ailsa would like a pint with someone and I've let her down.

Talking of crap employers...

I got the sack yesterday for reading my email. No warning, just one strike and out. It was all over in a matter of minutes. Cunts.

So me and Hmmm are no longer colleagues. Boo!

Stew (stew s), Wednesday, 17 May 2006 12:15 (eighteen years ago) link

I don't really want a pint on Sunday, I would have preferred Sunday for aldo-FAP is all. The rush to notify me so I could negotiate a start date with my new employer which didn't coincide with a hangover was all in vain, since they haven't actually phoned to offer me the job. Thanks for the DVDs anyway, Al, which I am leaving to go and pick up in a matter of minutes. *checks watch, panics*

Aw, Stew, I'd just applied for a job with your work as well :-(

ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 17 May 2006 16:31 (eighteen years ago) link

The management there have turned evil. Don't believe all the "you're an associate not an employee" pish! All the best with that though, a job's a job!

Stew (stew s), Wednesday, 17 May 2006 17:27 (eighteen years ago) link

bloody hell, stew! that's deeply harsh. fucking hell.

but hey, glasgow. we can still drink without aldo. when shall we do it?

So me and Hmmm are no longer colleagues. Boo!

Oh no! Should they not have instigated some sort of disciplinary procedure rather than just asking you to leave?

Shits.

Talking again of crap employers, my trip next week has just been fucking cancelled. Since I can't rant and shout in the office I'll do it here instead.

aldo, i emailed you to your work because i couldn't remember what variant of your name you used for your email. however, it was to offer to buy you beer in glasgow, so i guess it doesn't matter if you didn't get it.

ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 18 May 2006 18:10 (eighteen years ago) link

anyone been to the new comme des garcons?

cozen (Cozen), Sunday, 21 May 2006 07:09 (eighteen years ago) link

I have no idea where that is but I'm intrigued. To the google machine!

jimnaseum (jimnaseum), Sunday, 21 May 2006 14:14 (eighteen years ago) link

wow i didn't know about that CDG. maybe it's gone by now.


anyway: i saw jandek walking down buchanan street today WTF?!!!!!!

jed_ (jed), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 19:23 (eighteen years ago) link

did you try talking to him?!

geeta (geeta), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 19:49 (eighteen years ago) link

no, i looked at him and he saw some sort of flicker of aknowledgement in me before looking down and walking past.

jed_ (jed), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 19:54 (eighteen years ago) link

You'll be glad I've got a lovely new temp job at Yell, starting at the end of next week. It's an ok place to work apparently as most of the people are over-educated slackers like myself.

ATP was rad!

Stew (stew s), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 13:32 (eighteen years ago) link

Hurrah for Stew! I need a temp job too, but I can't actually be bothered going any further than Paisley to look for one.

ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 13:41 (eighteen years ago) link

no-one at my work is an "over-educated slacker"

RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 13:45 (eighteen years ago) link

Perhaps "arts graduate" is a better and more accurate term!

Stew (stew s), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 13:52 (eighteen years ago) link

dunno how many, of them, we have, either

RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 14:04 (eighteen years ago) link

no-one at my work is RJG. Or Stew, either.

stet (stet), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 14:30 (eighteen years ago) link

comme des garcons is here for a year I think

cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 15:58 (eighteen years ago) link

let's go

RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 16:15 (eighteen years ago) link

OK

cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 16:24 (eighteen years ago) link

grimly fiendish (grimlord), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 21:30 (eighteen years ago) link

9/10. You were docked a point for not reversing the B in ABBA.

Cor, World Cup + Winchester = fantabulous amounts of boozing. Hurrah! (I probably won't be there, like, but, y'know...)

cathy says she thinks this one is "hot" but I think he dresses far too casually

RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 31 May 2006 17:09 (eighteen years ago) link

I'd totally do a Persian.

Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 31 May 2006 20:43 (eighteen years ago) link

Lara (Lara), Wednesday, 31 May 2006 20:46 (eighteen years ago) link

grimly fiendish (grimlord), Wednesday, 31 May 2006 21:09 (eighteen years ago) link

RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 31 May 2006 22:25 (eighteen years ago) link

I really really like the look of the Persian but I am leaving tomorrow : (

Cathy (Cathy), Thursday, 1 June 2006 07:16 (eighteen years ago) link

I like the look of Persian and also of Glasgow Green beer place. Let's go out, Glasgow!
