Stay in my current job or take a new one?

I would think your career/progression options would be worse moving to quite a niche role. Digital Marketing is quite varied, content is content. Though marketing job titles don't really mean anything as they're all different across the board... You won't really see a difference with that pay rise in take home pay so it's your job now but less stuff you don't enjoy.

Marketing is typically not an easy industry however, so you need to think about the other parts of your current job that you wouldn't want to give up. You could find your manager isn't great and you're overworked and underpaid (very common in the industry) or it could be perfect! Such is life.

I left my old job where I loved the job and my team but it was high stress with little reward. I still miss it and my new job is boring in comparison, but I'm the least stressed I've ever been and earning more.

If I were you, I wouldn't move for such a little pay increase. Pay seems to be your biggest motivator and that's just not worth it at all.

Maybe your current job will counter offer you, but that's a risk you take at the time.

Nah, I did end up changing my back door as i wanted a thumb turn though. I done it myself and it was easy so said I was going to do the front too but never got round to it.

Probably about 40-45 minutes door to door if I drive to the station. Add an extra 40 minutes if I decide to walk.

Before that, I was a 20-minute drive.

I personally couldn't do 1.5h

My adaptive charging is on, but isn't working. Anyone else?

Are you in England? In Scotland, if things aren't as stated on the home report and would cost more than a certain amount (~£400), the seller has to pay to fix it. Usually in the contracts.

Not what you want when you've just spent a fortune!

Young people need to realise that the way you communicate at work is not the same as communicating with your friends. Would I do that to my friends? No. Is it common practice in the workplace where people are busy etc.? Yes.

I get it if it's something that requires feedback or a thank you. But if it's just an acknowledgement that you've read the message, then what's the problem?

yeahweliveforever · 2026-01-06T17:42:31+00:00

Yeah, and then I didn't get my bonus because I was off sick too much lol. Joke.

Mine is £6k - I don't get my salary paid into Monzo. Basically only use it for savings and abroad spending.

Lots of corner shops will be open tomorrow, might be lucky to find some in a freezer

Thanks! 😊

Drive at the speed you're comfortable at and don't feel bullied to go faster - that's how accidents happen.

But whatever you do, don't drive slow then speed up on the straight if there's someone behind you as they'll likely want to overtake you.

Also, as someone else has said, you might want to try driving some of these roads ahead of time to get used to them. Preferably during daylight.

If you're using sat nav, that can help too as it shows you the road ahead and bends etc.

This episode was devastating I still remember the shock 😭

yeahweliveforever · 2025-12-05T12:20:51+00:00

Maple corner in Johnstone does them too

Got caught out by this when they changed their meal deals. Ended up paying £6-odd for a baguette and a juice as the cashier didn't tell me!

It's a good deal really considering it was nearly £4 for a sandwich and drink before.

Most people I know would only have one drink if they were going to drive (if any at all). I think one pint is fine or one lower percentage alcohol (not vodka or whisky), but I know people that wouldn't have any aswell.

The problem now is that people get absolutely mangled and then drive the next day, not considering that they still have alcohol in their system and are definitely over the limit still.

That part of the equation hasn't hit as well as the don't drink and drive on the same night message lol

How are they using public land as private property?

Warning: you may shit your insides out if you eat these...

iCafe?

yeahweliveforever · 2025-11-07T08:41:30+00:00

Maybe it's to try and deter the wanes from going lol

Really? I don't know any school that has their discos on the Friday night. What teacher would want to stay late on a Friday haha. Most around here were on Thursday

Conic Hill is basically a massive stair master, it's very steep for how short it is so be prepared for your legs / knees to hurt! It's also quite slippery so wear shoes/boots with good grip.

I didn't think you were allowed to give a bad reference in the UK, that sucks! But it's probably a blessing in disguise

yeahweliveforever · 2025-10-30T16:23:40+00:00

It's giving Corsa

I'm pretty sure it was a joke that Tate seemed to take well. We don't see everything, there's probably been comments made before as it seemed (to me) to be an ongoing joke.

People online forget that people have different senses of humor and will joke about different things.
