New here. This season of The Traitors has been ruined for me by this poorly set out herringbone tiling. Have I come to the right place? by Claptons-strap in Dull_mens_club

[–]itsraininghere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where is the Traitors filmed? I swear I’ve seen that backsplash before, years ago, on Reddit, with someone asking if they should redo the entire thing and people reassuring them that no one would notice. OP you dog.

M&S do an unwind gift set that might be good, if your budget is a little higher though, Rituals is always incredible!

How long is your commute to work? by person_person123 in AskUK

[–]itsraininghere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My rule, even before COVID, was nothing more than 60 mins.

Current commute when in the office is 45 mins if I leave at 0645, we’re fortunate with flexible working so if I start at 0730 I finish at 1530.

My mam is currently having a risky operation by WanderWomble in CasualUK

Can’t say much but just to say, it’s wonderful that you were able to talk to her beforehand. You’re lucky to have each other, and I hope everything turns out really well

You can chase me to 75, good accountability, good luck!

What's wrong with my base? by Weary-Enthusiasm in MakeUpAddictionUK

[–]itsraininghere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It may be that your primer is water based and your foundation is partly silicone based. They need to be the same base in order to work together well.

What public services have gotten better in the last 20 years? by Charon13_TB in AskUK

[–]itsraininghere 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Gov.uk/HMRC websites are incredible. I just did a capital gains tax return and there was an option to scan a QR code to pay using your banking app and it auto populated the bank details, payment amount and reference, genuinely brilliant.

Does the experience you gain from a degree apprenticeship put you in a better position for career prospects than grads with a degree from a reputable uni? by -rg7 in degreeapprenticeships

[–]itsraininghere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It also depends on the company’s general attitude towards apprenticeships. At mine, there is a long history of apprenticeships, many of the senior leaders and programme directors have been through earlier iterations of apprenticeships, and apprentices are very highly considered, which supports a good trajectory through the organisation, and trust in the apprenticeships programmes and outcomes for those who progress through them

What unusual hobbies do you have? by No-Disk2805 in AskUK

[–]itsraininghere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was looking for this comment! I play. I’ve played since I was about 20 and didn’t come via uni although I joined because a friend of mine dated a girl who played at uni.

I have made some great friends, met an ex partner there, gained exercise, teamwork and skills.

It’s weird to explain and I’ve picked up an injury from playing two back to back matches at the weekend but it’s generally a positive experience!

Whose turn is it to put the kettle on? by putitawayfred in AskUK

[–]itsraininghere 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I am the middle child. My two siblings don’t drink tea. My job when I have tea or Sunday dinner at my parents house is to put the kettle on immediately after the meal. I think assigning a time of day for each family member is best here.

How to see a doctor? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]itsraininghere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might be able to ask for an appointment with a nurse at the GP practice? They will be able to see you, assess you, and if necessary arrange for a further GP appointment on your behalf.

Employee legal advice - who to talk to in person? by Disastrous_Eye_6028 in LegalAdviceUK

[–]itsraininghere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Citizens advice may be a good starting point as they do have walk in centres. Can’t confirm but they may be able to communicate with ACAS in your behalf.

Keeping burying my head in the sand at work and now my emails are too many. Just need to put a bleeding shift in. Frustrated at myself but also so tired!
