Wrong! This country is an embarrassment, and I’ve never said I’m British before my parents nationality. 

Ah man, the town I live near is overrun by the roadman thing, it’s genuinely not a nice place to visit anymore.

Wrong, 99% of kids, or worse, adults, dressed up like a roadman will be an insufferable douche, so any judgement is fully justified

5ft 9 ain’t something to even brag about

Same. OP do you have a TODR version, please

I haven’t really noticed for various reasons, but last night it reared its ugly head. Dinner for 2 last night was £82, and we ate - X2 starters X2 burgers X1 side of coleslaw X2 soft drinks The food was good, but this was at a small market town in the arse end of Wiltshire. I couldn’t help but complain to the manager who happened to be serving us and he said “so, that’ll be no tip for us then?” 😂

I’m in this trench right now. 3 months in and it’s brutal.

This can only be rage bate

I hate emojis on Reddit, but god damn, your comment made me laugh 😂

No, I’m based in Bristol and work for a local company. The network is unbelievably complex, which is why the salary is so high. When I first started in networking I was on 38k, so your company is pulling your pants down, especially as you’re in London imho

Network engineer, almost entirely remote. 65-70k, with 6 years of experience. It’s a complicated job, sometimes the challenge feels daunting and overwhelming, but I like my salary and pension more than the mental pain it causes me sometimes.

You maniac! No exaggeration, the kettle in my kitchen will get you to your destination faster, and more efficiently than Apple Maps

This has to be rage bait

I said exactly the same thing tonight to my gf while driving home. I had to flash most cars to dip their headlights tonight, apart from own muppet who was either too stupid to realise their full beams were on, or so arrogant they didn’t care. I flashed twice, before turning on my main beams, fog lights and led light bar. I lit the road up like it was daytime. I could see every single one of the passengers clear as day in their car, and only then they dipped their full beams. 😆

This is a regular and not a new occurrence. The majority of drivers can’t just a safe distance from the car in front, but absolutely hate it when someone does it back to them. I once car shared with a colleague who tailgated everyone and then went apocalyptic when someone dared to get a bit too close to his bumper. My fav thing to do when I’m on my motorbike and being tailgated, is to turn around and make the “shoo” motion with my hand. It works a treat and sometimes I get an apology 😂

Oh boy, I feel the same. I also work in IT but in networks. Some of my colleagues are SO passionate about tech and constantly come up with new fandango ways of doing stuff. I’m there just for the money and good pension, I couldn’t give a toss about the new tech in my industry. It’s boring AF, but they absolutely eat it up. Yeah, it’s probably time for a break or change of career, but tech salaries are good and I want to retire as early as possible 😆.

Hi OP I also grew up without having a dad around, and like you, my mum was fantastic. But she just couldn’t control me. I desperately needed a male influence, and craved doing cool dad stuff, like building a go-kart. I have since apologised to my mum, and, now I have my first child on his way in a matter of weeks. I can’t wait to always be there for my little dude. Every sports day, going to the park, kicking a ball around, basically, everything I missed out on. I’m probably sharing too much, but, lately I’ve been having waves of emotions that I haven’t felt since I was a child. The feeling of being lost is my main emotion, and I never want my child to feel like that, it’s just awful. Out of interest, what books have you been reading? I feel your pain OP.

Blimey, I’m glad you’re not my colleague

V8 or V10 engines coming back to F1 thanks to the investment in sustainable fuels. The turbo charged V6’s can get in the bin. My Shark hoover sounds better than they do 😆
