Must have a cable somewhere as a backup otherwise you’d need a full battery replacement should it ever be discharged.

Lots of family and friends still in the service and doing as good a job as they can but for each good one there is no doubt an asshole.

But I can’t speak for cops in other countries, only experience in Scotland.

It was seeing how awful humans are to each other that really sold it for me, I’d rather live in my bubble, thanks.

Scottish Police Service. Turns out peeling back the curtain of the worse side of people isn’t conducive to good mental health for me so I got outta there.

I have found ChatGPT to be better than Google for random questions I have, asking for general advice in a whole bunch of things but sido what to go for other sources. I also use it to extrapolate data, come up with scheduling for work (I organise some volunteer shifts) and lots of excel formulae.

I freaking love that movie but actually think it has a lot of depth. It shows a cgi cartoon character dealing with inevitability of death, fragility of life and mortality and value of what’s truly important. Side storylines about families, adoption, forgiveness etc but man does that wolf kill it.

Fuck the lot of them. Shop around for the best deal that doesn’t try to screw you over.

I honestly pop in ‘yo butt’ into our shared shopping list and it usually gets an eye roll.

It’s creeping back in the UK here too. I think hybrid works best for me, can collaborate 2 or 3 times a week and stay at home and be more productive to actually DO the work.

35 days hols per year, would be 27 or something but they give us the English bank holidays as part of our allocation (am Scottish but it’s UK company).

It’s basically the gigachad of the factory world.

Yup they reinvested a lot of the oil money back into their country and population whereas we in the UK (Scotland) had it squandered.
