Gotta say, you rarely and I do mean rarely see any fights where I live and there are plenty of boozers and drinkers. Could be cultural. I never enter a bar/club, even one I’ve never been to before and look around/over my shoulder for the cnuts. In Blighty it’s always been a natural thing.

I thought that spouses could get British citizenship/visa entry on producing the legal marriage certificates

Check out Revolut online account. They give really good exchange rates and the money stays in your Revolut account in a different currency.

Meanwhile my mrs (Honduran) can’t join me in UK to visit my mum because she needs a visa now (150 notes non-refundable if refused). Plus, a shit ton of paperwork to submit, all for a fuucking weeks holiday. Rules changed last year because people from Central American countries (700 in a year) applied for asylum at the border. f***ing easier to send her on a dingy FFS

Just finished binging Shogun…. Meh! The book is a thousand times better. In fact, I’d say the series actually pissed me off. With so much missing from the book (my favourite novel ever) 5.5/10 for me! I can’t believe Clavell’s daughter was part of production and signed off on it.

Same shit here mate. Dickhead sliced top of his wrist a few years ago, imo all needed was a couple of staples. Took him to the nearest vets as mine is is a bit away. Cnut starts barking on about antibs', stitches, anesthetic and overnight stays... think it was around 600€ he wanted. Told him to f**k off, I'm not paying for his new Audi... Took him to my normal vets, he took one look and said "grapas no?" (staples) 15€ is all it cost me!

Did you just call Gnash a cnut

And yes it means to be agile lol. So being open and able to adapt and adjust to changes in a project. Putting certain things to the side to tackle a more important task. For example the website needs an extra button that maybe allows clients to get direct access to sales and the hierarchy only thought it would be a good idea halfway through the project.

Basic explanation of an IT project product - new website Stakeholders - the business managers/hierarchy who want the new website PO - product owner, responsible for ensuring the stakeholder requirements are handed to the SM correctly and to follow the projects development. SM - scrum master, responsible as a buffer between the hierarchy + PO and the dev team. Also a team lead/coach Dev team - bunch of twats who create the damn website. SCRUM - methodology for managing projects. Breaking them down into parts that can be completed in 2 week sprints. There’s a

You’ll make more if you write a book aswell lol

This is an average. Depending on years of experience & more importantly, the perception of your ability easy to earn more. Most Agile coaches will work around 3 days a week.

As for the ratio I would probably agree with the 1/1000… I just happen to know a good few through my work over the years. Banks have to fork out in some cases nearly 100k a day for a mainframe engineer to deal with legacy infrastructure etc. Normally it’s a bloke who’s about 70+ years old lol

No mate not devs more as you say C-suite/consultant level. My mate is one of those who gets parachuted in to fix shit within the teams/departments, not the coding itself. A high level coder can easily earn over 100k, depending the project, length of time, experience etc. I have another mate who works with Pega earning 6 figures. An experienced SM, PO, Agile coach can pull anywhere from 600 (SM/PO)-2k (Agile coach) a day. I had one consultant who charged Sapient Razor Fish 20k for a days work

You should be able to check the serial number online mate.

I've seen my fair share of blaggers over the years (I've probably over 300 nobhead CVs stored to check against).. Only one got past me in a hiring process.. She was fuucked off within a week for crashing the backend of a bank's custom CRM lol. Nothing more frustrating than a dev/team that doesn't hold their hands up and even worse is a PO or SM that can't lead or collaborate. I would disagree on the niche bit a little, you can specialise and earn big but you can also be good at what you do and earn big.
