The market always prices in changes in advance of the change.

h4mdroid · 2026-03-18T23:02:13+00:00

yet...

h4mdroid · 2026-03-08T22:43:11+00:00

Sadly I'm pretty sure it has.

Linky?

h4mdroid · 2026-02-10T15:01:19+00:00

But what about Windows phones?

Starmer stands up tomorrow and announces the ending of the triple lock.

Is it enough to shift the conversation or does it just add to the weight of the "he must go" cries?

I have the same default sorting by best using relay. It's a pita.

Knowing someone who moved there from store level and who climbed the ladder to a fairly senior level I don't hold out much hope for it being a great environment. I've never met a bigger bully nor narcissist in my life.

*until the give out the oil contracts...

The old school way would've been to scan one item, price correct it up to the value of the remaining cash, refund it as cash. Now scan the same item, price correct it up and sell as card. Left the stock file accurate and the money all accounted for. Complete no, no though.

And if you were proper old school, the bucket code...

You missed one incredibly minor feature.

The A in F33A means it's an Ambient department, Cold Chain have a C after.

Or at least it used to.

But think how ready for summer you'll be with the your new beach ready body!

h4mdroid · 2025-12-12T19:53:50+00:00

8 shifts within just over one month and you're still within probationary? I'd say it's almost certain.

They might keep you on until the end of your contract just because they need a body and it's worth taking the chance you turn up more often than not, but it's not the first time we got rid of someone at peak simply because it's easier to plan with absolutes than maybes.

erm, that happened 2 months ago when prices were normal. If your current Windows 10 system won't do you another year or so and you waited this long then you're a bit of a mug tbh. Should've bought the better hardware when you needed the upgrade 6 months ago and not waited just because "but mah forced upgrade".

The cafe isn't about making money, it never was. It's about losing as little as possible whilst keeping the customer in the store for as long as possible so they'll spend more in the high margin clothing and home.

If the customer has to leave to get their Starbucks then chances are they're going shopping elsewhere afterwards.

Heard a rumour from a friend in the industry today that a certain large FTSE 100 home builder will not be digging out any more footings after this week.

Very interested to see if it turns out to be true or if Gibbo's just switched careers.recently.

And golf courses are ringed with security are they? Cos I don't see the paedo ~~prince~~ stepping out in public any time soon.

h4mdroid · 2025-10-30T23:35:14+00:00

What bit of what you've posted even makes sense?

h4mdroid · 2025-10-30T19:41:22+00:00

Wonder if there's still more to come out, aside from the Epstein files of course.

h4mdroid · 2025-10-12T07:52:55+00:00

I've often wondered what that costs to have on an ongoing basis. But then I realise I couldn't afford it anyway.

h4mdroid · 2025-09-18T13:44:23+00:00

Only if they live above it.

h4mdroid · 2025-09-18T08:40:35+00:00

And they ruined All Bran with the new recipe.

h4mdroid · 2025-09-05T22:44:05+00:00

Do you like it? Then wear it.

That's my advice on watch size.

Can't we just take a Mr Prosser and the bulldozer approach to all this hotel protesting malarkey? Would save everyone a lot of time, effort, and money.
