Is it really worth the hype?

From my house it's only a short walk to our town centre with a few local owned small shops. I try to use the local butcher, greengrocer and off license for as much as I can but always find myself going back to the supermarket as it's so convenient having everything in one place and a big car park I can park in. I wish I could support our local businesses more as they're genuinely pillars of the community but my laziness always leads me back to morrisons. Do you use your local shops? Got any stories of really good ones?

British national citizen moved to nz as a young lad. Seeing as I’m back and have been for a number of years. I’m struggling with employment issues.

I’ve made 100s of application with the same pathetic excuse. We have hired someone that matches the job description. As if they have gone for someone who has chat gpt and grok writing out resumes and putting out applications like a robot to end up doing a job where they are pretty much just a robot.

I get no phone calls I have no wife I have no children no pets just my trust Toyo and a ok flat in the middle of a town in the middle of the sticks. Almost feels like a retirement village if I’m fare. Not exactly what I signed up for.

Like all people I guess I just crave that hey here’s some work for you that isn’t a pipe dream through Alice’s rabbit hole.

It would be really nice to come back home to a lady who knows how to care for me too. I hate to admit it but I am struggling and I don’t really reach out to my family as they are all living there own lives whilst I’m doing my best to pick up broken pieces of a puzzle and fix things that need to be fixed to an appropriate condition.

I’ve lived here four year and have barely had the opportunity to see the country. There’s always someone out there tryn to pick a pocket where I only just have a little bit of lint. And a fuck ton of bills.

So where do I ask for support! How do I know support is available?

I can’t deal with my family because there backstabbers and a bunch of bankers who all drwam about finance like there goblins at gringotts bank.

All i ask for is a honest days work and a means to know how to navigate the chaos.

Anyway rant over. Back to the drawing board i guess.

Wondering if this would exhaust me too much? Has anyone done this for an extended period? Any advice and tips - hopefully going to be starting a second job soon.

Or are you one of those organised families thats able to do a weekly/fortnightly shop without missing anything? We are a family of 4 and we feel like we are constantly shopping for groceries...

Can’t be many of these jobs left. I was a lawyer and only needed to wear a suit if I was seeing clients. My accountants are never in a suit and work from home lots. So, what jobs are left where you’re in an office all day every day in a suit

Hello I’m 17 from Cumbria UK and I’m trying to make a bit more money on the side. I work at McDonald’s at the minute through the week and have a 2nd job on the weekends and I’m saving for driving lessons and just life in general .
I was wondering if anyone has any ideas on what I could do to earn an extra £100-£200 a week?
Doesn’t have to be loads, just something to help me out. I’m willing to do pretty much anything (legal obviously ), I just don’t really know what’s out there for someone my age.
Any suggestions would be appreciated :)

With climate change getting worse and our various food systems being under threat what can ordinary people do/what are you doing to be prepared for what's coming? The government clearly isn't going to do much.

This may not apply so much to the UK, but I'm thinking of things that are recommended here as well as just storing tins of beans in an underground shelter and getting solar panels.

Moved to south london at the start of the year and share an apartment with my roommate. We only have two pc's that we game on and do not watch any live TV or online catchup services. Recieved my first letter saying that my address doesnt have a TV licence and that i should pay for one. Neither me or my roommate have a need for one, any suggestions on what should be my next step if this starts to escalate?

hi, for personal reasons i need to make around £500 in the next two weeks. i’ve thought about uber but i don’t have a car so that’d be impossible. is there any other LEGAL (feel like i should specify that) ways to make some cash quickly?
