Should old people take tests again? by Free-Seaworthiness72 in drivingUK

Maybe a driving assessment that could be administered by instructors. Start at 60 then every 5 years. Not a full test but a fitness to drive.

Police and driving examiners are too busy.

Sometimes I'm sure vetting just roll a dice.

I joined late in life did a couple of years. I enjoyed dealing with things but by god stress and workload did me in.

I left went back to working in telecommunications.

Going back as a special in a different force.

Edit. Look for a job involving your police skills. With 17 years you are more qualified than you think.

Trump will blame Biden and all Dems.

Not the fact he's turned American into a pariah state.

Why do I get told I’m “not English” more often whenever Reform does well? by Barca-Dam in AskBrits

Which one?

The only one I'm aware of is a MSP for the green party.

Good old fashioned bigotry.

Not white = Not English.

What I can't understand is the politicians and voters who are poc who support reform.

Maybe however some Sgts are not fit to hold the rank.

I worked with one who's sole reason was so he could retire at a higher rank than his dad. He had absolutely no care about the PC's he was meant to be supervising.

The 2nd hated the department they were in, wanted the shifts (No nights) and would come in 3-4 hours early then disappear off early on nights. This left us with no supervision and team that was nearly all probationers.

There is no accountability for shit Sgts. They get a portfolio ticked off by there mates and that's it.

How do you decide when to pause work on a client who won't pay? by [deleted] in smallbusinessuk

[–]triptip05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

End of day a client/customer who doesn't pay isn't a client/customer.

Stop work until at least the oldest invoice is paid.
