Offbeat . . . Off Topic

I am on leave for two weeks from Monday. \ :smiley: /

Although sometimes I feel more stress when I’m on leave than when I’m at work.

Not necessarily. The BCEA stipulates that you can be off sick for up to 3 days, including Mondays and Fridays, before an employer has the right to demand a sick note. Alternatively, if you’re sick 3 or more times in a short period (8-12 weeks IIRC) they can also demand a sick note, even if each time was only 1 day each.

Still, the employer can define their own internal policies, procedures and disciplinary code, but it’s worth noting that the BCEA is there for employers to model their rules after. You can technically challenge them in court if they don’t follow the BCEA and you will win…

I had a brief encounter with a Samsung Galaxy S9.

Anyone who knows me well enough, would know why I want a purple one.

My policy is one day off sick I want a doctor’s note. That’s after years of guys being found shopping, fixing their cars and other kinds of shit.

Of course no one takes just one day. Based on a my data, Wednesday to Friday is the most popular.

I absolutely also want a purple one. I just hope the Note 9 later the year also has a purple variant.

Do we have a general gaming chat thread yet?

Nope you can go make one!

In my opinion you should create a thread about the thing you want to discuss. Instead of having one thread to discuss many things.

It’s Sunday and Arkham Knight finally finished the download.

I purchased a Steam key through a local retailer and had to download 50GBs worth of game.

I bought this as part of my B-day gifts to myself. I only intend to start playing it on my B-day.
Waiting on my rechargeable battery pack I ordered about a week ago. I want to play this game using a controller.

When’s your birthday?

I loved Arkham Knight. I found myself doing as much as I could in the game. I hope you enjoy it too.

Thursday.

Yeah - there were many complaints regarding its performance on PC, though, it ran without issue for my brother, as he told me. Mind you, his PC is a beast compared to mine: a modest medium-high settings @ 1080p rig.

Watched gameplay of pre-fix and post-fix (for my system), and it looks promising.
