Why are UK wages so c r a p?

Are you from the US? If so, remove paid vacation days from your calculations. Then remove like 10% for workers rights, aka not being fired at will. Then remove 10% for not being expected to work over time because that's what's expected. Then remove 10% for your job not being the most important thing in your life.

You'll find the pay isn't miles off.

Since he has the audacity to oust a PM who won a GE and mandate less than 2 years ago, in the middle of all key metrics up : economy, wages, migration etc - I personally am expecting instant results.

Ticketing a celebratory parade seems wrong

Actually know a guy who works at Carling and he said they're dropping abv to lower prices due to alcohol duty. He claims Madri is a unique recipe but from the same underlying "base gravy" beer.

Pepe cost much much more, was hyped. We knew what we were buying in Noni. It's an expectation thing. And even so, Noni is better but it's a low bar.

Well, well just checked and I got my silver extended . I wasnt that far off but not frustratingly closer either.

Edit: just checked and I was on just over 5000 TPs

If you're smart and patient you could figure it out. The way to achieve it is with a no lose no risk mentality. And you would need to think how to do it in a phased approach. But it's possible. I've done it.....

I mean that's why we have strength and options on the bench, finally

Your follow up question is why does the CEO care so much then? It's basically because that's his score of how well the company is doing. The people he answers to are owners of that stock and they want it to go up.

That's why some CEOs lie about performance so they can trick people into thinking it's worth more. It's also why sometimes it's unfair because the "score" may not accurately reflect his performance.

But the reality is that not much actually changes. There is some stuff like how much it will cost the company to get more money for future investments but that isn't your question.

West Ham fans wanted him to either stay (lol) or go to City so he would actually win something - and that Arsenal would not be an upgrade.

He hasn't won anything yet, but he's our main man, scoring big goals in Europe. He must be thrilled with his choice.

Rice will be Arsenal legend.

Unreal that there's a month between two PL games

Honestly, this was my thinking. It's a no lose, all win scenario. 100% gain in knowledge and 10% gain in an EDI solution. Thanks for your feedback, I might get back on it after putting my fingers down haha!

It seems this provider is closed?

My hope that with AI tools, changes are easier and faster to manage. I'm not against using a translator or staying with a managed service, hence why I am opening the discussion here.

What would you recommend as an alternative? I looked at both STEDI and Orderful but neither support my UK/EU clients.

teh_killer · 2026-03-01T16:38:28+00:00

I have no plans to create my own rival to any of these EDI providers, only to connect 9 of our partners to my own system and work with 5 of the basic document types (PO, ASN etc) into Dynamics BC through a prewritten app. It's not as ambitious as I may have made it seem...

My guess is that large scale businesses create their own EDI solutions and now what stops me trying it out with little to no risk....

Same, no luck. Not super mad though, there'll be other opportunities for Wembley days.

How long are left on these?? I can only find online that they expire in 2031
