there's gonna be like 5 asterisks to each part of that policy

BAN ZERO HOURS CONTRACTS*****

*but only for over 25s
*but only for UK citizens
*but not if you've been unemployed for more than 12 months
*but your employer can unilaterally put you onto zero hours any time during your probation
*but supermarkets are exempt

a one-hour contract is significantly better than a zero hour one because at least you can count on a specific number of hours worth of wages on a week to week basis

yes that whole one guaranteed hour of work is really going to pay for a whole load of stuff

efb twice

there will be literally no difference except the number 0 will be crossed out and replaced with a 1

My dad also thinks that if someone walked out in front of his car and he made no attempt at stopping, he'd get off scot free because they were asking for it. I keep telling him a jury probably wouldn't go for that but he seems convinced that his jury would be composed of 12 My Dads

I’m surprised he’s not spending the day doing laps of the M25 in the hope of finding an XR protest to run over

I don't drive, so really don't have much interest in it, but I am a bit interested in green technology stuff, and I've got to say it's pretty bizarre how on SA and left Twitter Teslas are the worst cars ever made and incredibly unsafe and constantly explode, while literally everywhere else I look they're widely considered to be good cars that people like.

they really sent that guy onto TV news and didn't expect that he'd be asked the extremely obvious question about his own home? didn't think to maybe coach him on a response that wasn't panicked deflection?

I got an email through from Bulb 2 days ago saying that my electricity usage in my shop was higher than their assumed usage from my old provider and therefore I owed them £450 and my monthly payments needed to go up by £300. Needless to say, that was absolutely ludicrous and when I checked, they hadn't had a meter reading from the so called smart meters in 3 months since it was installed and somehow came to the insane conclusion that I would have used 4 times the energy I actually had done when you look at my meter.

What the actual gently caress are they playing at with this poo poo? They didn't get a reading from their own equipment so they just make a random guess and charge according to that rather than contacting me and asking for me to check it?

Needless to say, I had to contact the bastards and got my payments reduced back down and my account re-debited back into credit, but I am pretty angry with them

if I was running an energy company that was potentially going out of business in the next month or so I'd probably be trying to squeeze every last penny out of my customers that I could tbh

obviously I'd need to be an absolute bastard but it's not like I'd have got into that position without being one

Random question of the kind that people in this thread often know the answer to. Do rental car places typically have their own petrol supply on site?

I'm meant to pick up a hire car on Friday and will be absolutely stuffed if I get off the train at Newcastle and then get told "soz guv no petrol" (in a Geordie accent)

it should be full when you pick it up, since you're meant to return it with a full tank

if it's not, make sure to take a picture of the gauge before you leave the site, and make sure that one of their people acknowledges it as such, otherwise you'll be on the hook for topping up the tank for the previous customer
