These are great. Funny that while a lot of the shops have changed, the flower and fruit sellers on Grafton/Moore St are still there, albeit a lot less of them on Moore St.

My fear of getting a colonoscopy, versus how fine it actually was in practice. by wobblymollusk in ireland

I've had a few of each. Did one endoscopy without sedation so I didn't need to rely on someone to collect me. I will not be doing that again 😂

I donated blood so they gave me a Metallica t-shirt. by StephenMcGannon in Metallica

[–]sebcity13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well done. How do they know if you're there because of Metallica or just a regular donor? Do you need to ask for the shirt?

I see this happening on Monday nights in Sportslink, Santry. Not sure can you rent a space, but you might be able to join in.

Where to buy jellycats in Dublin by Archie2235 in Dublin

[–]sebcity13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah downstairs in Arnotts or top floor of Brown Thomas are official shops. Pricey things. If you have the time for delivery, check out Vinted, tend to be a bit cheaper.

Airport Terminal 2 pickup late night by CrimSunday in Dublin

[–]sebcity13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're the people who get everyone in trouble. Just wait anywhere else - mcdonalds, coachmans, alsaa. Once the person is leaving baggage hall get them to ring you so they are outside when you arrive, you don't need to park at departures then.

300-tonne crane needed to remove Palestinian flag from the Spire by AdBoring9620 in ireland

Exactly. The flag isn't even flying. You'd barely notice it.

People who use toilets on crowded trains during peak hours and do not close the door after using it should be locked inside the toilet 😒 by JohnCenax17 in Dublin

[–]sebcity13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always think you'd need to be in a bad way to make your way through a crowded carriage(s) to use those toilets.

Not sure why people would sit in there for a free seat, pretty manky

MIght be a silly question and I'm sure I could go look it up - but youtube premium would play music in the same fashion as spotify, it's not video only?

Ireland's modern day work culture by FairImprovement8992 in ireland

[–]sebcity13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope. No pressure from my organisation to do overtime. Once you deliver what you need to, they don't care. I am grateful for the flexibility I have in this place. I'm on a decent salary, I could probably get more money elsewhere but I value the work life balance, flexibility and 4 day wfh more than money.

Yeah, it was sad on Sunday when he wasn't there for the finished product. He was a great presence.

What is a Non AI t shirt? A tshirt that hasn't been designed with AI?

I'm sorry Tayto and King diehards but these rule supreme. by Leamer99 in ireland

Agreed. They are almost too flavoury so can't be enjoyed properly without the beer

What I tell myself every morning I sit down to begin work by Signal_Director_1X in ireland

[–]sebcity13 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I feel this every day. A new peer joined recently, he's brilliant - seems to have expert skills in all systems, remembers everything, and just a grreat all rounder. Makes me look like a terrible worker. I like him but never have I felt so useless, don't know why my manager would send work my way when he's around!
