I’ve had to come into the office - nice that there’s no one else here though! I should be used to it now, I’ve only had one full weekend off since August and averaged 100hrs overtime a month for the last few months… still, would’ve loved to have taken advantage of an extra hour in bed Have got some tunes on loud and will be leaving by 4 at the latest. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My gran told me the other day she was up to date with her covid vaccines, she said it was something like 12 boosters. I was shocked! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hate sniffly head colds. No head cold (although I suffer from chronic catarrh anyway), but headache, muscle aches and slight temperature. It'll only be 24 hours if the last time was anything to go by. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Paying near 40 quid for 2 carverys and having to queue half hour for your dinner. Dog shit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethRDR Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Could have compressed that to "carverys" and "dog shit". I'm yet to experience one that wasn't one of the circles of hell. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GarethRDR Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 I have been attempting to cultivate a two-tier social caste system within my team at work; those of us who have the internet, and those of us who have Virgin Media. HR not involved as of yet, but I await their MS Teams call anyday now (or not at all, if they're using Virgin too). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugeley Villa Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Got to do a supervisory test on Wednesday at Sutton Coldfield.

But good luck. Well I did have a look through earlier and failed miserably on the supervisory part of the book. What I’ve done is tick the correct boxes for the answers A B C D etc and I’m just going to go through the questions several times and memorise the correct answers. The general H&S part of the test is mainly common sense so not too many worries there. Thank you anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maqroll Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 How hard, really, is it to correctly spell "Buendia"? The misspelling I usually see is "Beundia", which is annoying. Phonetically it would sound like "Boon-dia". But today I've seen someone spell it "Bundeia". Which would phonetically sound like "Bunn-day-uh". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
