I'm getting a second bonus in November.
Woohoo.
So what car you getting?
Delorian?
Time Travel back to the 80's, and turn out to be the sole cause of the London Property Boom.
Lolwat.
Sounds like a plan
It's reverse political causality.
If I, as a committed left liberal of limited socialistic leanings were to go and tinker with the god awful greed of the 80's, RPC would ensure I turn out to be the power behind the throne, and directly responsible for everyone younger than 60 being stuffed for easy home ownership.
You should get that electric velo bike. Be a proper liberal.
No.
I simply don't have that level of smug within me. :p
Really you should be using the Boris bike.
Barely move in London. I get dropped off by my coach at Canary Wharf, and then it's a 10 minute walk to my office. Boris Bike really isn't required.
But you know what...November bonus, designed to give us a little extra cash in our sky rocket to help out with Chrimbo.....
I have no SO, and no dependants. Immediate family of three, so few pressies to buy.
Reckon I'm going to have to do the right thing and donate a decent chunk of it to a children's charity. One that ensures the poorest of poor little sods actually get something from Santa at Christmas. And by donate, I mean go out and buy toys, rather than the (to me) slightly cold giving of cash. That way, kid is getting something I reckon is well cool, rather than a sterile, mass bought because the money goes a bit further* gift.
*Nowt wrong with that for charities mind!
Surely to celebrate the Birth of Christ you need to believe in him, or are you just celebrating Capitalism?
I'm celebrating a day in the year where mankind is actively encouraged not to be an arse to each other.
And you know, random acts of kindness are good for the soul.
Money isn't for charity, they just waste it on PR and posh offices.
Donate time if you must.
Enjoy your money properly by acquiring experiences and possessions.
Which is why Imma buy toys, and donate them.
That, and toy shopping is *fun*
Yeah I finished reading the post after my initial horror caused my reply :D
Nah.
All just about being a nice dude, and not spending all my money on me.
Just most of it.
Sorry, just being an arse.
It is refreshing to see charity

Of course given the brown background it is ironic.
My one will be on a black hoodie.
Because Hoodies are dead comfy.
Reminded me of hug a hoodie

urgh feel so sick. :(
Inconsiderate work colleagues and lavender air freshener.
Scenario I:
Inconsiderate colleague "droped" such a "bomb" that a cannister of air freshner was the only thing to stop the room smelling of fecease
Scenario II:
Inconsiderate colleague, in a fit of peak, attacked Spodgy with lavender air freshner to object to his neck beard body odours
Scenario III:
Inconsiderate colleague has read about the mystic energy and stress release that smelling lavender does, so doused the workshop liberaly with it
Scenario IV:
A new lavendar.
It is a period of civil war.
Rebel spaceships, striking
from a hidden base, have
won their first victory against
the evil Galactic Empire.
During the battle, Rebel
spies managed to steal secret
plans to the Empire's
ultimate weapon, the DEATH
STAR, an armored space
station with enough power
to destroy an entire planet.
Pursued by the Empire's
sinister agents, Princess
Leia races home aboard her
starship, custodian of the
stolen plans that can save her
people and restore
freedom to the galaxy....
Scenario one would be accurate, however as a company we've managed for the entirety of my employment to date to manage without air freshener in the building. No idea where it appeared from. Upon returning from outside where I'd won the battle with my stomach over whether to disgorge its contents or not I offered to vomit profusely next time it is used.
Moreover, ask to see the risk assement for the use of aersole in an enclosed environment
hahahahahahahahahaha
As if H&S exists here, you should see how we access the high level racking.
So a couple of months ago a project manager took one of my ideas to develop into a business case.
Today he came and spoke to me, then told me the exact same information again in an email with my original idea copy and pasted into a form....
So you're definitely aware of it then?
I fail to see the value he has given.
Though I have just found out that the budget for him is zero, not his operational budget, but the one that pays his wage. "At risk" I believe is how they call it.
oh dear...
Middle management?
"Consultant"
uh, worse.
Hurrah for a permanent contract, that's what I say!
Huzzah!
Yarparoo!
Sadly, my Mentees? 36 month contracts. So they've got roughly 24 months left.....
Though I do expect a goodly number to be extended. This thing just won't die!
Sometimes, I look at all the posts on this thread and go "I can't be arsed to read all of this"
