Anecdote: I would have paid the Google tax. I actually tried to just out of convenience. But one small bit of nonsense stopped me. Google required me to send them my passport and photo ID for the priveldge of paying them for additional stor

The company I worked at was great for 3 years. 2021 was a year where we were left - almost criminally - understaffed and the remainder employees picked up a huge amount of bits of others peoples roles. Rehiring was slow, despite available r

Interesting, thanks. That's still a step forward from where I thought we were. We'll get there.

Sounds like you know the area. I've been dreaming about the day we can have solar on the roof, charging and storing that energy in the car, and releasing that energy to the home via V2H when needed. I looked into this about 6 months ag

Same with WFH during the pandemic. My sleep quality was incredible and quality of life was through the roof. My @sshole boss plucked us all back into the office just before Xmas and I'm back where I started. Note: if you're a boss

Doesn't sound like a terrible situation as a one-off considering you seem fairly happy there. Trust me. Learn and move on. Communicate your concerns to your direct manager. If similar things continue to happen, fire them. Simple.

If you've ever watched the movie Armageddon, you'll know this is par for the course.

Same. For the unfamiliar, I can understand ... but as a fan, I can't believe this fact is even in question.

BS. Billions of pounds are pumped into light and dark methods of taking our attention. Or do you think those billions are for charity?

This is good, but shouldn't the priority maximising power output from X area of solar panel? I would have thought the industry needs customers to get excited about covering their electricity bills (especially now), let alone just getti

Do you think that's the majority of any significant group out there? Get f@cking real.

I'd imagine that's an easy "swapsie" with someone equally skilled considering the demand for remote jobs. I think you'd be overwelmed by offers.

Agree with most of that, but I'm not even thinking about those in fragile circumstances at this point (although that is clearly an issue). I mean, I wasn't even searching for this, but this appeared in my twitter feed this morning

I appreciate I left little to assist your conclusion, but that isn't it at all. This isn't the the path I want us going down. If this applies / impacts a few thousand Tesla 'owners' so enamoured by the that cultish

With respect, I've seen the suprise element happen too often for it to be considered rare (possibly different country, different legalities, but still, it's a global company. Mail goes to the wrong address, e-mail ends up in spam

This is my problem with it. Not that payments shouldn't be kept up to date. But that it moves decision making on the issue to a corporate entity a million miles away and you can bet there won't be any accounting for personal situa

Oh shoot, the voice control is very cool, I missed it ... more advanced than I'd imagined. Nice one.

I take your point, but the "you do realise there is a global pandemic on" take I hear often is also tiresome. I'm experiencing first-hand, in our business, the hassles and challenges that have come with Brexit (during a globa
