The UK Growers Thread!

i might try a guerrilla grow if the weather looks good,i was thinking about using big buddha critical mass auto,i done them in the tent from seed (9wks from seed to crop) with quite good results,i think with our climate autos wud be worth doing outdoors as 9 wks is no time at all.
 
Its the same cunt that tried to invest in Rangers. Thats was the settlement 5k and a rwference disnt wnt to go bk but the a found out he not been givin a ref n a cany prove it.

Aye am good lads livin quietly,got 3 psychos,a maple leaf,a purplewreck n wot a think is a blue cheese found the seed under the fridge lol. All due dwn in 4 wks then am packin up to go right thru ma landlordn get shit fixed in the house

everyine else's gardens blooming?
 
I've got a wee psycho been flowering for 3 weeks and looking good,LST,d the shit out of it so I don't end up with all that fluff that she and the exo produce. and a dog kush and lemon kush on 12/12fs they aren't showing sex yet, the dog is a great wee looker very short but with mad amounts of side shoots and the closest node spacing I've seen on a plant. My lem kush is a leggy fucker, had to top her twice but she keeps reaching for the stars. May have to copy don and super crop it verticaly across the space. All in a new location of course;)
 
More people work > More Production/Productivity > Costs of products decrease > Cost of living decreases > Most goods are affordable to all (i.e 900 euro pram ffs, get a cheaper pram, lol, but they would also reduce in price) > More cash flow > More Money being spent > More spendable income > Greater Savings > Greater Investment > EVEN MORE PRODUCTIVITY

Being in recruitment I have seen a lot of people retrain themselves, and end up with high end jobs. You just got to be a bit pro-active. 2 guys I know in the Dam, 1 has been unemployed for quite a while, has job experience but is a lazy toe rag. The other guy, no job experience, hardly speaks much English (that's why I get on with him, lol), he got off his arse, walked around practically every hotel in Amsterdam look ing for any old work, and now has a job. Okay, he doesn't get a lot more than the guy on the dole, but he's got a job and funnily enough, jobs lead to better jobs, which lead to more pay. Too many short term thinking people imo. To better yourselve you must think further ahead than the next month, or even year, or 5 years.....

And yes, I am sure good old Sambo will think of a way to disagree, just like my mate who is on the dole, finds an excuse for everything, lmfao. (and no, I am not saying you are on the dole ya roll and butter!)
 
Problem these days is that a lot of employers use recruitment agencies so you have to suffer for weeks with a days work here n there and being cancelled at the last minute and turning up n not being required etc or you have to do 12 weeks on the agency before the company will take you on full time and by the time you have done ya 12 weeks there isnt a job for you or they get rid of you befoe 12 weeks to avoid giving you a job and all the time you cant sign on because your working, and the occasional work you get thru the agency is not enough to run a house on a provide for ya family.

Im 31 now and ive worked since i was 13 and every year it gets harder to find or keep a job unless you wanna be an agency worker n get treated like shit or work on a zero hours contract for one of the larger companies.

To give you an idea....ive got 2 different forklift licences, recently lapsed door-badge, first aid, fire marshall certs, M.O.D. contractors security clearance allowing me to work on military bases, experience in multiple industries, pub management, logistics, tyre fitting, fencing n construction, being a chef etc etc and I struggle to find a job unless its agency, my sister has 11 GCSE`s A-B grade, 5 A-levels and a Psychology degree and can only find agency work also, job market is getting ridiculous and every industry is now so bogged down with immigrant workers willing to work for less that is is getting pretty much impossible to find a job

Out of all the jobs on the jobcentre search thing within 15miles of my postcode there are 2359 jobs and only 189 of them are NOT agency or xero hours contracts, out of those 189 i am suited/qualified to do none of those
 
I run temp contractors through my company as well, in Holland loads of companies use agents because once you hire someone you have to honor that contract or go to court to cancel it. After 3 years you become permanent in Holland and no matter what the employer wants to do they have to go through a court procedure to get rid of you. Normally about 3-4 months. So companies go in for temps, that's due to Govt regulations. It's weird, here they are relaxing rights for employees in 2014, so that employers can actually give more people jobs without the threat of the liability bankrupting you if your business is not going well and you need to downsize. Companies will get to the 2 year makr and et employees go, just so they can hire someone new and not have the liability of having the permanent employee. This is really a regulation issue.

Unfortunately in economic climates like today temp work seems to be the preferred method of doing things. A mix of regulation issues and employers not having enough work for people. Some of the agents really do take the piss, it use to be that you got paid a decent wage for temping due to the fact that is was just that, temping.

Ultimately the more output and productivity, the better off your economy and people will be, however it's acheiving that without taking money out of the super rich peoples pocket that the governments seem to have a problem with.
 
Well guys, 41 yrs old here. Worked every day of my life until recently. Put myself through uni (graduated at 31 doing 24 hrs a week uni while also holding a 40 hr full time job) before moving to a new job 5 yrs back. Was sweet (but hard work, my record was a 105 hr week) until my boss (good man) was made redundant and I got a new manager who was an ex-military twat.
The bullshit warnings started straight away. I finally left before I was forced out. The written warning I got that broke the camels back was for going out with some clients on my 40th birthday (my own time, after work) and drinking 1 pint and one small Jack Daniels (which apparently put my company in disrepute!)
I haven't been able to find work since. Ironically, most jobs I go for say I am over-qualified.
However, I would rather be skint than flog my guts out for some moron wing-nut that's out to get me.
Now, I have a loan for a new business and one serious piece of motivation. I know he won't last long and one day I hope he comes asking for a job.
 
and now for something completely different!

Basically similar to what happened to me at this company, started as a agency driver, within 15 weeks was full time, within 2months after that was in the warehouse running the place due to incompetent manager that could'nt do his job, re-fitted the office, sorted the fleet and offices and staff out, got the place running smoothly, themn manager was moved to another depot so me an a colleague ran the depot for 9 months without a manager,depot was then 2nd most efficient in the company, kept being promised supervisor job n pay raise, then they hired a new manager that was an alcoholic, had no interest in learning his job and was stealing and fiddling the books, had a fall out with him because i wouldnt cover his ineptitude so he chucked me bk out on the road as a driver then he was sacked for theft n fiddling the books and then they hired a supervisor an manager (no experience or ability) who since then have steadily ran the place into the ground and depot has gone back to last place in the company, vehicles are all naged up n look a state, stuff going missing hand over fist etc etc
