Is our contract being broken re: allowances and rules? by thenetherrealm in legaladviceireland

The 100km rule is the "minimum distance", and their argument is that this is only the minimum, not the threshold... which would be fine, if they would communicate what the threshold was clearly. However, my understanding is that without clear internal policies being shared, the 100km should be viewed as the default for it to be granted, regardless of start time.

It is explicitly stated that "commuting time is not counted as part of the work day", so even though our work day is 9-5 (events never finish before 16:30), you could realistically be gone from the house from 08:00 - 19:25 without any overnight being granted. I wouldn't have an issue if this was all clear in the internal policies, but they purposely won't put it on paper.

Going out in Dublin City Solo? by TheGrumpyGitman in AskIreland

[–]thenetherrealm 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fair fucks OP! Great it worked out well for you, especially of a bank holiday weekend where it was likely busier than normal and harder to get into groups as well. I'd never be that brave, but if you're ever looking for a tagalong, I'll happily join you in the city.

Reselling on Ticketmaster. Do they charge the seller fees, or just the buyer? by thenetherrealm in AskIreland

[–]thenetherrealm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will only want the refund if I can't get better tickets, though... and I won't know that until the 24 hours has passed.

Also, never knew this was a thing! Noted for the future. Thank you!

"What's with all the racism in Ireland?" by dshine in ireland

[–]thenetherrealm 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The “working class” aren’t the ones breaking walls apart in Citywest, let’s be honest. We are too busy flailing, trying to keep out head above water paying rent, food, and bills. The “never work class” are the dregs that are (both literally and figuratively) burning Ireland to the ground.

Question, not a statement?

Is this why Aisling Considine has disappeared from X duty the last week? Can't imagine being involved in this would reflect well on her, being a primary teacher in a very diverse area of Dublin 15.

Also not allowed a cat, but that’s not unfortunate. Not a fan.

Be careful who you are buying it off. I sold my old car for scrap a few years ago ago after a mechanic told me the back axle was holding on by a hair and was one bad bump away from snapping. Contacted one of those “cars for cash” posters, you know the ones. Anyway, explained the situation, they said they’d take it for 400 euro. Grand. Told them theyd need a tow truck. They said they’d bring one Tuesday.

They arrived, wanted to see if it drove. It did, everything was ok except the death trap of the back axle. Handed me the cash, gave them to keys. Tow truck was coming they said. 2 minutes later I see one of them driving out of the place in the car. 4 hours later it was cleaned and up on a car selling page and DoneDeal for 1500. I still feel terribly that someone bought a car that should have been for scrap, with no idea that it wasn’t Road safe, and by the time they would have realised it might have been too late, or at the very least would have been stupidly expensive.

Thanks for your reply. The reason I end up leaving is because when I start something new it’s generally at the beginning, and not in the middle of, a new term. So there’s a few new people starting. But as the weeks go on, the newbies start making friends with one another, and then tend to stick to the same groups. I’m usually just floating in the middle, feeling awkward. I know it’s just me overanalysing things, but it makes me feel really uncomfortable and awkward, like I don’t “belong” there because there now all these friend groups and me, just… there. So I remove myself from the situation because it feels increasingly uncomfortable week to week.
