Best thing is that maybe people will stop buying booze and start buying other drugs instead.....you know, those illegal (untaxed!) ones they tell us are so bad for us yet people can take for years without the same destructive capacity as booze to every aspect of their lives. That'll teach the...

Piece of nonsense. Just a tax, they don't care if a few hundred feckless plebs are alive in a few years, most likely anyone on skid row and drinking themselves to death is highly unlikely to be a productive member of society and working are they? Living in a box on benefits under a flyover and...

Like I've posted the others walked without burning their bridges when she was clearly a factor. I've had 7 months. and having given up my old job I have no alternative than to make this work. She has invited me to some of her exercise classes but so far I've avoided the question(direct btw)...

Nahhhh.....The big problem down south is flat land and clay soils. No quick run-off or drainage through the soil (Is that Hortonian overland flow when the rate of rainfall has exceeded infiltration capacity, Or Hewletts saturation overland flow?) Up here, we've got rocks, sand, gravel and a...

But since you've mentioned it John.....when she is being normal(could she be bi-polar?) and talkative it's actually scary how much we have in common and what our values are....But I treat people better than animals and she's the opposite... She's carrying so much anger though, I can see through...

No....just dinnae go there! :shock:

Well today was the "SHTF" day.... I made a small mistake yesterday and she picked up on it and went mad at me when she came in to go on late shift. I calmly but loudly told her I was "f"ing sick of her attitude, and that she was far from perfect, going on to cite several occasions where she has...

Cheers for that reply Big Tone, yeah I realise that most HR rules and regs are unenforceable bullsheet... It looks like I'm looking for another job anyway. You spend 1/3 of your life at work, more than most spend with the people you actually want to be with, so I'm not making myself ill over...

I've read up a fair bit on the contract side. Employers don't need to give an official contract but the fact I work there and have documented payslips/bank statements means I do have a contract. They are however required to give a written statement of my duties within a few months which they...

That employer "People for Work"? Yet another unnecessary ""Recruitment Agency"....so the employee gets 22.4k and they probably keep 10k for their services....C***S!!!!!!

I work in a distillery....just been online looking at jobs for "distillery operators" and found this..... http://www.totaljobs.com/JobSearch/JobDetails.aspx?JobId=55089948 Now....bearing in mind Glasgow has a higher pay rate than the average around here, I'm on more money(24k)....but...

So a written complaint? :?

Brilliant!!! This one's a vegan too. She treats animals better than humans. Trying to work out was it Hitler and/or Stalin that were vegetarians/and animal lovers.... Maybe Buddhist groups are riddled with folks that are ruthless total c***s 166 hrs a week and think sitting for 2 hrs a week...

I did actually say that to her a few weeks back, I said I could deal with constructive criticism but didn't think that the way she speaks to people was appropriate, she did mumble an apology of sorts but then it has no long term effect whatsoever. Maybe I need to lose the rag and dish it back...

She has a "running/cycling mantra" whilst out, and if she sees someone ahead she tries to catch them up. Her mantra? "If you catch them you can kill them". Not joking. She has the audacity to go to a Buddhist meditation group on a Wednesday...My other half has met her once and says you can see...

I left a secure good job in April and took one much closer to home(5 miles not 75) and on more money, happy days I thought. There's just 4 people in the company(we do have another 10 based in Glasgow but never see them), and within 2 weeks I realised what a monumental mistake I'd made. The...

The trainers he got("V- Sport" kinda Nike logo in Flash Gordon 1980 silver on suede) have proved to be utterly useless, heavy, no cushioning, even at a reduced size from the norm they're still like clown shoes and constantly tripping up the stairs as there's open risers, so given the metal...

Our house is all timber construction, larch cladded. We'd like to extend it to one side to form a decent sized living room, maybe 6mx5m. It would literally be like adding an insulated large pent shed on to the house, and the existing overhanging eaves of the roof above mean it would be simple to...

I've built 2, 8m cubed(2x2x2) of space in each approx from pallets. Each shed £45. And that was the cost of the coroline/bitumen roofing and 6" nails. One has withstood 2 trees falling on it. Strong, cheap, but you need to get pallets of identical make etc(critically the sizes) or it looks...

Not at height! Safely back in our depot on ground level, no power tools involved all hand hewn...! Only problem with that example is that one of the reasons there was a problem with the stone in the first place was our manager measured it up and recorded the sizes wrong....nobody beyond his...
