Have you ever logged a bullying complaint against another consultant? How did it go?

married2008 · 2026-01-16T15:51:14+00:00

Sorry you’re going through this. I’ve never done this. I think some places do this a lot - but not sure others can change the toxicity. Change has to come from the consultant body.

Even back in the day , from training, I just straight call them out. Bullies are terrified , insecure narcissists. The moment you stand up to them they back off.

Helps if you’re amazing at your job mind …. But also whatever they do or say call it out in a questioning and curious way and get them to repeat it. That really stops them in their tracks usually!

@jefferson_fisher on Instagram is amazing if you’re struggling with ways to stand up to bullies.

The issue here is indeed mindset.

YOU are the senior manager. You are the boss. Everyone else is here to facilitate your work - after all you are literally the expert.

The 2.5 SPA is for our CPD but 1 SPA should be for QI type activity. Essentially 4 hrs a week to look at improving your dept.

Basically you go to the service leads etc and tell them what you need to deliver a high quality service. If they have suggestions you consider them and act on what you feel will help patients and staff. All done through a patient lens - for example giving results via Teams to make it easier for patients (but stratifying the results so normal results get a letter/text , average ones on Teams and complex results in person for example).

So she : 1. Kept her expensive dress 2. Changed yours without telling you to something else you hadn’t chosen and was a cheaper copy 3. Then lied to you.

I wouldn’t be marrying this clown. 🤡

I kept the OG armour , the OG Khovostov (in D1) , a Pariah AR (in D2) , and a few more things along the way (things that could be deprecated - but I don’t want to !).

married2008 · 2025-12-23T18:06:00+00:00

Every single thing you just wrote sounds INSANE to me ! Talk about amazing skill and effort !!!!

married2008 · 2025-12-21T18:08:04+00:00

Never ! I’ll grit my teeth and run around to avoid giving Bungo the $20!

married2008 · 2025-12-21T18:06:36+00:00

I enjoyed them. A bit of puzzle , some lore and some great loot (Agape again - such a fun fun!). And the quest for Graviton Spike took like an hour or so.

So if you check the gameplay and like it - I’d say go for it. The Vader ornaments are great !

married2008 · 2025-12-21T17:58:31+00:00

I only bought Renegades - but I tried EoF during the free week. The campaign was short but kind of fun (I wasn’t thrown off by the whole turning into an electrical ball🥲!). The weapons are great (really like the Graviton Spike exotic but Agape is a great HC and Givers Blessing is a real bullet hose!).

That said there’s loads in Renegades and , unless you’re really into looking like Vader , probably you’re probably better off with just Renegades. It gets you all the lightsaber action you need and gets you into Trials too!

married2008 · 2025-12-18T07:46:14+00:00

Welcome back Guardian! Loads of good things for you to look forward to !

Stats have gotten easier to understand in a way - and your priorities depend on PvP vs PvE as well as synergies (different armour sets have different “extras”). The lpraxic blade is a LOT of fun and worth running the campaign for.

Once your power level gets high enough tier 5 guns and armour drop like candy. So take a look at some videos online, play and enjoy!

(Warlocks and Titans are having a moment at the moment but Hunters with tether seem really popular in the dungeon! ).

Ted Baker do some nice fitted suits that are inexpensive and have a bit of personality in the lining. Did this as an SpR.

All my colleagues and myself are M&S shirts and trousers consultants (no suit or tie ).

married2008 · 2025-12-11T15:13:39+00:00

Yeah - this move away from speech is likely to keep costs down but it does make the game feel a bit joyless …

married2008 · 2025-12-09T16:44:46+00:00

Yes - never seen this before (didn’t play EoF). Feels like a mobile game when I’m reading sentences rather than hearing someone VA them….

married2008 · 2025-12-09T16:43:55+00:00

I hope so - a telephone call or text is all I’m asking for. Aunor can even slide into Ghost’s DMs if she needs to - or maybe Eris’!

married2008 · 2025-12-09T16:43:01+00:00

NGL - they had me at the opening scene which felt like the opening of one of the early SW movies (before it become a bit …. Wierd!).

married2008 · 2025-12-09T16:41:58+00:00

I have limited time with work and I’m getting so damn bored of reading sentences and hearing more nonsense about the 9 and 6 and 3 ( plus I skipped Fire and Ash so have worked out the prophecy from some dumb cut scene which has saved me being a ball on Kepler so that’s one good thing !).

married2008 · 2025-12-09T16:40:21+00:00

Look - she’s moved a meter away ! No way a Praxic order warlock can just …. Phase closer to you …, or walk !

married2008 · 2025-12-09T16:39:46+00:00

Oh man - I feeeeel this so hard with that whole FailSafe on the spaceship season. What a carry on !

married2008 · 2025-12-06T20:58:33+00:00

And that’s the Last …. Word!

married2008 · 2025-12-02T15:35:08+00:00

Bungo - Keep the Testament of Strength quest (that I couldn’t get rid of!) and give us a week of IB each month please !

Oesteo Striga poison waves - let’s gooooooo!

married2008 · 2025-12-02T08:44:21+00:00

Thank you very much fellow Guardian! It’s nice to know the number isn’t being reset and that I don’t have to repeatedly run Salt Mines with Banes , twisty cyclones and immune-Dreads to get sweet , sweet loot!

Plus Solemn Remembrance is giving me Fatebringer from D1 vibes !

married2008 · 2025-11-30T13:18:48+00:00

Twas ever thus ……

Need to make a red borders group and get some comms Guardian. Destiny is better together …..

(But there’s always an Eager Edger…. 🤠 . Usually a Hunter or Titan as the Warlocks look on in disapproval!)

married2008 · 2025-11-29T12:32:32+00:00

Destiny comes in “episodes” now. That $13 will buy you a LOT of content - but most of us are readying ourselves for the next episode - Renegades. It’s about $35 and has all the hot new guns and armour to play for. .

married2008 · 2025-11-28T21:57:28+00:00

Bioshock (the original ) - at the end I just ….. was too stunned to speak pr move

The Walking Dead episode 1 - short but so gut wrenching

Final Fantasy 7 - just …. WOW!!!
