  • I live in one of these as a kid for over 15 years. The main issue I had was that you can hear EVERYTHING. We had an upstairs neighbour with a very active bedroom life and it was so embarrassing. If you do buy one of these properties then sound proofing all the way my friend. by BrandyWilson (Fri 21st Feb 2020 10:19am)
  • Hallmark hotel in the city is laying off people as well. Gave them 2 hours to decide to take unpaid leave or early redundancy. It’s disgusting. by BrandyWilson (Fri 20th Mar 2020 7:14am)
  • Sorry but I don’t understand. You want me to book a room in the hotel to support the staff? My One booking will save the jobs of many? I didn’t realise it was that simple. Sadly I wouldn’t even be accepted into a hotel because I’m working with vulnerable people who are currently in isolation due to Covid-19. Maybe you should use that excellent advice and do this yourself? 🙂 by BrandyWilson (Sat 21st Mar 2020 10:39am)
  • Could you link the research you read please, would be interesting if this is correct but would need to check the source. Thanks. by BrandyWilson (Mon 8th Jun 2020 11:44am)
  • What a bunch of fannies by BrandyWilson (Thu 25th Jun 2020 7:17pm)
  • But if a rant but I’ve lost all faith in giving people be if it of the doubt. It’s sickening as a nurse to watch all these fucking morons do this while myself, colleagues and thousands of other healthcare and social care workers didn’t have a fucking choice to go back to work. We didn’t get a choice to go furlough because in situations like this where our jobs are a necessity to make sure cunts like this stay alive. Some of us couldn’t even go home to see our family due to risk of exposing them. When your neighbour sarcastically goes ‘oh off to work again?’. Going to work in fear because of the scare tactics of the media, the fake shite on Facebook and the actual lack of PPE equipment. So when everything goes ‘back to normal’ and you see one of us about with our faces tripping us. We’ve not a break, a holiday or a fucking luxury. People like this has drained our empathy. Times like this I wish I did believe in a higher power, one that would smite their fucking arses. Rant. Over. by BrandyWilson (Fri 26th Jun 2020 12:14am)
  • I’ve been working through this and even when it said you must wear a face mask, buses letting people on without them. Lost my rag a few days ago as there were people sitting on the closed off seats as well and nothing was done. Bus driver told someone they can only recommend people to wear masks but I don’t think they can forbid someone going on without one. Not sure of the legal implications. 🧐 by BrandyWilson (Mon 29th Jun 2020 3:51pm)
  • Hi there, I would love to help you out. I’m in the south side. DM me if you are still looking for people 🙂 by BrandyWilson (Wed 1st Jul 2020 10:02am)
  • Thanks, I’ll give it a go by BrandyWilson (Mon 13th Jul 2020 10:07pm)
  • I need to do something, I’ve only realised I’ve been on a dark path for a while and I’ve gotten so used to it it’s became normal. I’ve heard running is great so I really want to give it a ago. Thanks for taking the time to reply. by BrandyWilson (Tue 14th Jul 2020 1:07am)
  • Thanks, I’ll check him out by BrandyWilson (Tue 14th Jul 2020 3:18pm)
  • Awesome by BrandyWilson (Wed 14th Oct 2020 7:36am)
  • And this is why I don’t want to be a nurse anymore. Tired of people being cunts like this. I have lost my passion due to people like this. Like even at work speaking to some people and they say to your face that they are going to friends or family for Christmas, and as a nurse I’m bound to do my job to the best of my ability, wether these people are the most selfish assholes or not. Rant over. by BrandyWilson (Fri 30th Oct 2020 9:38pm)
  • Thank you. 🙂 by BrandyWilson (Fri 30th Oct 2020 9:48pm)
  • I really hope it isn’t a NHS worker, that would make me even more angry. If it is I hope they lose their job, if they don’t care about following procedure then I sure wouldn’t trust them as a work colleague. Like don’t get me wrong I’m sure yourself as a teacher as well you will get in general an average amount of ignorance and stupidity. But COVID has just increased that to maddening numbers. It’s the logic of it’s not on me because I don’t see it, same why mental health issues have taken so long to be taken seriously. Nurses numbers have went down the past three years if not more and I know there has been a shortage of teachers throughout my life. We have really thankless jobs my friend, but the point is we don’t want to be patted on the back- we just want people to wear a mask and follow the guidelines. I hope you are doing alright as well. by BrandyWilson (Fri 30th Oct 2020 10:08pm)
  • That’s nice to hear about your dad. The beatson is a great place. All the best to you and your dad. by BrandyWilson (Fri 30th Oct 2020 10:34pm)
  • I agree. by BrandyWilson (Fri 30th Oct 2020 11:34pm)
  • Thanks, means a lot🙂 by BrandyWilson (Sat 31st Oct 2020 1:34am)
  • It’s people like you I wish I could slap. We believe in the COVID ‘stuff’ because it’s real. We believe in science. How dare you guilt trip anyone into feeling guilty about doing the correct procedure ESPECIALLY at Christmas time. People are frightened? They should be. II’ve been a respiratory nurse for 12 years. Do you know what it’s like to not be able to breathe anymore? To have to focus any energy you have into breathing. You can’t eat, you can’t get up to take a piss, nothing. We use Machines that force air into people lungs because they can’t do it on their own. It’s a horrible way to die and due to COVID the number of people I’ve seen pass away has risen. You guilt trip us? You should be the one feeling disgusted at yourself. It’s people with your attitude that I sit on night shift watching someone’s loved ones pass away and you have the audacity to say this doesn’t exist?! You are the cause why the restrictions continue to be in place, god forbid you catch it and when you are struggling to breathe maybe you can think to yourself that I shouldn’t be such a deluded piece of shit. by BrandyWilson (Sat 31st Oct 2020 1:49am)
  • You know people who work in care homes which means what you/they say is true? Really? You’re using that logic to prove your point? Embarrassing. You know what’s sad? You stating that these restrictions that have been put in place to assist the NHS are having a complete negative impact. No matter what the government or NHS chooses to do it will always have positive and negatives. Say they’re was no COVID-19 and we go back to ‘normal’, we’ll still have to the NHS flooded on football match day when patients have drank too much and gotten themselves into bother, we’ll still have people coming in with issues that could be seen by a GP. There will always be illnesses not diagnosed. GPS and nurse sin the community are doing welfare checks to the most vulnerable, we as the health care progression are doing what we can to assist the most vulnerable people. You are guilt tripping, that’s what you are exactly doing. You are throwing out issues and seeing what sticks. You mention about my pay, my pension and how thousands of people are going to lose their jobs. Then it goes onto politics and independence and then onto bills and council tax. I’ll just remind you that this post is about people breaking restrictions and putting people at risk, if you are going to want to discuss something at least keep it on point. I write COVID in capitals because that’s how it’s typed according to the NICE guidelines, which as a nurse I use. “Never argue with an idiot, they will drag you down and beat you with experience”- it doesn’t matter what anyone says to you, you will keep grasping at anything to try prove your point. by BrandyWilson (Sat 31st Oct 2020 2:04pm)
  • Well done mate, looks epic by BrandyWilson (Thu 19th Nov 2020 11:13pm)

  • Thanks, appreciated. by BrandyWilson (Thu 17th Dec 2020 8:10pm)
  • I’d be sending this to the council, newspapers the lot. Absolutely disgusting. You and your colleagues have done an asking job. by BrandyWilson (Fri 26th Mar 2021 11:50am)
  • Good job guys by BrandyWilson (Sat 3rd Apr 2021 4:25pm)
  • I hope he is alright and shows up. by BrandyWilson (Tue 20th Apr 2021 3:03am)
  • Cheers I’ll give them a bash by BrandyWilson (Sat 19th Jun 2021 2:39pm)
  • Tha is I’ll have a look 🙂 by BrandyWilson (Sat 19th Jun 2021 5:22pm)
  • I went to Naz brow and lash studio. People were raving on about it so went. I spent a year like growing them back ad they were becoming so thin it was a joke. It sure if you guys are the same but one brow grows in so much quicker than the other, so for like a whole covid year I’ve tried to grow them back and it’s been so slow. I went back and said just to tidy them up while they grow in and she put them right back to being thin as f¥$|, so I wasn’t happy and won’t be going back there. by BrandyWilson (Sat 19th Jun 2021 10:04pm)

  • It’s bloody July…..July!!!!…. Wait… You’re months early…. And want to have people who are alone over for dinner…. Are you going to make them the dinner? 😧 You need the extra months to prepare where you will hide the bodies…. I’m onto you lad. by BrandyWilson (Tue 6th Jul 2021 5:32am)
  • Seconding Stefanos, love it. by BrandyWilson (Wed 7th Jul 2021 7:10am)
  • Hey I might also contact the police as the river is a prime place for suicides. Don’t mean to sound morbid but done a lot of prevention as a nurse. I would defo hand it in to the police in case it is something like this and they can start a search as early as possible if need be. by BrandyWilson (Sun 11th Jul 2021 5:42am)
  • Nah don’t worry dude you were doing a kind thing. I’ve done a lot of work in this field so that’s like my own instinct would be to say to the police about it. by BrandyWilson (Sun 11th Jul 2021 6:07am)
  • Good luck, let us know how you got on. by BrandyWilson (Sun 11th Jul 2021 6:12am)
  • You know I will try best chippy this weekend, . Ordered a Stefanos at the weekend there and it was burnt to shit. Just eat there was 3 or 4 poor reviews that same night. by BrandyWilson (Thu 15th Jul 2021 12:55am)
  • Second this. by BrandyWilson (Thu 15th Jul 2021 4:07pm)
  • There is a place called daisy that looks like it’s been written by Disney, just off battlefield road. They do butcher steak slice for their rolls. by BrandyWilson (Thu 15th Jul 2021 4:11pm)
  • 4 Holmlea road, Maguires Dairy. Got I was well off with the name. Checked on google for ya 😁 by BrandyWilson (Thu 15th Jul 2021 5:02pm)
  • I mentioned it was good previous post about pizza but last order they’ve let me down badly and burnt three slices of my pizza and was stone cold when I got it. I think they take on more orders then they can handle at times. by BrandyWilson (Fri 16th Jul 2021 8:13pm)
  • I would be interested in what the bus service has to say about this. So they are allowed to let someone on the bus and continue to do so after their admittance to having covid, potentially spreading to others? What about the elderly who might not simply be able to get off the bus in that case? I’m sorry people suck OP and you had to do that in order to protect yourself. I’m actually intrusive do what the bus service says about this. by BrandyWilson (Tue 20th Jul 2021 5:28pm)
  • Hi, Late 30’s f here. I go to a lot of gigs and do things in small groups. Send me a message if you want to chat. by BrandyWilson (Sun 25th Jul 2021 1:57am)
  • I will avoid them. Heard so many bad things about them. by BrandyWilson (Fri 20th Aug 2021 3:10pm)
  • I'll have a look into them, thanks! by BrandyWilson (Fri 20th Aug 2021 6:27pm)
  • Who are you to tell me what to do? I'm a nurse that has to travel alot of places to ensure people who are ill are taken care of. Peoples moms,dad, grans and grandpas - but it's better to 'tell' someone on reddit to use a bike rather than to actually go out in the world and do something legitimate like protesting or assisting political agendas to help with climate change. But from looking at your comments and posts it's obvious you like to stay and comment on Reddit rather than actually doing something to make a difference to the world. Commenting on random people to assist with climate change when the biggest culprits are multibillion companies. Maybe before spewing anything you should actually research and stop assuming a 'bike' would be useful for someone when you have zero clue into their lives and their reasonings for it. Get off your ass and do something about climate change. by BrandyWilson (Fri 20th Aug 2021 6:27pm)
  • Im defo not paying 8k for a first car. It's literally for work as I need to travel quite a bit for it now and public transport ain't cutting it. by BrandyWilson (Fri 20th Aug 2021 6:31pm)
  • I’ll have a look, thanks! by BrandyWilson (Fri 20th Aug 2021 6:52pm)

  • Hey OP, I’m a nurse and there isn’t a specific way to report someone to get vaccinated (yet) as it’s personal choice. I would do as someone else suggested and complain to the council/company she is employed to as she is purposely verbalising wrong information to vulnerable people. I’d be heart broken if someone listened to their information, choose to not get vaccinated and ended up really ill. 😞 by BrandyWilson (Fri 27th Aug 2021 12:09pm)
  • You are 100% doing the right thing. I don’t know too much I’m afraid about self employment and who to report but I hope you get somewhere with it. All the best. by BrandyWilson (Fri 27th Aug 2021 12:16pm)
  • It’s not just TRNSMT, a lot of people in my college are saying the pubs about town increase their drink prices on the weekend. They need to just accept that the money is lost, your off your rocker if you pay £8.50 for a vodka and red bull. by BrandyWilson (Thu 9th Sep 2021 12:03pm)
  • I was taking in relation to increasing prices due to covid and lost earnings during this and not common place ‘student nights’. by BrandyWilson (Thu 9th Sep 2021 3:27pm)
  • The point of my last message was to clarify…….wow….. you must be popular 😂 by BrandyWilson (Thu 9th Sep 2021 4:27pm)
  • I’ve worked with drugs and alcohol, cocaine and Valium use are really predominant in Scotland. We’ve been in a drug pandemic for a long time. My friends as well would have a bit of coke on the weekend and go about doing their 9-5. To be honest I’ve not been on a proper night out since covid hit but i know a lot of people want to get back to ‘normal’ and going through a phase of catching up on what they missed on. There is cocaine anonymous which people can go to as well as turning point. I’m not sure about meetings because of restrictions. I’m all in favour of legalising like a lot of other have mentioned as from first hand experience our drugs services do need an overhaul. Also a lot of professions like chefs, lawyers are rife with cocaine use (this is from my experience, don’t be a dick and mention all professions will have it. I’m aware of this I’m talking on what I’ve seen working with drugs and alcohol misuse). I would also like to see a massive influx of mental health services (wouldn’t we all), a lot of people self medicate because they aren’t getting the help they need. As much as I think overall there is more acceptance of mental health, service wise the NHS haven’t caught up to it. It can take more than 16 weeks to get a first appointment. Im just rambling now sorry, I’m sorry for anyone who has seen or experienced someone getting hurt through drug or alcohol abuse. by BrandyWilson (Sat 11th Sep 2021 1:03pm)
  • I’m so sorry for your loss. 😞 by BrandyWilson (Sun 12th Sep 2021 3:17pm)
  • Nice work! by BrandyWilson (Mon 13th Sep 2021 9:51pm)
  • I’m sorry that happened to you. by BrandyWilson (Mon 29th Nov 2021 11:53am)
  • Wit. I’m studying full-time. Do college without having to work so I get a break from working-studying 7 days a week. by BrandyWilson (Mon 29th Nov 2021 11:52am)
  • I’m don’t know what the NUS rep is? by BrandyWilson (Mon 29th Nov 2021 11:59am)
  • I’m a nurse, worked through the pandemic. My partner can’t work right now so I need to work full- time to get the basic needs met without getting into debt. College hasn’t been supportive at all, they want me to come in 5 days a week with no exceptions. I said I need to work but they don’t care. I finished my first term with an overall of 97%, the work is fine but I need to earn as well. I’ll probably have to quit because they can’t accommodate. by BrandyWilson (Mon 29th Nov 2021 11:57am)
  • I contacted the student association but they didn’t get back to me, left a few messages then gave up. I’ll try NUS. Thanks 🙏 by BrandyWilson (Mon 29th Nov 2021 12:24pm)
  • Aye by BrandyWilson (Mon 29th Nov 2021 12:24pm)
  • HND. by BrandyWilson (Tue 30th Nov 2021 5:18am)
  • I’m really sorry to hear that, I hope you are feeling better. by BrandyWilson (Tue 30th Nov 2021 5:18am)
  • I feel like it’s a shit situation. I know how to drive but don’t have a car. Bus route really accessible where I live but then the buses aren’t regular as much anymore, so like OP you are left wondering what’s going on. I would love Glasgow to have a bigger subway system. by BrandyWilson (Mon 6th Dec 2021 8:23am)
  • I wish I had lecturers are understanding about it. It’s not like I am behind. Someone me ruined on here that HND course attendance isn’t affected or something? If it’s not I might just email them saying I need to work and that’s the end of it. by BrandyWilson (Mon 6th Dec 2021 12:39pm)
  • Love how people are making this political. The people in the pub and the police were in poor performance. What are the actions of all these individuals have to do with Sturgeon? I’m a nurse working in COVID and it’s really sad to see people having zero common sense. What makes it worse is the police did nothing to de- escalate the issue. This whole situation could have been handled better. by BrandyWilson (Mon 3rd Jan 2022 6:56pm)
  • Morning. Very calming picture - nice work. 👍 by BrandyWilson (Mon 31st Jan 2022 8:51am)
  • If you are a carer, beware of any care home owned by the Poddar family. Disgustingly ran care homes. by BrandyWilson (Tue 1st Feb 2022 1:40pm)
  • They had to change their business name twice because it was so bad. Care inspectorate shut a lot of them down so they just made a new ‘business’ because their name was so tarnished. One of the managers was a nurse who got struck off for stealing controlled medication. The only deputy manager I liked left because they didn’t train her, put her on 5 days x 14 hour days. Poor woman’s hair was falling out. My mother was palliative care and they wouldn’t give out the money to get her equipment to wash her hair. The deputy went and bought my mum it from her own pocket. Oh and made false accusations regarding an older manager, she took them to court and won. It is also alone for people to read if you look for it. They are legitimately disgusting human beings 🙂 by BrandyWilson (Tue 1st Feb 2022 5:24pm)
  • No worries, just be safe and be cautious. They are not good people. by BrandyWilson (Tue 1st Feb 2022 5:49pm)
  • I wouldn’t put it past them. You just need to look at their history to see their intentions are not for the people they look after. It’s to take as much money no matter what the cost. by BrandyWilson (Wed 2nd Feb 2022 7:39am)
