so, when did you actually start attending work?
It is every friday, but according to a few others they haven't been paid for the week we did at another place. Only one female was paid for that week we did. As for training, everyone hasn't been paid for it just yet. I understand they couldn't pay me for that week I started on, but it will be 2 weeks tomorrow so I have no clue. My manager said we'll be paid and we shouldn't be worried.
I don’t know if girls were being rude when they were asking if my bf is my sugar daddy. I’m like is it not normal for my bf to drop his lovely gf off for work?
They had both only at Heathrow. Both were set off by the Libre.@ert Sorry for all the questions. I am mentally preparing myself for the next trip (although I have nothing planned at the moment).
Was it the metal detector arch that set off the alarms or the body scanner (tube thing you stand in with your feet on the marks on the floor and your hands in the air)?
With the pump, I avoid the body scanner and that conversation can be awkward enough at times.
I started working on Thursday 26th-Friday 27th September, then they planned to train all the new staff for the new restaurant which I attended from Thursday 3rd October until now and they said they'll pay everyone even for training. The restaurant will officially open to the public on the 14th October.so, when did you actually start attending work?
Oh I did roll with it, it ended up "is your bf accepting anyone else?"Indeed it is..
But only after kissing the wife & kids beforehand...

Seriously though, just roll with some of the "banter" at work..
Above is a highlighted example of how ya deal with it?

When I left work this afternoon, my libre indicated that I was going to run high so I took into consider my walk home - my journey is around 1.5 hours by foot and also if I were to correct it, I might hypo so I didn't correct and I gave walking a chance and viola, I came home on a 5.5. Diabetes ain't fooling anyone.
I had a long chat with my beautiful mother tonight, she said dad and her want to buy another business again. Her plan was to buy a business after Christmas so we can work together as a family, put my brother and I as managers to manage the business and then in a few years, I will be able to put money together for a mortgage to buy a place with my bf. I like her thinking but I don't know if dad is willing to put up with another demanding business, he can't see very well and he'll struggle to read orders, especially now everything is done on computers.
Yes it does sound like my parents are shielding me away from life. They've always have been bosses for themselves and that's good on them for not having degrees. She said it was just her thinking, she isn't too sure yet. My mum said she wants me to carry on doing what I'm doing with training, earning my own coins and managing myself better. I mean I can't even master balancing and holding plates yet, it's a work of art. (You'd have to beat me to pulp to get me to go home to work in another family business, 6 years was enough. But I don't dislike the idea if my mum manages it differently. Can't stop my mummy from buying propertiesI feel you need to get to grips with standing on your own two feet, before the attempt of lifting the weight of others...
Back from my very short trip to Australia.I have missed reading everyone's posts. The major mishaps of travelling on insulin was firstly at Heathrow terminal 3 where they've never heard of a Freestyle Libre and I had to strip in a room for two women border officers had to test my libre for explosive residue. It was partly my fault as I wore a long-sleeved dress that they couldn't access my arm. Also, the other minus was that I hypoed in the heat and with jetlag 50% of the time. I usually hypo 1% of the time. I've eaten my entire supply of jellybeans. I'm rather relieved to be home in Oxford. I need some holiday insulin training.
Hi,
Just read about your new sensor.? Have you tried rebooting the phone? If you have wifi or Bluetooth switched on, try with them switched off? Just thought. If you have an account that pays for transactions via NFC? Try disabling that too..
Sometimes these devices get confused..
Hi, technology is all well and good when it is working, but it can throw a spanner in the works when it doesn't
Do have another one to replace it ?
Good ideaI am the same but decided on a long overdue separation of my professional and non-professional life.
Just getting used to my alter ego ... and responding to the name "Kim".
