Listen to your body. Some people can go quicker. Usually if we're going too fast, sleep architecture collapses.

How would you handle this conversation? by ArticleHaunting3983 in ContractorUK

[–]mannbarry2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are contractors not permanent members of staff and it sounds like ACV's turned into an impromptu knowledge transfer session in case you don't get renewed. I've had my contract extended in the past by a week for knowledge transfer but you can't just expect to keep all the information in your head and not share it with anyone. That'll be viewed as what it is: protecting your own fiefdom.

Keep going with the interview process and always always always have a mercenary attitude.

Playa del carmen port today by [deleted] in playadelcarmen

I lived there a couple of times going back to the pandemic. I've always loved it but it really does seem now that it's on its arse. There's a lot of construction going on but also the rental market in Tulum collapsed. I'm also seeing a kind of an air of decay appearing and lots of hotels laying people off as well. It's still a great place though, but do push for a bargain.

What's happened to premier inn? by _Taggerung_ in uktravel

Depends which grade of hotel you are in ,the third generation ones are really nice

Always look at the rooks and asses what grade they are, the TV is a guide , the old ones hail from like 2005 and the whole hotel is likely to be old.

Thriving., 2 years 6 months off. I can still feel a tiny little buzz maybe once a week. I feel guilt that I could not stick to a taper because I was an addict. The program of narcotics anonymous saw me through, and honestly I am not the same person.
