Just got home after a twelve hour shift overseeing my shop's stock take. It's 2am and I'm due back at work at 8am.

These particular stock counters were absolutely fucking awful as well.

On the plus side, my taxi driver didn't have a pen to write me a receipt so gave me blank one, so at least I can claim back a few extra quid from petty cash for my trouble.

Sprillian, this sounds completely abhorrent. I have done these stock count things in the past where the stock takers have been a bunch of bastards and I've had a late finish, only to get up early the next day to go back there after being up late counting their shit. I got measly wages for it as well (this was 2003 and i got time and a half). The company was a well known electrical retailer. I know them as Cuntys.

They were so lazy, and inaccurate. I like to think if I was a stock taker, I would be the most efficient, accurate one around, but they just didn't give a shit. Didn't get paid any more for doing it either.

Friend of mine from Vancouver went to Montreal to study, I fear she has turned this way also.

Can't be bothered to finish this dissertation short letter.

They drink alcohol, they smoke and are vegans. I'm not into that. Fuck it. What should I do? I'll stay obviously, but I think it is pretty stupid to drink and smoke all the fucking time. Is like jerking off all the time, or playing videogames. Stupid addictions. Wtf should I do?

You could just continue what it is you do and not care about what they choose to do. I play in a band with chain-smoking alcoholics. When they have a smoke break, i don't. When they have four beers, I have one. Simple.

FWP: my San Fransisco trip is over. :(

I just got called Hitler for confusing two vaguely similar looking people for each other (I was and am still extremely tired and unalert).

fk 'em stupid moany cunts. Plus seeing as they went there you could go all pc on their arses for calling you hitler. I mean come on, madame hitler please. ;-]

I was too tired to think of anything to say, needless to say I won't be going back.

Looks like I'll be made redundant. Six members of my team across two sites are being reduced to one, with the remaining five roles being offshored. No possibility to fight your corner through interview either - it's pre-scored and the decision is announced a week on Monday.

but you're jasondonervan....

does...not...compute

My roommate-to-be bailed, and I can't afford an apartment by myself. Shit.

Well if I am made redundant, I definitely won't compute!

It's not the end of the world anyway, I've been with(in) the company for 11 years (I've contracted in it for the last two years due to outsourcing), so a redundancy payout will be pretty sweet, mainly due to the fact that my terms of employment carried over - and they are far more generous than the company I currently work for. I'd have to do a knowledge transfer for anywhere up to 6 months, and I have a notice period of three months which could theoretically mean being paid on gardening leave (but not able to get another job). I'll most likely hoon off on some extended hols if that's the case...

Yeah, I could do that... alright, it's a bit demeaning...

Dang I live pretty close to SF. What'd you do?

Stayed with Goiter Sanchez and his hubby, who spoiled my girlfriend and I with his gourmet cooking mastery, did lots of sightseeing and wandering around, got smashed and sang kareoke, made friends with a crazy homeless man (AKA The Hero With a Thousand Faces), did some rollercoasting and tried my first corndog at the Santa Cruise Boardwalk. It was a top notch vacation.

Oh ya, santa cruz is also a great place to visit. Sounds like you had a good time so it was also a FWS

Oh yes, huge success! And we captured lots of great video footage to keep the memories alive.

Feedly being now down for almost twelve hours due to DDoS - Hackers demanding money.

Yeah, criminals are bad and everything but these fucking tech companies need to get their acts together and stop this shit. eBay, Evernote, - lately they've all been hit.

We can send people to the moon, perform keyhole surgery, unlock DNA sequences but we can't stop fucking websites being hacked.

Jeez.

I couldn't unfreeze my hamburger fast enough so I went bananas and tried to kill it stabbing it multiple times. I finally threw it to the garbage.

nice
