People need to live within their means. It’s not a human right to go get drunk every weekend. If you can’t afford it, you stay home.

I work on websites and have carried out extensive user testing to get the right non-binary honorific, and it ended up being Mx.
Implemented it on every site I’ve worked on now.
I see you also are a project manager.
As the owner of 3 insured pets, 2 of which need ongoing complicated care, it’s easy to see that vets are overworked and underappreciated.
My local practice was recently taken over by a UK chain and it’s obvious. I asked (before) if supplements were worthwhile, and was told that there was no clinical evidence for them and lifestyle changes were more impactful. After the buy out, I was led to the front where an enormous stand of supplements sat and was urged to consider the very expensive options after a consult that showed the lifestyle choices were having a great impact on quality of life.
It’s a real shame. I got a call later in the evening yesterday with results for my currently unwell cat and I know that vet had been there for 12 hours at that point.
I’ll never grudge the money I spend on them because I’d sell my car before seeing them suffer but I can see how many would become disenfranchised after working in the reality of modern veterinary medicine.
Companies pay when people make mistakes.
Why the fuck would you fire someone when you just paid for a lesson that prevents further mistakes?
My old place was a cold, stone cottage and was a nightmare to keep heated.
The kitchen at one point was measuring 6°C and that was with the heating on in the winter.
We got out of there in December 2019 and I’m so glad we did, because with COVID, Brexit and the war, house prices went bananas, energy bills went through the roof and interest rates have increased massively.
We could never have afforded this place today. I really feel for young folks today, we bought our first home at 33 years old after years of saving and that was in the time of almost no interest - it would be impossible now.
Yes, but it’s difficult to access. You need to want to get the care and actively campaign to be referred.
And that’s the “easy” things like anxiety or garden variety depression.
As soon as it gets complicated it’s a whole other story.
If she never tried to seek it out, then it doesn’t even matter as it appears she didn’t give off any “I murder babies” vibes to the extent that the investigation was delayed beyond a reasonable length of time because she was not suspected of such a thing.
Every paper I write should have Makers Mark as a co-author…
I visited the Smithsonian air and space museum while over from the UK a few years ago.
I had a short space of time available, and all I wanted to see was the SR-71 blackbird and the space shuttle.
That was the day I found out there were two air and space museums.
Still haven’t seen either of them.
This is me too. I’m in my late 30’s, working a full time job in a bank while completing a full time degree, trying to maintain my top-of-my-class-grade while also trying to keep the rest of my life from falling apart, and genuinely thinking - I’m going to do my masters at the top university in my country because fuck it, why not.
Sounds like the one I quit in 2021
Bufty.
Heard it frequently 20 years ago and now it’s dropped off the face of the planet as casual homophobia has become a bit less prevelant.
I’ve worked in a founder led business and this is why I quit.
I’d spend forever working on a project to build a satellite site then suddenly we don’t want that anymore - bin the recipes we want a full main site redbrand.
Bye.
This is what I do when I’m at busy events and the service is degraded.
Just keep cutting off levels until I get to one that works well.
Jokes on you, I have an autoimmune disorder, so getting the cold puts me in bed for a week.
Do I feel so bad I want to just lie down? I’ll call in sick.
Am I at risk of yarfing or shitting my pants? I’ll work from home.
Otherwise, I go to work.
I have a lab. She’s 30kg and the textbook “good girl” - a decent depiction of the breed standard.
I got her because her terperment was semi predicted in line with her breed, but I still have public liability insurance and don’t let her approach kids because she’s still a dog.
