I appreciate people need to take a lunch break but when you are public facing then you need to plan around that. Looking at you, Boots. Every Boots I've been in since the pandemic has fewer staff than they used to. Some seem to have had their security staff laid off too. Seem to be much more of a target for shoplifters than they already were too. Can't be arsed looking it up, but I'm guessing there was a lot of talk about modernisation, the need to cut cloth, implications that the business was losing money...then an announcement of record profits. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote Boots posts strong fourth quarter performance as owner looks to slash $1bn from costs Boots’ fourth quarter sales were up 11.7% year on year, helping push full-year sales up 12.5%, as footfall growth boosted trading in the 12 months to the end of August. It was Boots’ 10th consecutive quarter of market share growth, with gains across all main categories, according to the health & beauty retailer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"And he's sliced through that defence like Von Moltke the Elder's troops against the Austrians at Koniggratz..." "Aberdeen are searching for a new manager in the same way as James V searched for a suitable bride in the Courts of Europe*..." "And Martindale stands watching from the dugout like Raglan watching the Charge of the Light Brigade.." Perhaps there could be gainful employment in the field of sports commentary for a Qualified Historian. You never know, it might keep him off here... Spoiler *James V's first marriage was to Madeleine, the daughter of the French king. She wasn't terribly well and died, probably of TB, shortly after travelling to Scotland. The Neil Warnock of Scottish royal brides, poor lass. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boo Khaki Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Well played Google. You made an absolute mess of Chrome's UI with your 2023 update, but at least it was correctable by disabling the flag. March 2024, you put out an update that forces the 2023 revamp on your browser whether the flag is disabled or not. Great. Now you have to put up with the utterly pointless but fucking infuriating search tab in the top left whether you want it or not, and for some fucking reason you have forced a completely fucking awful font on people despite there being nothing offensive about or wrong with the previous one. Just f**k right off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
