Derry Alli Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 I just done an online assessment for a job I'm after and I swear to god I couldn't see any difference in the shading on the colours until I used my phone camera to take a photo of the screen (I was going to email the employer and ask wtf the question was all about). Is this a laptop screen problem? I'm confused. I can see it no bother through my phone camera. (The questionnaire has absolutely nothing to do with the job or, I would assume, the field in which the job is. A really weird set of questions tbh.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Report the employers for discrimination. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not colour blind, as proven by being able to differentiate between the two through the phone camera. Maybe they're prejudiced against folk with 10 year old lousy laptops 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Looks like that's another Head's Gone thread finished. @Cardinal Richelieu pretending that they don't always end with an absolute rammy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love them at that age, I’ve got a bubble machine, bubbles are great, also two canes and a bit of string in a loop and you can make giant bubbles 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedgecutter Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 (edited) The side of the A90 near Brechin has a mysterious "bear-like animal" according to my other half who saw it whilst driving home tonight. It supposedly walks like a bear, is about 0.5m tall and has long setter-like brown hair but is is definitely not a dog. Well miffed.

Let's be honest, that front page is obviously aimed at the elderly, many of which don't have internet access and would find a glossy pull-out particularly convenient.
