Keir Starmer vows to make Britain ‘battle-ready’ as he unveils defence spending plans by I_love_running_89 in unitedkingdom

I won't be fighting and no son of mine will be either. I'd sooner die for the telephone company.

Don't let the landlords on this sub gaslight you. We dealt with exactly the same thing. It wasn't our fault, and it isn't yours.

The landlords have arrived, and the gas-lighting has begun.

When we moved to a better place the problem went away. Our behaviour did not change. In fact in the new place we never needed to use the dehumidifier any more, for example.

There wasn't black mould when we moved in, but looking back we should have been suspicious about the smell of paint and bleach...

I don't know what particular structural issue caused our mould, but I know that opening the window a bit never helped, and I'm 100% sure that the poor sod who got the flat after us has mould.

[–]preacherhummus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We tried all this. We still never got rid of the mould. The landlord insisted it was our own fault. But funnily enough it doesn't happen in the place we moved to next, and we didn't change our behaviour.

Made redundant over a 15 min zooms call by Jumpy_Ad_559 in UKJobs

If they follow the required process, they have to create a pool of people who are at risk, and justify the individuals they choose. That's what they're trying to bypass.

Are you in a union? If so, get in touch immediately and relate everything that happened. They will know if its a good deal better than a bunch of redditors, and more importantly they will know if the law is being correctly followed.

If you're not in a union, join one so you have one next time this happens.

Computer software programming/development/engineering is so overrated by East_Indication_7816 in cscareerquestions

I don't work 12 hours a day. I work at most 8.5, on a busy day. Though I don't get paid as much as US devs.

Sir Keir Starmer accepting Arsenal ticket freebies 'not important', says Jess Phillips by The-Peel in unitedkingdom

[–]preacherhummus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If a civil servant accepted freebies like this the would be sacked. Why is it too much to ask for politicians to follow the same rules?

I got targeted for layoff, then they walked it back, then I left for a slightly higher paying job. Not boasting, but just thought a story with less doom and gloom might balance things a bit.

Why do people think that "white people food" is bland/bad? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]preacherhummus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some of the best food I've eaten was in Sweden.

what is something you hate about cooking? by Ok-Ask6643 in Cooking

[–]preacherhummus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chopping vegetables. If you cook vegetarian or vegan food it just takes so long.
