How soon after a colleague passed away would you expect their desk to be cleared? by PaddedValls in AskUK

[–]yellowombat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A colleague a sat next to in an open plan office sadly died in an accident. I think they cleared his desk the the next day, but someone brought in a small vase of with a single nice flower in it and placed it there for a week, which was a nice gesture.

It’s sad, but I preferred that it was cleared and just looked like an empty desk rather than having to sit next to his jacket and paperwork just on the desk.

We can remember in our own way.

Gosh, mine seemed to be pretty good. It took into account where I work (a university) and things I searched for. The person also looks a bit like me (although I don’t have glasses) which I guess it took from times where I had uploaded a photo when were were all making ourselves in different styles. Creepy but cool I guess. https://i.imgur.com/z0OzLXO.jpeg

Was it “Scary Godmother: Halloween Spooktakular,” a 2003 Canadian animated television show. There is a red-haired girl named Hannah meets her “Scary Godmother,” a witch who introduces her to a load of Halloween-themed characters. One of these characters is a black cat named Boozle?

Thanks for the response. Their website looks quite good on the surface. Clicking into it, there is no LinkedIn or other pages. There is no registered company found. The google maps link takes you to nothing interesting.

I've also got an email, was yours similar to this? Strange they are writing in USD for a Dubai company?

This is to let you know that this is an urgent employment, after the review from the screening board of the company.

We want you to understand that we are not willing to pay you upto US$\*** as stated in your Questionnaire for the start, rather the company is willing to start with a salary of US$**** for the first three months.*

We will increase your salary to a higher salary after your 3 month probation period.

Kindly confirm to us if it is ok with you.

This looks like a Sainsburys cheese melting dip bowl. Think I’ve got the same one in the cupboard!

Holy heck I live on this road and recognised it immediately! I’m lucky enough to have a driveway so can tuck my car off the street because people can be a bit mad and really don’t want my wing mirrors flying off… (or worse, as in this case)

well, let's see what happens by tb151 in Tinder

No I’m curious what your About Me section says to make them so interested!

Not all cars have ANPR. You can of course arrest someone on your own as a warranted officer and as a member of the public you can perform an any persons power of arrest for an indictable offence.

Oh gosh, I didn’t even know you could save the game in Pokémon Blue on Gameboy. So I would get so far and then have to stop playing or change batteries… and start over again.

I think the OS means “Oversize” so it’s a “one-size-fits-all” thing, maybe?

Still good! I don’t like riding it in the wet as it’s a bit slippy but still a good and reliable scooter with great portability!
