I once made the mistake of saying I was willing to relocate, like to a different city or something, and they took that to mean anywhere on the planet. And all the jobs they were asking me about when weird places like Saudi Arabia, and it wasn't even well paid.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 6 days ago

But there were probably benefits like if you work hard they might give you your passport back. Maybe.

That sounds like a good way to get trafficked lol

Sounds like the head office is in SE London but you'll be inspecting areas on the NW side for fire safety adherence, right?

If so, it isn't like the businesses can bring their whole business down to the office for inspection. I bet "Steve" has the area close to the office but "Jane" just quit and they need someone to cover her old area.

This reminds me of the description of why field positions are listed under remote jobs to often. Yes, the reason I was searching for remote jobs was so I can travel to your remote locations all throughout the day, not because my vehicle has 230,000 miles on it and I can't afford to replace it at the moment.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago

Sure, but then you're not looking for jobs like "Fire Risk Assessor" which clearly indicates you'll have to travel to sites and Assess their Risk of Fire on site, so you could safely scroll past something like that and look for something like "Remote Computer Doer" that at least indicates it's probably remote computer type stuff.

Is 48800 enough to live jn London?

[–] NickwithaC 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Yes. Even £20,000 is liveable in London although if you really want to maximise your London experience you'll want more than that.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

if you really want to maximize your london experience you should rent a closet in a hallway for £5000 per month

.... Is it possible the office is in Southeast London but the actual work is North and West?

[–] [email protected] 107 points 1 week ago

This is how field service jobs are written in my experience, yes.

Unrelated but this is literally the first time in my life I've seen an actual 9-5 job, I only ever see 8-5 or 9-6

[–] [email protected] 10 points 6 days ago

It's because they reckon on 8-hour days but then under UK law they have to give you two 15-minute breaks and one 30-minute lunch. So they decide that they don't like that so you've got to work the hours back so they add an extra hour on and then claim that your break times don't count.

But the problem with that is the only reason that I'm having a break in the town rather than at my house is because of all the other hours I'm doing around it. So really they should be paying for it. Capitalism is going to capitalism.

[–] grue 71 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That extra hour of wage theft is why it's the most prevalent kind of theft.

My favorite is when the title says remote or local to you, but then the body of the posting says you would be required to relocate and that it was intentionally posted in multiple cities to reach a wider audience.

If I wanted to work in Minnesota, I would have searched for jobs in Minnesota.

[–] _number8_ 63 points 1 week ago (8 children)

why does everyone have to have "excellent" skills? just logically not everyone can have excellent skills, or there wouldn't be excellent skills. i very much doubt everyone currently working there also has equally "excellent" skills. you can't just say you have to be perfect. i fucking hate this shit

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago

Yeah at my job at the end of each week my boss will assign priorities to tasks as not priority to high priority. She'll change them around and discuss why for about 45 minutes and by the end of the meeting every single task is listed as highest priority every week. If everything is always equally the highest priority is anything a priority anymore? Lol
