    for the first time ever, i have been sent away from home.
    all the bloody way to enlgand.
    suny uxbridge has not an awful lot going for it im afraid. still the hotel is ok, at least until this morning when they failed to deliver my breakfast. at 18 quid a pop youd think theyd give it to you.
    anyway, just wondering where else people have been sent from work.

    last year I was sent to madrid and sydney.
    this year I would have gone to manila only I hadn't had the shots,
    would have gone to madrid if they hadn't thought I was going to manila.
    would have gone to conneticut for 2 months if I hadn't resigned smile.gif

    eamo - what did they send you to uxbridge for? anyway i got a job yesterday working as a network administrator for commonwealth bank and my job was(it was only a 2 day contract) checking through peoples history and checking if the sites they have visited were porn or not because their security package failed. so i was paid $40 an hour to look at pron all day(best job i have ever had).

    Sending anyone to Slough is purely sadistic, why would anyone do that? It's one of the most smelly, God-forbidden kips on this good Earth. btw I haven't been anywhere frown.gif
