Found an old forgotten clock, Citizen so a well known brand. Put in battery - the clock starts, grand. Moved the alarm hand to see if it works, expecting a beep beep or similar sound when a really loud bell goes off inside. Frightened the s*** out of me.

Why can't all applegreens in the country have the same Diesel rate?! Why's the one down in Kilkenny 4 cent cheaper a liter than the one in Gorey?

Gorey is further away, so takes more Diesel to deliver it ?

I'm expected to do the work of 4 people but only get paid about half the salary I deserve for the work of one person.

Looking up flights to go to Leeds so I can settle a date once and for all. The early morning flight would possibly be a struggle for me to get to on time, but it's only €20. The 4pm flight on the same day is over €110! :eek:

Fecking jobs! Applied for a job, didnt expect to succeed, didnt know if I even wanted it- successful except now it depends on my sick leave, but I have been ill! So now its referred to a work doc!

Now I worried about getting a job I wasnt even sure I wanted- and may still not want, but still I worry!

The fact that some mothers think its a clever idea to bring little jimmy into the library to scream his moany little bollocks off.

I woke up early this morning up with a horn on me that I could have cut diamonds with.

It would have been a shame to let it go to waste so I cracked one off but feel back asleep.

I was an hour late for work.

Do you remember the British lady who went to Spain and complained about too many Spanish people in the hotel and area? Ah it was only two weeks ago. In the tabloids (my guilty pleasure lunchtime reading ). She also got compo from Thomas Cook so maybe she is smart after all

My teammate came back from holidays in Spain and said the exact same thing! He is from Belgium and remarked the barman has no French. Why would he

It gets worse. Also complained about Spanish signs for everything. Hey I didn't moan when I went to Germany, I struggled on

I thought people like this only existed in tabloids! Ye think I'm making this up, I wish I was

She worked in a bar/restaurant in Temple Bar and had LC level languages.

Brought a parcel to be posted, as we have a lot of post that needs to be tracked, we had those pre-printed proof of postage forms.

I hate them as they have to be filled in by hand, anyway today, they took the form and queried every dam detail on it, I must not have had the right answers for them as they then, REWRITE WHAT I PUT ON THE FORM.

TATA, I never said I had legible handwriting, my mother and one of my bosses used to do this as well. Drives me mental.

Well I don't think I have a cold but I can't warm myself today, wasn't a great day weather wise but wasn't cold, but I'm freezing all day, very odd.

I have been cold to the bone for days. Headaches.
It’s either a cold on the way or holiday withdrawal symptoms.

I have a training day at work tomorrow. That's fine, but my TA is that I've never been to in-house training before, so I don't know if I need to clock in or not, and I'm too afraid to ask anyone in case it's a stupid question

New Home

It's not a stupid question! I'd say do log in, it's training but it's work, and you're not off site. At least, that's how we did it in my old place.

I was thinking that, I'll probably ask someone in the morning just to be sure, would certainly be handy to get paid for it

I'd say there's less competion around the one in Gorey so they can charge more. Supply and demand.

Why shouldn't you?! It's not as if you worked, let's say, as an accountant, and you went to a tap dance class!

I don't know about Gorey specifically, but I've noticed that all the garages in a certain area seem to have very similar prices. You'd almost be forgiven to think there's a cartel, or something. :rolleyes:

Had a hot shower as it was far too cold this morning! At least it's on within the hour.. "supposedly" so if I can last that long

Recruiters' CV guides. Across the recruitment business I've learned that in terms of CV guides and 'tips' effectively, the terms 'Do's' and 'Don'ts' can be used interchangeably.

Ah well, here we go again for another bottom-up rework.

They exist. My aunt did it when we were in Spain in the spring. I stared at her in horror.

TA for me today is the really gorgeous Bank Building is a husk this morning. I never went into it if I could help it as I hate primark but there was no denying it was a gorgeous building and right in the heart of Belfast City. I was genuinely upset watching it burn yesterday. It's such a massive loss for the city. Hopefully it'll hold up and there'll be attempts made to save the façade.
