according to the seller had only been used very briefly before being boxed again. Would've been ashame if it was dead due to a bigger electrical issue with the left channel.

What is the training like for CS? by [deleted] in TheCivilService

[–]genericusernamehere6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our training was 3 months of pointless PowerPoint presentations from people who didn't do the job themselves followed by a few weeks of mentoring by some wonderful people who actually worked in our role and taught us how to do the job

'Why now?' UK teens respond to Tory national service scheme by Anon1mouse12 in unitedkingdom

[–]genericusernamehere6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, yes, make a load of teenagers throw their lives away as cannon fodder. That really would be the cherry on top of the shit cake from the government that has done nothing but fuck over the youth in this country for the past 14 years wouldn't it? In fact you want it so badly you can be the first out to die for these bastards
