ALMOST isn't close enough my friend....

Incursus

Boss was saying I should do it the long way....drive over a 1000miles

Roadkill

No.  The long way involves swimming the wet bit between here and there as well.

philoldsmobile

I was worried for a minute there ?

Thought you might actually be working

Been fighting a rising tidy at work again recently , long hours , difficulties with statutory inspections/ HSE and the pending dismissal of an Employee have all been making life difficult.
Had a meeting with Big Boss this morning and he surprised me by asking  if I'd like to apply for an Executive Managers position ?
The down sides are more hours , more responsibility , more crap , more international travel , but the upside is up to a 60% pay rise , free car & petrol ( taxed ) and a 50% discount on fleet car as well.
So after careful consideration ( read looking at the bank balance ) I'm gona give it a go , it's not an open & shut case because they are going to run an assessment centre and quite a few other people will apply for the job.
Nothing ventured - nothing gained !

NB : I'm not planning to tell F Body Management yet in case I get blown out - so Mum's the word.

Laptop will still be down until at least Sunday , by which time it should have dropped off the page - if no one posts DOH !

heheh mental note  - must ho on this topic


Roadkill

Hmm.

I'm gonna be going for another job today, too.

It's exactly what I'm doing now . . . . Only they're paying £40,000 + Bonus + Car + Health Care.

I'm currently getting just over HALF of that . . . No car, No bonus and No Health Care.

Needless to say I doubt I'll get it but it just goes to show how crappy my salary is.


Incursus

Ahhh the sun is shining, I have a beer in my hands and i've been surrounded by sunshine sheila's all day....if only the Duster wasn't 30miles away....still 3 out of 4's prettys good

Bummer Mate , I'm not going to disclose what my current retaining fee is ?
Let's just say I'm paying too much tax  

Doh ! back to the top of the page !

Well today sucked

Took a day off to fix the chavscort brakes, lets start with the wrong flexable lines followed by the new caliper being broken, add to this the fact i had already stripped the front brakes off the car. So now i have a car with no brakes and no time to fix them family comitments this weekend, billing next and stratford after that so i might get the car fixed end of the month.

Managed to squeeze it into an already stuufed barn but twisted my ankle mooving the bbq and broke my toe kicking the subframe that caused the injury.

Today sucks

Roadkill

Would now be a bad time to post a sarcastic comment ?
