I'm a Christian, Sign Language Interpreter, Lecturer and PhD candidate, perpetually on the search for good gluten free cake! 🤷🏻‍♀️🎂 Views my own.

be closed. Except you've closed both streams. I'd like to speak to a human concerning this! Please.

[Cheryl @ChezJane]

@UberEats your customer service is awful. I cannot speak to a human. I order a delivery worth over £40 yesterday, which I never recieved. I have gone through your own procedure only to be told the matter was being handled in a different conversation stream and so this one would

[Cheryl @ChezJane]

@GavCalver Do you know who created it? Thanks 🙂

[Cheryl @ChezJane]

One of the driving forces behind doing a PhD. was the feeling that I wasn't challenging myself & was often bored...

Oh! How I now long to have nothing to do 🙈😂.

@SelinaJBSL @ThePhDPlace My immediate response to this was, nope. 😂. Now, however, having just met with my advisory team, who are much wiser than I am, I'd have to say it is going well... Apparently 😂🙈🤎.

[Cheryl @ChezJane]

My brain: That paragraph sounds amazing! Can't believe we wrote that. We've totally got this thesis in the bag!!! 🥳.
My brain, approx 45 seconds later: This whole chapter makes no sense. It's completely pointless. We are garbage & will never finish.

@ThePhDPlace It's actually vital that I get up and dust that one spot in the corner or my ceiling I always miss... honest it is!

[Cheryl @ChezJane]

@SelinaJBSL Hey! Thanks for thinking of me. It's moving along... slower than I would like most days 😂. Am writing my thesis now, data collected and analysed, so nowhere to hide, I just have to get it written! 🙈 How are you doing?

[Cheryl @ChezJane]

Not there yet. I still feel the regular kind of dumb! 😂

@British_Airways I did this but got an automated response from a bot 🙄

[Cheryl @ChezJane]

@British_Airways waiting
... it has been over a year since I made a simple compensation claim for a flight YOU cancelled. I have heard absolutely nothing from you and keep getting messed around when I try to chase it.

[Cheryl @ChezJane]

@British_Airways I haven't heard from anyone. Not even an automated email. I've chased it & each time I do, I'm told I cannot speak to customer relations because they don't have a helpline but my case hasn't been looked at yet & to be patience & that it's now priority. Told the same 3 times

[Cheryl @ChezJane]

Don't tell me to DM you with details because your agents just ask me to be patient. Could I wait a whole year after I'd flown to pay you? I don't think so.

[Cheryl @ChezJane]

@AmericanAir hello. Who do I contact with a concern/complaint? I was given a sealed gluten free meal on a flight from Boston to London this week. In that sealed meal was a gluten filled fig bar. So dangerous and upsetting.

My attention span when writing my thesis 🙈😂 #PhDlife @ThePhDPlace @PhDVoice

[Buitengebieden @buitengebieden]

The attention span of a puppy.. 😅

It is such a blessing that I get to share my love of musical theatre with my incredible niece. @MatildaMusical #MATILDAPOSE

RETWEET:

@ITV please add BSL/English interpreters for General Election Questions in between @RishiSunak and @Keir_Starmer on June 4th.

Subtitles is not good enough for deaf people who use BSL, understand clear.

BSL is another language but understands enough more.

[Cheryl @ChezJane]

Thanks for all the comments. It definitely helps to know it isn't just me. A PhD can be a lonely place - your comments all made it a little less lonely this week.

So, thanks. ☺️🤎.

Does anyone else find with their PhD, that they have a few days of incredible productivity...

And then nothing, for weeks?

I'm currently in the crazy productivity stage, begging my brain to keep it going this time.

Update: it lasted 2.5 days. Though, as many of you said, I might not see my coding progressing or my thesis word count growing today, but my brain is mulling.
Having the weekend 'off' physically at least. Back to it on Monday 👍🤎.

[Cheryl @ChezJane]

@LucyKoster2 Why do our brains do this? 😂
