They say that because if 2 people go for a job and one as a FLT they are more favourable.


I've applied for 3/4 jobs that I don't have the qualification they say, but it also says that you are willing to get that qualification.

I see this often, especially with the bush types that are marked "no staking required".

After a major collapse due to weight snapping bundles of bamboo, I now grow my cordon toms up rebar.

Smartphones . . why do settings seem more 'confusing' than smart?

if you disable function B, function A will stop working.
however, if you disable function C2, then function A will work with function B disabled.
This also means that function D (which relies on function C2) will only work between the hours of 6pm and 4am and in silent mode, unless function E is set to enhance global volumes.
Be aware that function C2 will automatically enable itself every Tuesday and Thursday at midnight.

If you require further help, press and hold buttons K and M while tapping lightly on the top left corner of the screen.

i have analysed your problem and the sad fact is you are too old for a smart phone, get yourself a couple of homing pigeons and a stress ball ;)

see, even that's changed, it used to be the good old IDO10T ;)

on a serious note though, I'm certainly getting more frustrated with having to search through 15 sub menus (some hidden) to find the setting I need to enable/disable something. :(

I thought it was ID10T no need for the extra letter PEBKAC is as old as the hills

Have you tried using the Search facility in Settings?

Re: Moans and Pet Hates
 
It's quite annoying that

A) I can't spell idiot
B) The search setting is inside an area labeled:

"caution, attempting to alter settings within this menu may cause extreme bouts of anger and frustration, you're better off just setting everything to auto update then placing the phone in a drawer to do whatever it wants"

I may upgrade to an airfix model of the Golden Hind :D
