"Delivering slowly isn't more secure, it's fearful, and if you're afraid of changing a system then the system is not secure." @tobyirvine expounding the Secure Delivery view on delivering (securely) at pace. lnkd.in/dhYHSYE lnkd.in/dhNhekR
Yesterday @Halfords_uk replaced a tire on my vehicle, a service they call a "Mobile Experts appointment". The mechanic they sent attempted to torque the wheel while it was on the air-jack and sheared one of the studs. I'm still waiting for them to reach out to me...
Yeah. And still crickets from them. The mechanic did say that I could drive the vehicle with only four lug nuts in place, but given what he had just done I’m going to not follow that advice. @Halfords_uk you need to reach out to me today.

I tried reaching out to @AskWorkspace about them deciding that our family domain on Gmail appears to be in violation of their non-commercial use policy. We’re not, but okay. Where do I migrate my domain to? Any ideas?

So... how does one speak to a human @WHOOP? I lost my device a little over a month into having it, on a train of all places! I've reported the loss but who knows if I'll be returned. But - how do I either (a) replace it, or (b) cancel my account?
