Update: I had asked HR if I would be working the 8 hours and said I was not used to this length of trial shift. Hr replied in loose language with what I would be doing, which further lead to me believing that I would be working anywhere between 2 to 4 hours.
I brought this up onsite to management nearing the 4 hour mark, showed him the email and he called HR to then confirm verbally that I would need to work the full 8 hours unpaid to get the job.
I pointed out how this was legally grey and left.
Other bits I did not like were: through the online training session I did on their computer. Forced me to agree to fingerprint scanning which luckily I only sign an agreement and never actually had to scan my prints.
Also on the online training, they stipulate that any sign in issues would encure fees to the employee due to admin work, these fees would equate to an hours pay.
HR lead bor the same last name as the company.
The onsite manager made anti communist remarks. Also when I said “nice to meet you John” his reply, "you won’t be saying that later.
Had a comrade help me write a speech for my candidacy meeting (running in local election) I sent him my docs and he did some fast frantic typing, read out a speech, then exclaimed proudly that he ran my docs through chatgpt 😭
Activism(´・ω・`)
It would be good to be back in work asap, having a gap in employment been very detrimental for my employability. Getting far few interviews than before for lower level jobs.
So I need a gap filler. I have sent an email back to Hr asking for confirmation, my hope is that they are reasonable and legally savvy enough to give me an actual trail. I am however worried that with that confrontation they may choice to drop the offer.
But beyond that, their pension scheme, clocking in and even promotions (pay increases) seem to sign that they are a company that want to pay as little as possible.
I did a trial at my last job, took an hour where they had me soldering an old busted PCB and filling paperwork for employment, proof of address, banking details etc etc, which I was happy to do. And this current place that demands physical labour for the role, I’m slim built and assumed they’d see if I could lift and move stock, or use a till, communicate with customers, all this can be condensed down to an hour really and I would happily do that. Free labour though, the company smells rotten.
My mistake, trial shift.
Its so transparent, pro war propaganda is on British TV and in the news. Trying to ready everyone for all the burden that will be placed on the working class.
I was running only arch on my surface pro 7 and my amd desktop, then last week after an update it seemed gnome and Linux surface kernel weren’t playing nice and had bricked the install. I have switch the laptop to Debian but I tend to stick with arch, like op as I am used to it, I now run Debian as it is known to be stable.
I would love to find a new distro but for me its the sunk cost fallacy, I have put so much time into learning arch and to repeat all that - this new distro would need to offer something wildly different.
We have Affinity at home:

Tailscale is a mesh network so all device that are logged in can connect to each other. Then with mullvad we are able to use them as an exit node.
I would suggest looking up tailscales docs, its not massively complicated but I wouldn’t do the process justice.
But the short of it: signup with tailscale. Add tailscales software to each device. Then from tailscales admin panel go to setting, VPN, mullvad, setup payment then add up to 5 devices to use mullvad as an exit node.
Tailscale + mullvad integration works great if you want port forwarding and at about the same price as mullvad VPN.

This one always goes hard
Plenty of big flash points at current. I think we are seeing capitalism in disrepair, similar to 1920 Europe, world powers are rebalancing and competing for the now very limited resources. The working class are taking the brunt of the hardship and seek real change, and when trump can’t make good on those promises we will see a real struggle.
Good luck out there comrade.
“Trust no one - not even yourself”
My dad told me this while going through a divorce. He was also going through a criminal trial due to his deviance.
Its one thing that stuck with me and I wish it didn’t.
Another one is from Lenin: " ‘There Are Decades Where Nothing Happens’ and ‘Weeks Where Decades Happen’ "
As a kid religion seemed like make believe, still I followed it and thought of myself as Catholics into early adult hood. Eventually I just started referring to myself as an atheist.
