Thjat garbegfe is all about suitability for team work - SO when I was seeking any PAYE employment after I left the services, I was also a fully registered Part time Pro musician and MU member. SO My view was an always polite statement - Unless I choose to discuss my private Interests & social activity outside Company hours they are private, between me & the Inland Revenue. They could not handle that or the fact that I had my own workshop which upset more than a few so called "businessmen" with Funny handshakes after they saw me on stage, playing for cabaret or in the Theatre pit with an orchestra. Most amusing as I never broke my word
FWIW Rather than using Cu Bracelets etc that have little or no effect on RA pains, the more positive help for sufferers of Rheumatoid arthritis are Heat Therapy treatments, and various over the counter Analgesic, Rub On Heat ointments & balms that contain Ibuprofen, such as Deep Heat (in the UK) and there must be other similar products worldwide.
Why you name yourself by the Internet name? Personally by choice I have never played mind games with anyone in my work or interests, so, have never seen the sense or necessity to code ones name for the net.
Good Point & well made. For example - Despite all the fake news - Proven historical Facts Drawings & developments now show that development of Supersonic & Hypersonic weapons & Aircraft, Electromagnetic & Plasma propulsion systems started in the last century. Only the US has tried to stifle public information like they did with WIG effect craft. . .
**People judge people on misconceptions most of the time, as they judge on what had been told to them (Gossip), and Not what they have experienced themselves.** Very true Before my wife died, we were married 41 years & she always said I was too quick to help people by passing on engineering skills, knowledge, teaching, repairing & even making parts free for people we knew whom she suspected were Laughing behind our backs.
I never saw it that way as some work I did was paid for. BUT - Five years ago a friend from Canada & his wife who attended my wife's funeral in 2007 came to see the relations in Margate, so they paid me a visit. -- They dropped proof to me by mentioning a Person for whom they knew I had laid out a complete workshop, advised on all the machinery needed & supervised all the installation as he set up a small business, -- from whom I had heard nothing since. -- Needless to say I refuse to work for nothing anymore.
My view ever since I became an agnostic at age 12 in 1949 has been, to say it is extreme arrogance to make the assumption that we are the only inhabited Planet in the universe with intelligent life forms.
IMHO - I don't deem religious important, despite being stated as agnostic on mine having been of that persuasion since the age of 12 - There is a difference between agnosticism & atheism. As to political belief - Mine is simple & based on Life & UK politics. - There are in round figures 650 MP's in the UK Parliament & just under 100 High Court Judges.-ALL less honest & trustworthy than a bucket of Slugs.
In both my careers and my main one in particular, I have always gone by the statement "rules are made for the obedience of fools & the guidance of wise men"
The two big accidents with the Max 8 are tragic indeed.and from reports the similarities appear very similar according to reports and the usual media hype. - Therefore IMHO it is premature to mouth off in ignorance on here. We should wait until it is known what actually happened and where the blame lies rather than the speculation as the conclusions of the Air Accident authorities involved.in both Accidents have yet to be made known.
