Having ended up on a rail workers forum looking for info on something malc raised on another thread I thought there must be a forum for ATC workers, and of course there is. The opinion on there is that Trump is talking absolute shit. The issue with the biographical questionnaire was much less...

Stop trying to 'fix' the symptom and address the actual problem. Rather than threatening to take benefits away in an attempt to force people back to work why not look into what is causing the level of long term sickness and mental health issues Work life balance, for lack of a better term, is...

Get them built!

Last few pages on here have not exactly been a million miles away from Great Replacement Theory

Shambolic to the end. An innings defeat and 16-0 loss. In any sane world serious questions would be getting asked of the management team and a lot of those players would be wondering if they will ever play for England again but apparently you're not allowed to ask questions or suggest the...

Assume the break thing refers to railway staff. Did a bit of digging and guess what? Turns out it's most likely bollocks. The source seems to trace back to The Sun and then got repeated by the likes of the Mail and Express. While looking into it ended up on a forum similar to this for railway...

isn't that the point. we have shit public transport so everyone drives but if anything is done to change the infrastructure to give non-car options people lose their minds about taking away roads from cars. the underlying issue is probably that we've left it far too late to plan and implement...

I once had some bloke losing his mind yelling at me for my dog pissing in the gutter. What the fuck are you expecting me to do about that :ROFLMAO:

Been dipping in and out of this thread as the saga has gone on but do we actually know what happened there for him to suddenly want to leave?

Think there's a lot more to this than we're being told, isn't there always. Might look into it more when I have more time as it's pretty interesting stuff and certainly not as straightforward as Trump is making it seem. Also seen it suggested by the outgoing secretary of transportation that...

Does kind of raise the question why didn't he sort this glaring obvious problem the last time he was president

why are there people waiting outside training grounds at night with signs begging for shirts? Bad enough when its at the actual game.

My office used to be in the air traffic control tower and anyone that thinks getting a job in ATC requires you to be the best of the best is kidding themselves. You need a handful of GCSEs! What you do need though is training and regular testing to make sure you're up to the job. Not sure I buy...

Aussies 172 ahead with 6 wickets left. Wonder if they'll go for an early declaration and get England in tonight under the lights. The way this tour is going you wouldn't bet against a few wickets falling tonight before being skittled out tomorrow. In other news ECB have accepted a bid from the...

Such a good show. Seems to have been a while since the last series, either that or my memory is worse than I thought! Good excuse for a rewatch.

In my current job we've had two people, myself included, taken to hospital from work. Upon release both were back at their desks within hours of being discharged. From my experience of working for SMEs for the last 15+ years I don't think it's particularly the company we're working for, it's...

It's weird because it's the same machine so they have to have actively removed that facility. if they've got staff to empty the ones that do take cash it can't be that much more work to have them all take cash.

Right on schedule, unlike pubic transport, the council have bizzarly announced today that the lines to Warwick Uni, CBS Arena and UHCW (originally the first line to be built) have been scrapped. Well in official terms they're now downgraded to a 'still planned over time' and they're now...

Think CVB might have meant to post in here not the Trump thread so I'll drag it over to respond to Malc. I've worked in the charity sector, education, local government and private sector and in my experience work culture in the private sector is you very much drag yourself in no matter what...

A very quick glance at the figures shows you that since covid came along the number of NHS employees off with covid-like symptoms has skyrocketed. It's a real mystery.
