Re: Work

Good luck dude!!

I'm getting ¾ of job interest coming from contract at the minute with most of those being inside IR35. I'm swaying away from them currently but they are appealing for sure given the increase salary.

**** right off with Trek now. The store manager has changed his tune and now won't be supplying me with a fork. But they have found my aftermarket shock. I will not be returning custom.

Re: What do you want to vent about today?

Trek, as you wrote, are REALLY good about replacing frames....upgrading the parts is usually on you. I get the vibe that the shop is foisting new parts on you so that they get something out of the deal other than a bike-build, which they'd probably have to haggle with Trek over. But the bike is goi...

Re: What do you want to vent about today?

My mountain bike frame developed a crack on the inside of the frame in one of the welds. The manufacture (Trek) were really good about taking the bike in and replacing the frame under warranty. - Here starts the not so good stuff. My bike was a 2021 model, a generation 5 frame. The replacement frame...

Re: Work

Apparently he did, although he then asked me to talk me through my CV without it infront of me.. so I'm not sure.

Shame really, such a big company like Dyson and poor happenings like that.

Re: Work

Yes mate.. I haven't updated because I was very frustrated. The posting was for 'Senior Process Engineer - Automation'. When I spoke to my friend who sits 3 desks from the manager interviewing for the role he thought I was a perfect match. Halfway through the interview I saw it dawn on the guys face...

Re: Insurance

Yup.. home insurance rocketed for us too.

What really takes the piss is that my Dad pays less for all his insurances despite everything being much higher value... £90k car, £350k house, etc, etc. Even his energy bills are less. When you have money, everything is cheaper.

I recently joined the company Charity Committee group and last night we put on the quiz night. It went really well and I had organised for 2x DBS checked people to sit in with kids and a couple of movies in a side room while parents could unwind and laugh with similar age humans. All in all it was a...
