Not really sure whether this should be in WPMOT or WMMST...
Crotchety old engineer downstairs had a go at me for forgetting my pass and knocking on the door to be let in. After going out over lunch and more than the usual amount of idiots being on the road today, I had a go right back. That's the part that pissed me off...
The part that made me smile was the comments from two colleagues upstairs when I mentioned it.
Sue: "I'd liked to have seen that."
Patrick: "Well done that man."
The particular person in question has shouted at a few people in the company for little or no reason, thrown thousands of pounds worth of equipment (due to be shipped to customers) around our workshop area with no regard to damaging the equipment or damaging the workshop and been reported several times for misconduct. No one can wait until he get's the sack.
Unfortunately I now need to take a long breather and get my heart rate under control. _________________ You start the game of life with a full pot o' luck and an empty pot o' experience. The objective is to fill the pot of experience before you empty the pot of luck.

Had that problem with my nokia...had to do a reset on the phone software to fix it. You called your provider? _________________ You start the game of life with a full pot o' luck and an empty pot o' experience. The objective is to fill the pot of experience before you empty the pot of luck.

Election shit. Am I the only one who is bored of all the crap in the papers, on the TV, on the Radio, on posters and now even on the forum. I have known for a while who would be getting my vote and no matter how hard people try I will not be swayed.
What was that?
I get a hobnob if I vote for Gordon?

Seriously having to consider letting the viffer go...
(and no, not just for comfort issues...)
Need to free up a grand in the next week or so, but still want to have a bike to ride on... might have to pick up a cheap 500cc for £500
I dunno, a bit devastated TBH... |
