Full time where I work is 37 hours a week with a 5 hour Friday. I've asked for a 4 day week by splitting those 5 hours over the other 4 days but have been refused. This seems to be about giving workers the right to request this arrangement, it shouldn't force anyone to do it if they are happier sticking with their current 5 day week.
It only takes one person to fuck it up. I agree it's stupid, but introducing a conflicting standard increases the chances of someone fucking it up in the name of progressiveness. Needless to say I killed off the main branch that someone one had tried to make to replace the master branch.
It's all good and well until you start working in a repo that has both master and main branches for some reason, and it is not clear which is actually the master/main branch.
This sort of thing works for me, I think the key is instead of trying to quiet your mind, if you instead keep it busy with something mundane or relaxing until it just switches off. Sometimes I pick numbers and do multiplication in my head, and eventually I'm close enough to falling asleep that I forget the two numbers I'm multiplying and at that point I stop and fall asleep within minutes.
What is the alternative? Piracy?
Poorer people are not sending their children to private school
Anyone who actually needs the winter fuel payment will still get it - people who get pension credits for example. There are many pensioners getting winter fuel payments that are plenty well off and do not need the free cash, my Grandma is one of them. She will make a fuss about how she needs it but she is by far the most well off in our family.
Belgian, so I'm surprised they were sensible enough to wear any kind of footwear
Central funding for further education has been cut massively since tuition fees were increased, so they have had an overall reduction in income from teaching
I recommend you read Ian Gribbin's comments, they're in another league. I wouldn't call the first comment about Jo Cox hate speech either, but it is certainly in poor taste.
Malcolm Cupis's comments are pretty bad too
If the council maintained the road markings like they are supposed to then companies meeting their obligations to repaint markings would never make the news. It only gets picked up on when the original marking is basically non existent anyway.
