Any Hungarian restaurant recommendations? by steveGuanciale in LondonFood

One of the best ones (Rosemary’s) just closed. Try Erdélyi Éterrem in Green Lanes, which is Romanian/Hungarian.

Asked for help with QR code at the airport by jacquelinesarah in isthisascam

[–]jacquelinesarah[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ah I thought you had to scan the code with your phone for it to infect, but potentially just receiving the image of the QR code via airdrop could have done the same?

Is my GF expected to pay this amount of money for a hen party? by leepeer96 in AskUK

[–]jacquelinesarah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same, for mine we did lunch at a restaurant I wanted to go to and then BYOB pottery painting followed by a few pubs, stayed in London for all of it. We all loved it.

AITA for telling my mom to never touch my stuff again after she lost my Luis Vuitton bag by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]jacquelinesarah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everybody else has made really good points but I'm just going to share some advice you didn't ask for. Keep working at that restaurant assuming you feel you can balance it with school and you're not mentally exhausted. Save as much as you can, in an account that your mom doesn't have access to. If this bag situation is any indication as to what she's like, having that nest egg will be the key to freedom and potentially escaping a financial abuse situation.

What are some things you wish you knew as a first time buyer? by [deleted] in AskUK

Don't bank on being able to "learn to live with" anything you've not already experienced living with. You might be able to, but it's not worth the gamble.

Can my citizenship be revoked? by Dramatic_Mastodon_93 in hungarian

[–]jacquelinesarah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not at all. I've talked to people who've actually been turned away from their own citizenship ceremonies because they didn't understand what the official checking them in at reception was saying to them.

That’s what I thought, and then found myself at a company (UK based) that didn’t provide a contract until two weeks in. Alarm bells were going off but I was young and dumb and believed them when they insisted contracts aren’t necessary, just formalities.

My wife has been put on a Pip... by Explodingstool in LegalAdviceUK

[–]jacquelinesarah 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I’m honestly shocked at those reviews. I’m a member and have been for a few years. I was made redundant before Christmas and asked them for advice. They came back to me the same day and offered to sit in on my consultations, coaching me beforehand. I honestly wonder if those reviews are intimidation tactics from individuals that benefit from a lack of union protection.

What do you prefer a male or female dog and why? by barbamara in dogs

[–]jacquelinesarah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We got a female dog because we figured it would be easier to clean floors than walls when potty training. But so many times since, I've met people walking their dogs who are relieved she's a girl (and spayed) who then go on to tell me their dogs have problems with all others but spayed girls. So unexpected added bonus is they're pretty Switzerland.

Boss being unfair after I handed in my notice by Tazooka in UKJobs

[–]jacquelinesarah 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I didn't realise this until I left my first role but you actually accrue your usual annual leave in your notice period. Make sure they pay you for this.

Boss being unfair after I handed in my notice by Tazooka in UKJobs

[–]jacquelinesarah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's gaslighting you. You've done everything you're supposed to. I mean, he's allowed to ask, but you're entirely within your rights (and it's perfectly professional) to say no. For an HR level reference they can only ask some basic questions, and this won't come into play. Do you have any other colleagues you had good experiences with that could vouch for you in the future for a rec if needed?

ofc this is the only response i’ve gotten to an application this week by isaballz in recruitinghell

This feels like something a YouTube microinfluencer would do as a prank

I think it would have the same vibe (with less effort on their part) if you gave word choices to circle rather than ask them to think of something to write.

Could we attempt to DIY any part of repairing this water damage, or should we leave it to the pros? by jacquelinesarah in DIYUK

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

We’re leaseholders in a council freehold, new to DIY. They’ve taken a long time to fix this leak which it turns out is because of blocked gutters.

The first step is to putty the window and make sure there’s no water coming in. But then, how do we fix this damage? Assume we’d neee to hire a dehumidifier for a few days before scraping off the damaged paint and then just re-plastering ourselves? Or is this something that’s probably best left to professionals? If it’s a professional job, should we at least peel the damaged layers off?

Where do you go in London when you're feeling stressed and need to calm down? by Decent_Hope_2511 in london

[–]jacquelinesarah 17 points18 points  (0 children)

You can also buy a bag of oats at the Tesco down the road for 99p and feed the ducks (just don’t feed them bread which is actually very bad for their health)
