  1. Government are being surprisingly firm on this all of a sudden, I’m wondering what their angle is?
  2. How do you cancel an appointment at the sperm bank? Do you ring up and say you can’t cum?
  3. I hope TalkSport managed to stop their latest “it’s time to get excited, deal is done” story.
  4. I was playing Grand Theft Auto the other night and they have some great radio programmes for when you’re driving around. One was hilariously accurate, it was some right wing nutter who’d called in to say how pleased he was that foreigners no longer wanted to live in America. All it took was for them to destroy the country to make it so unappealing but it was worth it to stop them coming.
  5. I’m wondering if they didn’t formally state your probation was being extended then it is assumed to be passed... someone else will know better than me. If you’re a fully fledged employee then things change with regards to redundancy, they have to offer any other available jobs, training, period of consultation etc.
  6. He’s been out of work for 18 months hasn’t he? Probably took this as getting desperate for a new job.
  7. Russia also apparently have a vaccine close to approval, but there’s a lot of scepticism about it.
  8. That’s more of a family special occasion kind of venue.
  9. Have some bullet points written down on paper on the desk so if your mind goes blank you can get back on track somewhere. Also, in PowerPoint you can add notes that only you can see to keep flowing nicely. Finally, keep going, if you ask a question to the group it’ll probably go silent so only pause briefly then keep going and avoid an awkward silence.
  10. 3rd goal about 45 seconds into the second half
  11. Was it formally extended in writing? Sounds like they’ve cut corners.
  12. Hopefully Spain get control back, asking for us to send shit loads of tourists over won’t help
  13. Extending the probation period due to Covid seems a bit off, how long was it initially and how much was left? I’d be tempted to look into if they acted fairly. Did they give you a reason for not passing the probation? Was it performance related?
  14. Yep. Something doesn’t add up, I certainly don’t think it’ll be like when Chelsea or Man City got new owners. 1) FFP and 2) If the Arabs wanted to get rid of several hundred million pounds and not bothered about a return they wouldn’t be partnering up with investment companies.
  15. I agree, they did it a while back, bouncing between the divisions without spending a fortune.
  16. Genie

    Mask Watch!

    One of the comments on the twitter post was along the lines of “**** em I’m not wearing one”, then someone replied, then the first person said she had it in March so didn’t care. Sums your point perfectly. People are selfish, which is something that has been heavily underlined this past year.
  17. I only have fish from the chip shop when I’m near the seaside. Takes so much nicer.
  18. Certainly feels like wave 2 could be just over the horizon. A kick up was always inevitable with easing of restrictions, hopefully they plateau out.
  19. Someone should have a quiet word in his ear
  20. I put this in the virus thread but it probably belongs here Postcode checker for the eat out scheme now live. Link I noticed none of the McDonald’s/KFC/Burger King/Pizza outlets by me have signed up. A couple of the nicer restaurants have so will probably use it at least once.
  21. They’ve got no good players and very little money, I can’t see it going well.
  22. At least the media have stopped saying “it’s done” every 5 minutes now.
  23. Maybe Small Heath increased his salary after he turned them down.
