This strategy worked for me. Did it twice in the past 18 months, and clearly things weren't working. Got 20% going into the first, 10% out of there and into the second, and 25% out of there and into somewhere decent. Throw in the raise I received in the job I had before that, and in two years my pay has gone up 65%.

>>13331
That'll learn you for trying to help people.

>>13331
As someone who worked in the NHS in a very much not frontline area, pay is a perennial problem. Management would wonder why the we were always suffering the same old problems that were getting us constantly slated. The thought that pay points were pathetic compared to the market and therefore the only people suitably qualified that were applying were internal candidates. Anyone that was actually competent was leaving.

>>13330>>13332
Yeah, in our line of work you can easily change jobs every few years without it hurting your CV at all - improving it even. The problem comes as you get older, have families, and don't feel like jumping on the recruitment merry-go-round every two years.

>>13329
Thanks. Between 2010 and 2015 my pay only went up from £15,000 to £20,000 but since then it has more than doubled. It's amazing what difference a bit of experience and self belief can do.

No-one who's had proper sex with a woman puts that much effort into typing a dirty fantasy on a pokey little imageboard.

Now ask me about my theory of why Ed Sheeran is obviously a virgin...the logic on that one is even more sound!

>>64003

The fact you read that as a fantasy rather than psychological trauma is a bit telling.

And Eds a virgin because he's fucking minging

>>64004

No, he's a virgin because he did an entire song about losing his virginity. Everyone knows that only lads who haven't actually had sex go on about how they're definitely not virgins, like Jay off the Inbetweeners.

i'm a pedo but i'd would definitely consider having sex with her

Last vorderman of the year, lads.

>>431880

Exactly my point.

I've been considering renting the available space next to us just so I put some wallpaper up and get a sofa or something.

Just missed a call from work. They're either going to be asking me to come in to cover someone, or if I want to take tomorrow's shift off as holiday, as I have fuckloads of accrued and I can't get paid all of it that I don't take.

I'm scared to call back in case it's the former. I won't go in but I'll feel bad for turning down double time pay.

>>431943

They won't ask you if you want to take holiday mate.

>>431950

They will, and they did. Off tomorrow now.

>>431950
There was a fella at my old workplace who hadn't taken a single day of holiday off in 2-3 years, so they pretty much forced him to have a couple of weeks off around the end of the year.

He was chief cashier at the Bank for ages (his signature is still on a lot of bank notes), and then Deputy. I think that more than qualifies him to be governor.

The FCA didn't do a fantastic job over RBS, but then their hands are slightly tied by the fact its a zombie bank. I disagree with the Woodford criticism.

There aren't many better people out there - Mark Carney has been a genuinely great governor and is well respected in the City - Bailey will probably keep a lower profile, but again, no bad thing in a central banker.

A much better, more interesting question might be - how do I get a job at the Bank of England when they don't pay anything near the market rate.

>>88719
>The FCA didn't do a fantastic job over RBS, but then their hands are slightly tied by the fact its a zombie bank.

Nicky Morgan had to threaten him with contempt over his refusal to publish their report on RBS unredacted.

The FCA were also asleep at the wheel over final salary transfers, which led to the mess over British Steel, and ignored warnings about mini bonds which included specific ones over the now collapsed London Capital & Finance.

>>64486
TO SEND HIM FLOWERS?

>>64481
He has made a career of debunking faith healers and mediums as charlatans. I find that improbable. If he is, it's almost certainly part of some act.

>>64488
He often prefaces his shows by saying precisely the opposite - that he has no supernatural powers and it's all misdirection and what not. Also not buying it.

he is a homosexual

>>64491

He might be misdirecting his feelings.

How very dare you, it's disrespectful to post this without a Smokester in it.

david used to live close to me he was a legendary pisshead god bless him

>>4614
Why, because in one timeline you were able to discover a way to live forever? Death is always certain.

>>4615

Not him but yeah, that's how infinity works. There's a universe where you'll still be alive in 60000 years.

>>4614
I don't get this "decision" thing -why do we as humans think we are so important that the creation of infinite universes hinges on the decisions that we make?

>>4617
Based on half remembered popular science I read when I was 13, I think it's more that any time an outcome is undetermined, when the result is observed, all outcomes happen in different universes, and this includes our thought processes and decision making.

>>4616

That's not how infinity works. There are infinite numbers between the integrals 3 and 4, but none of them are 5.

With infinite probability you're assuming that you can reduce the problem to something akin to "if you play the lottery infinite times, you'll win the lottery infinite times". However, without a guaranteed source of entropy we can't assume that infinite universes would be in any way different to our own.

I'm sure people will stop calling Tory voters cunts when they stop being cunts.

>>87950

>that calling anyone who votes Conservative a rude name is a good idea.

Self-perceived moral superiority. And how dare you doubt my view point.

>>87949

The ones I always remember getting right up my fucking nose are the ones that contradict with what is by definition 'rationalism'.

I remember for a long time them being full on 'fat shaming by doctors is real, healthy at every size, intesectionalists unite' thankfully that situation has at least improved.

Mind you wikipedia can't even state the correct date for when the first bomberman game was released without someone editing it back to the wrong one so I'm not sure what standard you can realistically expect from a site that contains debatable topics and anyone can edit.

>>88504
Wikipedia's problem is that most people who know better would prefer to disparage Wikipedia rather than spending that same effort engaging in the editing process (which by the way needn't start and definitely doesn't end with pressing the edit button).

And there's no way Wikipedia doesn't state the correct date since there are a bunch of different dates given depending on where you look with different reasoning behind them. You're unhappy that one info box doesn't contain your preferred date.

>>88511

The edit war is based on the fact that hudsonsoft US nintendo team released a statement say 30 years of bomberman in 2015. This issue is that is the date that bomber man came out in the US, on the NES. The game was actually released 2 years earlier on the MSX (and inbetween multiple other systems) everywhere but in the US (although rebranded as Eric and the floaters in Europe because glorifying terrorism was considered a moral concern). There are paragraphs of people arguing quite logically and rightly that 1983 is clearly the date on the edit page, as they bloody owned the game before 85. But then US yards change it back to 85 because that's what the statement they've over generalised says that none of them have ever justified.

What makes this weirder is that the first game of the series is rightfully labelled on its page the 1983 game because you can't argue it first came out on a port when it is a clearly and objectively defined in a way the franchise wasn't at that point.

Sorry, what? Are you trolling? It's not even in IMDB's top 250.

As we all know, the I in IMDB stands for "infallible."
Let him enjoy his shooty shooty cyborg film.

>>22990
I agree with them. It's a fucking fantastic film. Keen satire dressed up as a "shooty shooty cyborg film".

>>22993
I'm by no means arguing that it isn't a fantastic film. Just that it isn't one of the best ever made.

it's ok now, i downloaded them from another place

I wrote this in python. It works but it's a slow as fuck.

Adjust the 3 constants at the top accordingly.

It's a bit similar to Monopoly, but with a tile aspect that means rather than buying property you get property by chance (collect 3 tiles of the same animal from the dispenser) based on Chinese zodiac it's relatively fun until late game when all the tiles are gone and one fucker, Me, has every tile someone else needs, and needs to be overtaken, or baited into a deal to sell them.

Fuck this game. Seriously.

How about some suggestions for travel-friendly 2-player games?

Handie under a blanket.

>>23180
Travel friendly as in can be played on the go or as in packs down into a tiny box for easy transport?

If the show was called "4 Rooms with Sarah Beeny and Her Sizable Norks" you might have a case, but as it stands, no.

>>64375
The sizeable norkss goes without saying, it's like having to mention Crufts features dogs. When you've got Beeny, you expect booby!
