The year is 1983 and an alien fleet appears in orbit around Earth, wanting to establish a trading base and headed by the royal family, who all wear masks. Bodie is with CI5 and is part of the British security team for the negotiations on board the flagship, when he receives an offer of marriage from one of the alien princes, who he had talked to for maybe five minutes and whose face he had not seen.

It's an AU of The Professionals, but it's perfectly fine to read as original fiction.

It certainly has its flaws, but the characters and the worldbulding especially, stand on their own. And as a (relatively) young'un, it feels kind of amazing to read a slash fic that was written in 1997!

I am thinking about applying for a job in Oil & gas in West Texas but i want to make sure I am applying for the right position.

The position is described as a 'Yardman' but seems like it is a higher level warehouseman basically.

What I want to find out is the differences (if any) between a yardman and a warehouseman and what i can expect to be doing for this job. I have experience in Warehousing jobs but not in Oil & Gas.

Any help on this would be really appreciated.

Looking for a position in a warehouse with great management and culture. I have about 10 years of warehouse experience picking, receiving, etc etc. Ive been trained on many types of equipment. I have supervisor experience and lead experience. In addition i have always exceeded productivity and accuracy standards. Im currently looking for a position with advancement opportunities, great pay and fun to work at that will lead to an actual career.
I would also entertain the idea of a position outside of warehousing.

Do your worst!

It really does, I swear!

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.

Aye mau tanya dong, apakah part time multiple jobs dan side hustle / daylighting belum umum di indonesia?

Aye ada 2 kisah teman dan kolega aye soal ini soalnya

1. Ada teman gereja aye part time di 2 tempat sudah 2 tahun (satu jadi warehouseman depot tempat lama aye tiap hari selasa, sabtu dan minggu, satu lagi jadi receptionist salon, tiap hari senin, rabu dan jumat) lucunya tiap kali dia apply job selalu ditanyakan begini

'Mas kok bisa part timer bertahun tahun?'

'Mas, gimana ceritanya bisa part time di 2 tempat? Manage waktunya bagaimana?'

Dan karena dia part time multiple job, dia sama bosnya cerita kalau background checkingnya bisa lebih dari 2 kali

2. Ini kolega aye sih, satu dia sudah karyawan kontrak di workplace aye, tapi dia juga ada side hustle atau daylighting (aye gak bisa bedain jadi cmiiw) jadi part time data entry helper di warung visa tempat istrinya kerja selama 9 bulan (karena data entry helper kerjaannya singkat, dia tiap hari tinggal minta tasklist dari istrinya.. kalau pengisian data sama form untuk pengajuan visa sudah jelas tinggal kirim lewat email, btw dia bisa jadi data entry helper karena dari tahun kemarin sudah banyak pengajuan visa, mau visa schengen, oktb, visa US B1/B2, C1D dll... Dan karena kolega aye posisinya admin support, dia seperti dihire istrinya untuk bantu handle ratusan applicant)

nasibnya sama seperti teman aye, kalau dia iseng apply job, perusahaannya tempat dia apply melongo dan sering background check kolega aye

Thoughts? Apakah konsep part time multiple job, side hustle dan daylighting belum umum di indonesia?

Pilot on me!!

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.

If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.

Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.

When I got home, they were still there.

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.

Daughter: I'm hungry

Me: nerves building, smile widening

Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.

She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.

Thank you all for listening.

Okay so here's my background story and current situation:

I left school after sixth form in 2006 with three A-levels (B in English Literature and C,C for Business Studies Double Award). Went to uni to study English Lit but dropped out after just a few months and ended up getting a dead-end, full-time warehouse job that paid just a little bit above the minimum wage. I stayed in this job for the next 10-years (so until I was 29 years old).

To cut a long story short, my mental health suffered greatly in this place. I don't know how I stuck the job out for a whole decade (2007 to 2017), but I did. The supervisors were mostly nasty people who bullied me and micromanaged me to the max and the job was so physically grueling, I was constantly exhausted. I thought to myself, 'I just cannot do this anymore'. The thought of being in that kind of work for the rest of my days made me extremely depressed and took my mind to dark places. So I decided to go back to university in an attempt to better myself, improve my opportunities and hopefully set myself on the path to getting a meaningful, rewarding career that would bring my life fulfillment.

I studied at a university in London (2017 to 2020) and graduated with First Class Honours. I had the best three-years of my life at the uni. I made good, genuine friendships with lovely people from all around the world, from different cultures and backgrounds and ethnicities - it was amazing. I also did a couple of work experience weeks with a couple of very big, respectable companies. Life was so good, and for the first time ever in my life, I experienced true happiness ....I finally knew what it meant to be happy. I felt my life was "going somewhere".

This post is already long enough and I know attention spans these days aren't great, so I'll cut a long story short: basically since graduating in summer 2020, I have not been able to secure graduate/degree-level employment. I have had to leave London as I couldn't afford to pay the rent for my room without a job and I'm back in my hometown (a small industrial town where there are no opportunities for ambitious, aspirational people ...all we have here are grueling warehouse and factory jobs with low-pay and very bad working conditions where people are micromanaged and treated dreadfully). I managed to find employment but I'm working for minimum wage in a warehouse. I'm being worked to the bone, treated like a bag of **** and am just constantly so tired. I don't know how m
