You're going to need to be more specific.

my dad's bought a camera online from a dodgy company in hong kong. there's terrible reviews all over the internet about ripping people off, sending used, reconditioned, faulty or fake goods, zero support, non-existent warranty, the list goes on and on... no matter how much i warn him about this stuff, he still thinks he's got a bargain. a £260 camera for £190 is too good to be true!

 

:siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh: :facepalm:

 

well blow me down, he received his camera earlier than expected and everything seems legit.

Please let her know that a panel of electronic music enthusiasts registered a protest with the sunflower judging board, and our inquiry is pending.

I finally got a job earlier this month after a few months of being unemployed, and I HATE it...

 

I took a job offer doing some data entry and user & client experience testing of a program for the fairly new and growing company my mother works for, and it's terrible. It's not even working for the same company as my mother that's the problem. I just really can't stand this type of work, it's tedious and dull and try as I might I can't seem to get excited about what the company does at all. I feel bad because my mother and the company owner gave me a great opportunity to work for them. There is a lot of potential to grow and expand with the company, and the company has been doing well lately but... It's really not the type of work for me and I know this, I'm pretty certain my mother has become aware of this as well.

You've only just started, give it more of a chance at least. Job is better than no job, and this one does sound secure (yeah, i'm pretty conservative).

Well I didn't just start I actually started last month rather than earlier this month (my concept of time sucks sometimes) But, yeah I know, it is a job and well that's something to hang onto in this recession. I'm not gonna up and walk out on them, but I think I may continue to look around for other options. I've been thinking of going back to school but not for audio production like I had been doing, instead I'd go for a 2 year degree in something. Been considering taking courses to become an EMT and maybe eventually a full Paramedic. Took a career assessment test a couple months back that said I'd probably enjoy that kind of work and I've been giving it some thought lately.

I got fifteen quid stolen from my purse at work today. Happy Birthday to me.

where did you conjure the avatar from?

 

happy birthday btw. I had a shitty one too last weekend. I hate birthdays.

I made it in MS Paint years ago - I was depicting the upper-middle class pigeons (my mum was feeding them stale croissants at the time) that were frequenting my parents' garden. The thing that looks like an eye infection is supposed to be a monacle...

 

 

I did get the money back, and then spent half of it on a very large, very overpriced stiff drink ten minutes later, which seems a bit stupid now.

Trying to learn Japanese. Fuuuuuu

lol I thought it was some kind of robot eye at first (fyi I am sticking with this interpretation for my personal enjoyment). how did you manage to get the money back?

Took it out of the work safe, made a petty cash claim! This may have been a bad idea and I may get a bollocking for it but it wasn't my idea and my manager approved it so fuck 'em.

 

I like the robot eye interpretation. If only more pigeons were croissant-consuming, tophat-clad androids. *Sigh*

Don't say that - I'm signing up for a 10-week evening class in the Autumn! (It's a beginner course, btw)

 

Thunderstorms kept me awake all of last night. Lightning was ripping across the sky every few seconds (bedroom strobing with light, thought it was something up with my eyesight at first!), booming thunder every minute or so, torrential rain, neighbourhood dogs barking like crazy. I would have got up to watch it, but it was so hot I didn't even have the energy to get up to go to the window. Stumbled out of bed this morning with a pounding headache, feel terrible. The only saving grace is that I have the option to work from home.

"hey boss-person, I need money for drinks and frivolity and shite"

"ok"

Just a book shop. But it was an outside job; Someone broke through the fire escape and went through our bags, so apparently we're covered. I wasn't expecting to be reimbursed as it was my own fault for not using my locker. Wasn't gonna turn it down though!

That really sucks. Do you have an idea who did it?

Sprillian works for Bernard Black. he stole some money from the shop safe and made it look like an outside job so that he would a) have money to spend on booze 'n fags, and b) graciously allow people to be reimbursed in the hopes that they would spend it on booze 'n fags to share with him.

I was woken up at 3 this morning by a sudden cramp in my calf. Jumped out of bed going FUCK!FUCK!FUCK!FUCK! Scaring the crap out of my girlfriend in the process who punctuated every FUCK! with a WHAT?!

As I stood up and began to hobble around, there was a flash of light from the bedroom window which my sleep addled brain interpreted as someone taking photos from one of the houses opposite our bedroom window.

 

All in all a rather bewildering awakening.
