Yes - it's just that "Crisps" become "Sogs".i_b_b_o_r_g said:....store em up out the back till they'd expired and then put em out to sell. Was hoping to kill a few customers with food poisoning by crisp, but turns out the sell by / use by dates mean sweet Fanny Adams when it comes to artificially flavoured fried potato snacks

And I'm pissed because I wanted to be able to take back some of my extra hours worked today to get to the oval and see the trophy presentation. But I couldn't because she expects me to do two jobs and she is fucking useless.cantersaddick said:So I've been on temporary promotion for 3 months after my boss left. This week a new permanent boss has come in and I've returned to my previous role in the team.
She's already made it clear to me that she expects me to carry on doing everything I have been doing for the last 3 months (for 45% less pay) while she "oversees everything, leads the team and worries about the people management side of things". Because "it's great experience and exposure" for me!
I.e. you wanna do nothing all day while I do all the work and you take all the credit for it. Leave me to be doing 11 hour days all week while you knock off at 4.

No standard design for TV/DVD/etc remote controls - general layout for many is similar but critical stuff like channel up/down and volume up/down is at the same height on the remote but can be on either side - which is infuriating at least 50% of the time. Same goes for power on/off and mute buttons - at the top but opposite corners.0

The apparent pre-requsite to pronounce "99p" or "99" in KFC radio adverts as "naaaaneee naaan".
And just generally that silly "road man" street talk accent that is common place amongst today's yoof over past decade.
Future London accent will sound like they've been winded whilst inhaling helium.
Grating. I blame uber mook Tim Westwood for ushering in such silliness.12 -

Companies that book interviews in the middle of the afternoon.
Should either be first thing, lunchtime or after 4.30. Hard to keep it under the radar when you turn up to the office in a suit for the first time in weeks and try to slip out unnoticed at 3.7 -

Explain (in advance) to the interviewing company that in order to maintain discretion and not disrespect your current employer (by taking excessive time off) - that you will be coming into the interview directly from work and consequently will not be in full business attire.Croydon said:Companies that book interviews in the middle of the afternoon.

That's why I asked it as a question. If he had somewhere he could store the suit or drives to work so could leave it in the car then it might be possible.cafcdave123 said:
