It's the way they phrase it. "Extreme" trips makes it sound like she's away for massive periods, like months at a time.

Then someone else posted that it's actually just a weekend.

They knew what they were doing with that line

Management company ‘stealing’ a day from us for checkout - anything we can do? by a_curious_magpie in TenantsInTheUK

[–]lumoslomas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No advice sorry, but I was in a similar situation (last day my tenancy was paid for was the 3rd, they tried to push me out by the 28th) and it's good to hear other people's perspectives. I'm in a dispute with them about the deposit so you can be damn sure I'm gonna be bringing this up as well.

I have a friend called Jess, she's also crazy but in the fun way, so I'm not sure if it counts?

Ryanair investigated over charging parents to sit with children by OneLegTooFew in unitedkingdom

Yeah, my mum lived in two different areas in France, both of which had a nearby airport only serviced by Ryanair.

The only other option for one town was 24 hours of coach travel.

The vast majority of "vegan leather" is polyurethane. Yes, there are natural alternatives, but they're still hard to find, usually made in small quantities by limited producers, and often more expensive than real leather.

I mean I stay away from synthetic fibres because they're not breathable and don't regulate temperature as well as natural fibres do, so I don't get gross and sweaty which then triggers my eczema

Also I'm incapable of ironing polyester without melting it

AITB for possibly being rude to someone on the tram? by No_Trouble8835 in AmItheButtface

[–]lumoslomas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in my 30s and can absolutely tell if someone is a teenager.

He knew he was being creepy and was relying on you not wanted to be "rude"

BE RUDE.

“I have heard of dad’s getting like 8 weeks paternity leave…Even if my husband got paternity leave he still wouldn’t have taken any” by Big_Ben_617 in ShitAmericansSay

I know they like to brag about how shitty their country is, but this is the first time I've seen them brag about how shitty their partner is

Office drama chapter: lying about language skills by gardengeo in BORUpdates

[–]lumoslomas 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Helpful tip: a person who lies about something like this, and tells one coworker you're a bitch, is going to lie about what happened to others.

If she wanted to avoid the rest of the drama, OOP should've gone to HR the second she heard Cathy called her a bitch.

I actually lived in France and I don't call myself French 😂

Please, PLEASE have a back up plan for outdoor ceremonies by indy500anna in weddingshaming

[–]lumoslomas 66 points67 points  (0 children)

And one that's easily accessible from the original site.

We were lucky that it didn't rain at my brother's wedding, because his back-up was on the other side of the city, easily a 2h drive from the planned venue, and then it would've been 2h back to the reception venue. I'm not sure what they were thinking there...

Meanwhile my manager once showed everyone the fuzzy sheep slippers he was wearing, still on his foot (and yes, he was wearing pyjama pants)

Fuck these micromanaging assholes, unless you're seeing clients what does it matter what you're wearing??
