On MJ, I got to a healthy BMI quite quickly and then reached BMI 20 in April last year and managed to maintain that without medication until recently! I was that BMI before I gained weight so it was easy to maintain, I had a regular fitness routine too.

However in last few months life has been really stressful, I have been struggling with work etc and have not been as active nor focused on nutrition. I am basically overweight again in terms of BMI, but as it’s a recent gain, some of that weight might be temporary/water retention. I hope the actual fat gain might not be as high as the scale suggests!

Regardless I was just wondering what my options might be in an attempt to restart Mounjaro for maintenance purposes, to help me avoid further weight gain? I have about 10kg to lose to get back to where I was although losing about 3kg would get me back under BMI 25. I haven’t ordered MJ in a year (MedExpress). However I had a stockpile that ran out in August last year. So I’m not sure, if maintenance prescriptions would be possible in my case and was wondering how pharmacies may approach this.

I’m really worried that having worked in public sector for a few years, I’d be seen as a red flag to FAANG recruiters (as government is known to be inefficient and slow.)

I’m not sure how to successfully highlight my experience to come across as more desirable/fight off any misconceptions, as I don’t personally operate in an inefficient way at work. But it’s hard to eg get across commerciality as public sector tends to be revenue saving as opposed to generating. Plus, I feel I wear loads of hats in my current job but FAANG may prefer deep knowledge in a specific domain, so it’s hard to map job roles.

I did have an interview with apple last year, but it was a more junior position and so I ended up taking a higher paid consulting role elsewhere.

I use the word “complaint” broadly, no one has formally complained about me but there is some weirdness occurring.

I work as a data scientist consultant in a really poor/low maturity team. They use Jira. There’s aspects of my work which I can’t complete without input from a (perm) MI team who store the data. So the person I report into, assigned Jira tickets to the MI team.

In tandem to this, I invited some of the MI team to meetings that interlinks with those Jira tickets for their awareness. Plus, the people I report to chase for daily updates on the Jira tickets as the MI team are a bottleneck.

Today I was “pulled up” by the MI team manager in front of the person I report into, to say someone on the team feels they are at maximum capacity, there’s tickets on Jira, plus they were invited to meetings they felt they had no input in, and can any further communication go through the manager essentially.

It feels off because I don’t feel I have don’t anything wrong, any pressure comes from the people I report to especially in regard to Jira - but it seems like I am being made to be the issue here. I did say, with the meeting invite they were free to decline and the invite asked them to forward to someone more appropriate if needed.

I played this game as a child totally oblivious to any issues within the development team.

Just got into it again recently and was surprised to find out:
- the developer studio was shut down after poor sales
- Capcom produced new versions/game without the original devs, to the extent of removing the final credits with the old studio name
- the original director of the games frequently argues with fans on social media
- he also did an interview stating there were issues within the original development team

I didn’t realise such a cheery game had drama like this and was curious as to what the issues were as it seems there’s some strong personalities involved

I’ve almost completed the game for the first time (haven’t finished it before but I played it a lot as a kid). I tried to go for 100% and have done everything else including completing all the tomes, devil gate trials, collected all other stray beads and finished all side content up to this point.

But I have totally lost patience with this race and it’s blocking me from progressing with the rest of the game, as I’m at the point of no return and have done everything else available.

Just wondering if there’s a strategy or glitch or something to help me win/skip race whilst still obtaining the stray bead.

UPDATE: thanks everyone I DID IT FIRST TRY after all your advice!! Can’t believe it! And I finally finished the rest of the game!

I have almost finished my OU course, however the path to date has been chaos! Maladministration from OU occurred.

These errors (being discreet for anonymity) were substantial and led to an upheld academic appeal.

So whilst some of the resulting issues will be rectified in the module directly impacted, ultimately it has resulted in months of unexpected and significant stress which had the knock on effect of impacting my other modules. For example I average around 90%+ in TMAs for a certain module, but my recent one got 60%. This due to silly mistakes like not running cells in the notebook before submission, but my code being correct. However due to the robust marking criteria, I scored 0/20. I feel this sort of silly error reflects how stressed and distracted I was due to the issues I had recourse to complain about, and there was a cross-module impact of my performance.

I’m not really sure how to handle this going forward bc whilst the university acknowledges they made key errors, I feel it’s sort of fallen short of addressing the wider impact. Should I put in a special circumstances form for my other impacted modules, noting the maladministration for example? I wouldn’t care as much, if it was level 1 modules but this could impact my final classification.
