Paddywhack Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 As it's a bit misogynistic, I'm going to write this in a Haiku because that makes it nicer. Female colleague sends friend request. Look through photos of her massive jugs. Vanish March 2017. They're phonies! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't you find it a bit lonely working from home? I did an entire week recently! I'd say no to your question, the trade off of being at home makes up for any isolation. Besides, such is the meetings culture at my place I'm regularly talking to people and since everyone works from home regularly you can never guarantee that the people you don't mind talking to will actually be in on a given day. In previous jobs certain colleagues would become really good and close friends and we'd be going out regularly after work. Now I'm a bit too old for that and have other goals than blowing £100-£200 a week boozing etc. Edited February 11, 2019 by Dr_Pangloss 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever I take a walk from new street to colmore row I'm always shocked at the amount of homeless people and quite frankly the 'state' of them, virtually all I see are clearly high on smack or an equivalent. I could say with confidence that virtually all of them are 'genuine'. It strikes me that it's at crisis levels in this city.

Isn't it meant to be 3 lines of 5, 7 and 5 syllables not words, unless you originally wrote it in Japanese of course and your google translate version was unaware of the rules....

Obviously I don't live in brum so I don't know the daily things that go on there but man it was bad on this visit compared to when I last came. London is a bigger city but I don't see it as much as on this weekend to brum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddywhack Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 From the stench that was steaming out of the cubical next to me, I can only conclude that my mystery colleague has been on a strict ham only diet for the last few days. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 I've been to Walsall today. That's a proper mixed bag. So many really interesting buildings around the shopping streets, lots of history if you look up above the ground floor shop fronts. A properly struggling little shopping centre complex. They've got a statue of a woman that isn't Queen Vic. For that alone, well done Walsall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went into a cubicle at work earlier and someone had shit on the seat. Not a skid mark, which would have been ridiculous on it own, but a proper faecal patty on the seat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Jimzk5 Posted February 19, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 19, 2019 (edited) Quit working yesterday, posted on here about having an essential Tremor a few months ago, essential Tremor has made my job, my career and everything I've worked for for the last 17 years impossible to do. Applied for a job at Iceland, got rejected at the first stage. Phoned agencies all over the Midlands and got nowhere. So depressed at the moment, my career taken away from me then Iceland turn me down at the first stage Edited February 19, 2019 by Jimzk5 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Does anyone know if it’s possible to find official arrival times for flights more than 1-2 days ago? Our flight to the US on the 18th left about 2:35 mins late and I am wondering when we officially landed (knowing there could be a lot of compensation to pay if it’s more than 3 hours late on arrival).
