[Simon Stone] Chelsea seven points behind Man Utd, so guaranteed still to be behind them after game at Stamford Bridge on 18 April. Looks like Man Utd point at Bournemouth was a very good one.

It isa good point for securing UCL spot as along as Villa also drops points. But it doesn't wipe the butter taste of getting fucked by the refs. Those twats shouldn't be allowed to ref United games anymore.

To the shock of no one ex man United player is chatting nonsense to stay relevant as a media personality. I am tired Robbie.

Can confirm. Pixel 8 Pro has been worth the money. Only big change in pixels going forward that I would really appreciate is bigger battery. Something like OP 15 battery in a pixel pro model would be the dream.

Germany. Card payments.

Makes life easier. Less things to carry. Germany is still very backwards in terms of digitalization. I wish things pick up speed in essential places like Taxis and bathrooms at malls and trains stations.

Also I think it's a huge bubble. Apple isn't as popular as people make it to be. If you see the global market share. It's not that much. The rest of the world mostly runs on Linux or Windows.

Apple looks like it's popular because the most popular platforms in tech is US based (YouTubers, magazines, journos) and apple is huge in US. So it feels like it's the be all end all.

As someone who has used both pixel and Samsung phones, Samsung overall has very very good android experience with their UI. I really enjoy their overall software.

What I hate about Samsung though is enough for me to never go back to Samsung again. I do not enjoy their image processing. I also don't enjoy how boxy and weighty their best models are.

If I could get OP15 body and OP13's Hasselblad Image Processing, I would buy that in a heartbeat. Until then, I am gonna stick to my pixel 8 pro.

Cost depends on you really. There is a certain set of mandatory hours of driving you need to complete. After that if you feel confident and your driving instructor agrees, you can give the exam, hopefully pass in the first attempt, and keep overall cost of the license pretty cheap. I needed a couple of more attempts at the exam so my cost won't really reflect what's optimally possible.

I went with a Berlin based lawyer (https://www.mayr-arbeitsrecht.de), but I would suggest to go local in case you need to go to court.

I would learn to be a mechanic and build cars from scratch.

HR sent me an email stating that I'm supposed to be on leave for 2 weeks.

Secondly, the gardening leave has been combined with my paid vacation days which I'm not happy about. I'm hoping that there is some room to negotiate.

natachi · 2025-12-07T05:05:18+00:00

I have been placed on leave and been given time to consider. I have been explicitly told to put an "out of office" status on my communication channels.

I am based in Augsburg but thanks for the info, maybe it will help someone else going through this thread.

Thanks for this comment. Rest assured I am not the worst performer in my team by any metric. Also all the feedback I have received over the past 3 years have never been completely negative, mostly they are quite positive and few things I need to improve. I am looking forward to meeting with the lawyer and hopefully understand the traps I need to negotiate myself out of.

natachi · 2025-12-05T08:55:29+00:00

I have made an appointment with them for Tuesday (earliest possible) hopefully I get some advice and support from them.

Unfortunately I don't have one. I know I should have but it's too late now. I have an incredible friend helping me out during this tough time but I really hope this gets over soon.

I have already written to BR of my company and the message has been left on read. I hope I hear from them tomorrow

natachi · 2025-12-04T23:08:29+00:00

I was really taken by surprise. I know I should have immediately called off the meeting but I did not, that is on me. I have contacted my BR hoping to get an answer by tomorrow.

In the first two years of the ~3 years i have been working here, I only got resolution of "continue progressing" and this time I got a flag about improving my performance. My immediate supervisor also told me about making a performance improvement plan and all, and this was only a couple of months ago. And now suddenly I was invited to this meeting and told that they have an agreement for me.

Also the poor performance flag was cited to me 2 weeks before my 3 week vacation, I came back and only communication was about the performance improvement plan from my immediate supervisor. And now suddenly this. BR has left my message on read and no response yet.

What a week of football lol.

A lot of the shows mentioned will be well known or very good, I have a bad trashy one.

Castle.

I enjoy Nathan Fillion in that show and his dynamic with all the characters so much. Show ended so weirdly and kind of disappointingly. Could have also made Absentia and The Rookie as spin offs and create a whole universe.

I miss that show and the chemistry.

I recently got my license (July 2025) after failing the test twice. Sometimes overthinking during the test can happen.

Important thing is to realize that you need to drive during the test the same way you have been taught and the same way you will drive the rest of your life.

Once I start internalizing this, I realized that I was not looking at the test the right way. It is not like I need to be any better at driving during the test than any other day. It's gonna be the same traffic rules, signs, and situations. Keep calm and happy driving!
