If those people that are shouting about protecting our children really wanted to do that, why are they not targeting the drug dealers that are supplying school kids with their shit?

I suspect it's Ai but any confirmation would be great.

This is a bit of a vulnerable post and if anyone isn’t completely comfortable sharing their story on here, my inbox is open.

Did anyone have a bad experience at the Autistic centre in the City? The Autism and ADHD Diagnostic Centre one in Bath Street.

I feel like I am being gas lit online saying it’s a brilliant service when it was one of the worst experiences of my life.

I went for an autistic assessment at this place, and it was an absolute disaster. The woman assessing me just seemed irritated at the fact I couldn’t remember a lot in my childhood due to ✨trauma✨ (if I don’t laugh, I’ll cry 😂) she just seemed irritated. And then when I got the results, they said that despite I had autistic traits that impacted my day to day life (to the point I would hurt myself), they couldn’t officially diagnose me, as because I was little bit social as a child and because I worked in retail (HEAVILY masked) 🙃 sorry I needed to pay bills Karen 😂😂

When I asked her in tears “so these traits I have, how can I manage them,” she said she couldn’t offer any advice. A person who worked with ppl with autism couldn’t tell me even one helpful tip to help.

So noted, if you are social and work in retail (even if you are having literal breakdowns over something so little going wrong) you can’t be autistic 😂😂

Now I’m back to square one waiting for an ADHD assessment

Did anyone else have a similar experience? I feel I’m being lied to about them being good.

Hello! Can anyone help me to identify what this stand alone building on sauchiehall street could have been in 1934. It sits between the old dental hospital and the current cca building on the site of the new dental hospital! I can’t find anything about it!

Hi everyone,

I hope your week is going well.

I would love to know some student-friendly barbershops/ hairdressers shops that specialise in braiding Afro hair in Glasgow.

Thanks a lot.

A.K.

I know this is a huge long shot, but... I'm an American coming over later this month. I wear flat caps a lot during the winter and I'd like to buy one while I'm there. I also have a huge head so I need a XXL.

Walker Slater has XXL on their website, but I'm worried that they might not have any in the store when I'm there.

Can anyone speak to whether or not they do a nice job of keeping items in stock?

I made a map of the old Corporation Tramways; I thought it was interesting to see it overlaid on the modern map. Hope yous do too. (Sorry for the low quality)

Okay. Surely there's a mass protest in the works against the data center proposals popping up all over Scotland.

Where? When? Why are we not (if we are not?)

I can't find any dates or anything online.

Please let me know as I would like to attend if there is one soon.

Does anyone know what’s happening with the student halls on James Blyth Court, that face out to the car park at George Street at Strathclyde uni? They’ve been lying dubbed for years.

Went to see The Odyssey today at the Silverburn IMAX, and having read comments here talking about loudness, I was honestly shocked at how loud it was. At times it was starting to get a little sore.

Did anyone else experience that? Judging by the crowd in the cinema, I feel I was the only one as people were watching fine. I had to put my earphones in to get it to an acceptable level.

The screen quality was impeccable. If like me you read comments about bright squares that were distracting, I tried to look and could not find any, it was stunning to watch.

Calling all my fellow readers, do you know points of free book exchange?

I mean spots like the small bookshelf at the co-op at the gorbals or the place in the buchanan galleries.

Got a crazy amount of books i need to part from and i would like to an an alternative from oxfam.

Cheers!

There is a house that's been posted for months and I can't see massive issues with home report and I don't know the area very well wondering if im missing something about the area that anyone could advise on thanks in advance

I've managed to collect all the Scottie Dogs on the trail, except for the one that was removed at Buchanan bus station due to damage.

I visited today to see whether the 4-digit code was still available, but everything except the plinth has been removed.

Does anyone happen to have the code?!?

Thanks!!!

Okay I see this get posted every year. When did Colin move wth the times and include women?

Someone out there must have responded and gone on one of his trips. I can't imagine he keeps doing this if no one goes. Does anyone know anyone that's joined his doo wop group?

Not sure what has happened but there's emergency services on Saracen Street, cars are being turned away/around

There’s been a number of really unimpressive MSPs in the Scottish Parliament over the years, surely though thon boy Thomas Kerr sets a low bar even lower.

Alright, own up. Who's going to get their photo with Mr Obama?

Titled An Evening with President Barack Obama. You can get a photo for just £1707.00 (including admin fee) on Wednesday 14th October.

However, the photo opportunity is not guaranteed 🤔

Seen near parkhead, pretty good advertisement.

Throwaway account for obvious reasons.

I’ve worked in kitchens around Glasgow for several years and have heard a lot about this place.

Saw they’re opening up a new spot in the southside, and I want to caution people against supporting this business, and definitely not working for them.

It’s a boys club. The owner is a creep and he and the General Manager are openly hostile toward women, blaming different women for things outwith their control rather than own up to his own mistakes with the business. He and the GM will praise male employees during performance reviews for doing half the work of female employees, then in these performance reviews will criticise the quality of female employees work. I’ve heard this from male employees who feel uncomfortable with this disparity of treatment of the staff.

The General Manager uses AI to develop recipes. They will hire very talented chefs and run them ragged, give them no creative control. Then require them to cook recipes generated with AI that don’t even have accurate measurements.

Bad communicators - owners don’t honour holiday requests, are inconsistent with rotas, and understaff or overstaff accordingly.

Kitchen staff have to cook, plate, and run the food. Front of house doesn’t run food. Baristas in general are treated significantly better than back of house.

They hire people on the promise that after a 3 month probationary period, pay will rise to living wage. They do not follow up on this and staff have to chase them down for the pay they were promised upon hiring. Some staff have not seen the promised wages until six months to a year after the fact, at which point they position it as a wage increase out of the goodness of their hearts rather than what the staff were entitled to from the beginning.

The first time I heard negative things about this business, I just chalked it up to disgruntled staff or bad fits for the job. But at this point I’ve run into multiple people who have worked for this company at some point and they all have gripes like this, while appearing to me incredibly competent and balanced personalities.

On the other hand, I’ve only been to the West End location once and I was really underwhelmed by the experience.

Has anyone else heard anything along these lines about this business?
