Why do so many people shoplift stuff?

I've heard some wild justifications for people to think its rightfully theirs. It's not. I can appreciate its a rush to do but its still wrong.

why do some people think rape is worse than murder when rape is only sexual violence?

Ignoring the banhammer bait 'some people' and 'only sexual violence' wording. I'd put it to you that they are both terrible things and its a waste of time to be unsympathetic to anyone who experiences either one of them. But if you want an answer, people might perceive that because its trauma and shame that they have to live with, and the thing with trauma is its very hard to quantify or see but it is extremely real to them, its also trauma that can come up again and again as they try to move on and meet people.

Have you ever played red dead redemption (the first one)? Did you enjoy it?

I have, but Red Dead Redemption 2 is one of the best games of all time. So good that I don't remember much about the first one.

Do you celebrate bonfire night?

Yup - both for what it symbolises (a reminder that the government can be [close to] overthrown by a few people) and the pwetty fireworks. Though I would prefer it if firework displays were left to specialists and that access to fireworks should be more restricted - we shouldn't be having kids firing fireworks and emergency workers or neighbours giving pets heart attacks.

why do girls lie about having a boyfriend?

I can only speculate why girls 'would' lie, I don't think all girls 'do' lie. I'd guess its to prevent creepy people from hitting on them, their parents to give them a break from 'single pressure' or potentially lying to their family to protect their sexuality (be it, Bi, Lesbian or Asexual).

Should we fine shop owners who refuse to take cash?

Is employee productivity surveillance (in the case of office jobs) an ethical thing?

I think those automated, screenshots every 30 minutes to see if it's the same as the last one (and they are not in a meeting) and flags for human review if it's the same makes sense. As its not too taxing and not too surveillance heavy. But other than that I think to actively monitor people that hard is only going to piss off your workforce, likely break GDPR regulations and likely lead to a lot of false flags.

Should we force long term sick colleagues back to work?

I think employers should be able to request regular doctors health assessments in order to keep an employee on their pay role and terminate employment when that evidence isn't presented and they refuse to return to work. Generally speaking you can't force people to do anything but I think those terms are fair and would protect an organisation from any unfair dismissal charges.

That's two Q and A websites shutting down this one and askfm what do you think the reason for them shutting down is?

They take too much effort to run, admins don't get any money to run it and their users aren't grateful and constantly demand improvements or to ban people (or cause drama).

How to make a shy person become more extroverted?

Shy people just have a hard time expressing themselves. Be patient, understanding and attentive to them and they will flourish in your company... unless they are shy because they are just trying to avoid you.

How quickly did you get a job?

After Uni it took a long time. Entry level jobs are hyper competitive. But now I have a good amount of experience, its been a lot easier to find new work. I changed companies this year. I applied to 2 jobs, got offered 2 interviews but by the time the second one invited me to the interview the first one already offered me a job - big confidence boost tbh.

Question for British people: do you agree that the NHS should be discontinued in favour of private healthcare?

I don't. But I do believe that it should be audited on a Quality Assurance aspect regularly to identify efficiencies and savings. Its a galactic sized organisation, and we owe a lot to that organisation. But it should be supported both financially and operationally (and a part of that is making sure its operating at a high level).

How do you ask for a sick note?

'I feel sick, and I don't think I'm in a position to be able to work. Its company policy to seek a formal sick note to take absence, do you agree I'm sick? If so could you please provide me with a sick note?'
