Are others having the FOMO of not getting the eclipse glasses soon enough?
I was seeing that they were going to be given away for free at viewing events but now they are gold dust, gone everywhere. I won't make it to view it next in 2090!

Bought 3 books directly from publisher in the UK directly as I always did. Instead of using middle man or Amazon. Well, I've learned my lesson... it wasn't flagged on the website, only notified by An Post, genuine text today.
Live and learn... need to pay more attention to the news
I know Cork is a large county and some applicants may not want city locations. Most people may pass interview stage. There's hardly that many vacancies over a 1 year or possibly 2 year cycle.
Am I right that my chances at a role are extremely slim?
I'm delighted I've been offered a TCO role within my own first preference department. It's for 6 months though. I knew under a year was a possibility.
My ranking for the CO was similar so hopefully I might get an interview for that in the next few months.
Wondering do the TCO get extended if you can show your capability?
Also, would are line managers open for time away from the desk for CO interviews? The TCO was only 20 minutes, I imagine the CO would be similar 30 minutes maybe
Save your money on the electricity bill and open the windows...
It was cooler last night too

Looking for a recommendation for automatic driving instructor, who doesn't show up late and finishes early.
Wanting a truly professional instructor.
There has to be someone who has had such an instructor that can give a recommendation
Can you bring in any food or water? If you stay for one or two supporting acts that's a long time
This is in my experience. It is the time of year that people will be applying again for their September courses. I was very disappointed in what I found to be poor level of knowledge, teaching and critical thinking in the tutors. In my experience I would not recommend this college
Let it be known that we will not tolerate them being late unless they make up the time or reduce the cost of that specific lesson.
​
No changing appointment time with only 2 hours notice.
​
No finishing ten minutes early, unless it's suggested by their employer i.e the student.
​
No belittling comments.
​
No probing deeply into students personal life where it isn't warranted.
​
No keeping on more and more lessons only to get money out of a student. Or the opposite pushing them to do a test when they are not ready as it's costs more to hire the car.
​
There is a huge demand for driving lessons. It's a vulnerable position to be the student, you are stuck in a car with someone who has a different power dynamic. I hate having experienced driving instructors that were unprofessional. As driving instructors are in such a demand in Cork City, students can be afraid to rock the boat and be assertive when it comes to unprofessionalism. This old fashioned view that learning to drive is a right of passage, people can equate the suffering they face by unprofessionalism as part of the process, it shouldn't be.
This event makes me very cautious. The website seems to have been sanitised lately. In one clip on the website currently this 3 hours of breathing exercises is compared to 20 years of therapy.
​
​
Look at the waiver form, this is an indication to be cautious if they need to state all this.

​
It can be the power of the crowd. I worry that vulnerable people get sucked into these practices and it can certainly do more harm than good. Bad for the bank balance too. Forming real community, friendship and be assertive is far better than 'wellness' subcultures

The petty stuff we have to deal with in a house share. I've experienced it all. Sadly, as a female who has been in the house the longest I can't make a reasonable ask as if I do I get that used against me. I had a housemate corner me by the sink recently start shouting at me, and lifted up my headphones, poking me in the shoulder repeatedly as I moved her sponge.
I can't use the shower as it's full of grim and spit, having wash downs in the bath using a basin. Couldn't deal with the pettiness of being ignored if I asked them to clean.
I've made reasonable asks the last two years, such as please don't use the washing machine at 1am, stop washing food and oil down the kitchen sink. These things got twisted to me being controlling. As I've been here the longest the agency treats me as the point of contact for contractors this gets twisted against me too, I'm not begging for that or withholding info
It's all absurd. Anyone who has survived living in a house share for beyond their 30s, is the truly resilient person!!
We deserve acknowledgment for surviving this.
Recently as I got abused/ bullied by an unstable housemate while she's nice to others just shows me how us tenants in house shares get unnoticed. We deal with a lot.
I want my medal!!! Haha...
I'm joking when I say there needs to be a support group for us tenants in house shares.
I just finished watching Tip Toe I was left with the unease of how there is such little media coverage of it for such a timely and important series. Adolescence rightly received huge attention here, in the media and being discussed by politicians. Tip Toe is very important and it isn't getting the same attention, this isn't accidental. It's a difficult watch but a very important one.

In my teen and early 20s I was incorrectly prescribed SSRIs, it was never depression but PMDD. I've stopped taking SSRIs 8 years ago and I still can't orgasm, feel anything. I've been taking the pill the last year for PMDD (extreme PMS) working brilliantly.
I've tried sex toys. They don't help. My diet is good. Female diagrams isn't available in Ireland.
It prevents me from having a relationship .
Wanting to know have GPs helped anyone. It isn't psychological. This is a real side effect from SSRIs.
I need a cure!!!
Over the last two weeks it's a constant on the radio stations. It's been years since I've sat my leaving cert and then too all of the coverage on the radio and the television was too much. It'll be a constant now as well covering every exam and then too come the results. The media needs to fill slots but they need to look into how it is damaging to the young person
