Most IT projects fail (to a greater or lesser extent). Keeps me in work though!
Luckily I happened to be on a video call with my mum as the postman arrived, so I got to see her opening the personalised card that I sent.
Says something that WhatsApp is a better way of tracking post than Royal Mailā¦
i donāt know what you mean.
BADER, with its Sharepoint, Ultilearn, SMS and others have never ever had an issue in the last 20+ yearsā¦right?
Happy New Year!
First day back in the office. We only have Nescafe Original in the kitchen. Itās going to be a long first day back
This is full of coffee, my boss is back today so a day playing xbox keeping teams green is off the cards
Dealing with Virgin Media on live chat for a simple cancellation !
Ah. But do you really want to cancel? Are you sure - they have such a good deal that they can offer just for you?
Iāve been running with the new supplier for 2 months, just waiting to get to the end of my 18 months.
Using Toob now, 900 up & down FTTP all for Ā£29 fixed for the next 2 years
GMG. That alarm going off this morning as we return to normal routine.
That wasnāt welcome.at all.
The 2025 honeymoon period is over.
Never heard of them, then I looked at their coverage map and realised why
Yeah we are with trooli who popped out of nowhere
Fibre was installed on our street last week. Half way down. They stopped when they got to the āsmallerā houses. According to the street gang drawing the cables it will be hooked up to the newer build flats and the ābiggerā houses opposite them.
Completed my Range Recce today for next months Short Range shoot (not a gear)
58 mile round trip = Ā£14.50 organisational cost
10 mins on siteā¦ looks like the same barrack range I used 5 years ago
Partial day of annual leave used.
Value add = NIL
IF I had used within the past 12 months I would have only done a recce via phone to tell the warden I want 2 x Fig 11s per laneā¦ barrack only allows Fig 11s now.
Why do we do this to ourselves?
EDIT: Range was in use with a late bid, so recce completed from outside the fence!
There is a puddle though, that may or may not be there in a month
Bang it on value our volunteers. Itās garbage like this that kills motivation and is just not common sense.
Itās an Army policy within CTR so not within the remit of our leaders to change.
@bob / @dazizian are the most likely to be able to effect change here at a HQ level.
I know full well where it comes from but keeping quiet about the stupidity is definitely not going to change anything!
Are cadets allowed to shoot at fig. 11s again, or do you still have to paste the legs of one over the upper body of another to create a weird four legged target (without the traditional aiming marker of the soldierās wrist)?
Thatās never been a thing, but if available double Legs 11 should be used.
Would be daft considering the wider implementation of blank firing nowā¦
āNo, you canāt shoot real ammo at a fake person, but you can shoot fake ammo at a real person.ā
Nah itās got to be old school cadet blank firing where you have to aim 45 degrees into the airā¦
