Considering the ombudsman isn't where those cases go (the ombudsman doesn't hear cases of any kind), I feel pretty confident calling either…

And if you read a little bit further down, you will see that the protections against unfair dismissal still apply. You can't arbitrarily…

Lol. Did you really just rely on an HR company blog post for your legal knowledge? There was a reason you couldn't find a more reputable…

How exactly do you think resignation works? You appear to be thinking it applies from the time an employee says "I am going to resign on…

Fantastic rebuttal, great points you made there.

Even nanoplastics are too heavy to remain airborne for long - they are a food and drink issue, not an air issue. That's why it's not about…

Assuming we are talking about someone employed on a continuing basis (i.e. not casual, which has no notice period), then there are…

Not guaranteed pay, because the company can legally terminate within the notice period for all of the normal termination reasons. It would…

It's the opposite of defeatist - it's realist. You can spend your limited effort and energy on something that will do something meaningful,…

This is like trying to save the oceans by banning plastic straws - it's an almost entirely useless gesture that causes maximum…

Whole bunch of people missing the point - the shares being in the toilet are all the proof the pudding needs. Nobody said the game wasn't…

The game might be amazing - that wasn't the point. The point is that you can make an absolutely incredible hamburger, but calling it a soup…

Not really - they went with an action game, so very few FF fans actually want to touch it. It honestly feels dirty for them to call it a…

Curiosity and asking questions are great things to do - making claims of what is and what should be when you don't know what you're talking…

>A lot of Jewish people there, and they get along with everyone Why. Why do people with no clue about history feel qualified to make…

Yes, it was a stupid idea. But once again, *present an alternative*. It's like Churchill saying that democracy is the worst form of…

Yes, the situation is not ideal. The alternatives, however, were far worse. Jews did not 'emigrate' to create Israel, nor did they…

Not really a US-triggered thing on day 1. The Suez crisis that showed up the UK and France as being has-beens and led to the US taking…

Point to a moment when there wasn't active conflict between those groups, at any point since the origins of Islam? First you had the local…

The idea that Israel is the trigger for hatred between Islam-majority and Christian-majority countries is honestly hilarious with the…

Which would you be better entrusting your health to - medical science, which never takes action based on single studies for precisely the…

Worth pointing out that a [key supporter](https://corporate.iherb.com/#leadership) of this site is [Dr…

The reward from a lucky bag are tangible things that require resources to produce. The fact it's like a gateway drug for gambling (which is…

Not on the console itself, but save editing for console games is a thing. Corporate lockdowns being a fantastic reason to play things on PC…

It's not the gambling that is the core issue, though gambling itself is something I'd be happy to ban as a side thing. It's the fact that…

They don't cost money, no, because they wanted to avoid the pending loot box legislation which was a hot news topic when it was first…

The whole idea of this mechanic makes my stomach turn - gambling for the sake of digital nonsense that isn't buying creative work in the…

A cash discount is literally the same thing, just changes how you advertise the price.

No, companies have an entirely different portal, or a human agent. You typically pay under net30 terms or similar, not random credit cards.…
