She’s a young woman if that makes a difference. First time I’ve had a friend in prison, not sure if there’s anything I could bring / send her that would be any help. She’s an old friend and I’m not sure if she’s got many people in her life still.
Thanks
I see SO many posts describing racist/sexist/homophobic people as ‘uneducated chavs’. This is meant to dismiss their views as silly, but it reads as totally classist!
You don’t need a ‘good’ job or university degree to be a kind or respectful person. I’ve known plenty wealthy & well educated people hold shockingly bigoted views, and many of the working class people I grew up with are the first to call out someone who isn’t acting right.
If you genuinely believe someone only has these views because they’re ‘uneducated’ - maybe hold off on calling them a chav and consider if you’re actually angry at them or the fact that state schools are so neglected and underfunded. If you actually think they’re a bigot or being wilfully ignorant, describe them as such.
TLDR: You sound like a knob describing anyone bigoted as ‘Dave from the pub’. Dave is actually a really nice bloke, it’s John down the road you want to look out for.
Edit: spelling
In real need of a job … I have a contract starting in September so it’s more of a stop-gap between now and then. Does anyone know of local agencies that I could get some 0 hours or temp work with? I’d be up for doing basically that isn’t KP-ing! I‘ve done bar work, receptionist, waiting, housekeeping, and shop work
Looking for someone who does work with a similar vibe as the pics attached - quite feminine, nature themes, all black
None of my local mates have tattoos in this style so need to go elsewhere for recs!
Finally hit pan on my (probably expired) eyeshadow pallet & looking to transition to buying singles - any recommendations for UK available singles is highly appreciated!
I’ve heard mixed reviews about MAC eyeshadows, are they worth the splurge?
Could do with some help/guidance someone who is coming out of their first episode (UK).
I know recovery is going to be long & not linear, but I don’t know anyone personally who has gone through anything like this who I can ask for advice.
We don’t live in the same city any more (approx 5hrs away) but I’ve been making an effort to go see him at least once a month since he went in to hospital. Even I don’t feel quite ready to process how bad things were before he went in to hospital, so I don’t even know how this is going to be for him if/when he remembers what happened.
Is there anything practically helpful I can offer? Any words of wisdom that really helped you? I just don’t want him to feel alone in this ….
Current trainee thinking about what to qualify in.
I was told to pick based on the work rather than the team, which makes sense, but I find the people I work with make a much bigger difference to how enjoyable work-life is compared to the work itself.
So my question is - if I get on with (for example) the real estate or dispute team at my firm the best, am I likely to prefer those teams at other firms?
