It’s not just about the p-value being more than 95%, the power also needs to be above 80% and we need to have run for at least a business cycle.

A bogus gasman, here to ransack yer hoose.

I just use my teeth and it horrifys anyone I’m with…

Jokes on them though, because I’m the one with an open beer.

You can get as good as that as standard in the UK.

I get 36 days PTO, the legal minimum is 28 days. 25% bonus. Pension contribution, I pay 4%, company pays 8%. Health insurance included, but the NHS will cover most stuff.

This isn’t even a senior level position, it’s bottom level. Seniors get way more.

I get paid 4 weekly so get 13 pays a year.

Even better if you keep schtoom about it and automate your work from home job allowing you to just chill for most of the day.

In Europe over 60,000 people died in 2022 due to heatwaves.

People are blind to these deaths because they’re not being taken out by a single devastating event, but rather a series of small events the people brush off as “they were going to die anyway”.

It’s one of the reasons I’ve not, and will not have children. This is getting exponentially worse and I couldn’t image the horror that our future will face.

My next door neighbour has a dog that just screams and wails all day. It sounds horiffic, but because it’s got food water and shelter and doing it in the day time when his owners are at work it’s ok (says the local authority).

The only benefit to an automatic is being able to eat a burrito while driving.

Still doesn’t outweigh the niceness of driving a manual.

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.

It’s always fun to answer the door to JW when you’re a goth. They’re already in a state of panic before you’ve opened your mouth.

It’s clear you have never met a woman…

Also has a life because WOMEN CAN MULTITASK APPARENTLY.

From someone who once drank an ashtray on a pub bet, I’ve definitely drank some worse coffees.

This is true, they try to hide this type of activity, and if you fight it they’ll take you down too. Source: personal experience.

18°C in the winter, and off completely in the summer.

That makes so much sense.

My pre pandemic job was amazing because of the people I worked with. They were great fun and we would also go out together at the weekend.

After lockdown load sof people moved on to higher paid roles as did I.

My last 2 jobs have been friendless, even the hybrid one because even if you’re in the office, others are out so you’re still not forming relationships.

It would have worked better if it was an “everybody works from home Monday and Friday” but that removes all the flex…

Today in my remote job I have no work friends, but I also got a dog, spend loads of time with my new friends (neighbours who also have dogs), am completing a full time degree while working full time bacuse I have no commute and generally I’m significantly happier.

My house is actually tidy too because my 5 min breaks are tidy up breaks rather than piss about distracting someone else breaks.

I thought 500 quid seemed a bit light to be mending generational wealth accumulation.

This seems much more in line with what I would expect.

Note, I’m a statistician, but don’t do maths outside of 9-5 /s

This happened in my old place - also on the business side. Asked for python, got it, then had it immediately removed because of security risks.

I told the head that I could still access tables and shit via excel if I wanted so what does it matter? He didn’t realise this, and asked that I told no-one else it could be done. FFS.

Companies pay when people make mistakes.

Why the fuck would you fire someone when you just paid for a lesson that prevents further mistakes?
