Late replying to this thread but frankly I need a vent!

Returned from a 2 week holiday to a bin fire of work. Nice to know I’m a useful cog in the machine but horrified to realise how key I am in the day to day operation of the firm as well. Trying to parse the inner workings of HMRC’s PAYE systems which have decided I owe them £700 odd quid (not my first run in with PAYE being fucking weird, but that’s a longer more depressing story).

Only been at work for 4 days and it feels like I’ve been there months again. Can’t focus on anything in the office much, stressed out, and too broke to pay for counselling again!

I’ve basically already forgotten how chilled I felt on my hols. What’s the point?!

Still, I’m standing up and not crying, so there’s that at least.

It’s insane.

What gets my goat the most is that farmers take collectve action over the most insanely selfish shit, but are happy to be absolutely rinsed over things that are actively making their lives worse!

Imagine if they actually pooled their resources to make sure they got fair pay from supermarkets instead of shitting themselves over inheritance tax and hunting bans.

I say this as someone who lives and works alongside farmers. I have a huge degree of respect for the amount of work a lot of them do, but fuck me they’re a short slighted bunch.

Absolutely amazing take.

Maybe worry about the state of the NHS rather than your election prospects?

Imagine being such a shitty manager that your workforce walk out on you.

Yeah but remember! No farmers no food! They’re the unsung heroes who do no wrong and are the guardians of the countryside! /S

It’s a difficult sell because it’s unreasonable.

Doctors get paid vastly more than most of the public (I’m both the private and public sectors), including the healthcare workers whose labour supports them in their work.

Has anyone seen a rise in wages which is equivalent to the increase in inflation?

So she’s been caught speeding and got caught again, and again, and again, and again!
