mong summer dream (now featuring added winter, also spring)

lol, what a crew of mouthbreathers

It was so disgusting. They broke a lamp and our blinds as well, and left dropped paint everywhere, and used cig butts all over the batyhroom, so gross. I took a bunch of photos, sent them to the realos with an outraged email... and despite the fact I'd comprehensively trashed that place myself over the 8 years I was there, I got all my bond back. Ha ha ha.

i like them but i think i might skip the $100 deluxe version this time

haw, good cover

I will only enjoy that cover if it comes out that it's a sincere homage to the Indecent Obsession debut

I think I have every physical CD they released from 2001 to 2008, but am hopping off the bus here. the lolgoth of Pretty Little Eyes is still my favourite probably :-/

'if i know you' is as good as it gets for me

I see, I see. Thanks. Hi Trayce.

getting that sweet redundancy package i was hoping for. now have interview for another job in a few hrs. cross fingers yo!

good luck brohem

big Phat redundancies are always sweet. My last one was speck-tacularly large #loloutofcontextthread

brilliant work haitch

gl haitcher

our restructure, the alleged imminentness of which barred me from becoming perm in this dept circa March '09, was finally presented to us last week. in the last month, three ppl have resigned, one was given a months-requested voluntary redundancy with literally two days formal notice. because the rest of us did not agree to the new structure at the meeting the day after we were told about it, the remaining four contract ppl [there is also one permanent and one maternity backfill] are getting yet another 3-month contract.

with 18 weeks of leave up my sleeve, this means that I will hit long service and can probably take a year off next year (w/ six mos at half pay).

I'm half expecting to hit 10 years at my job and be told "long service? we dont do that here dont be stupid".

(not sure if legal, but in 4 years ive never had any CPI increases to my pay)

i kinda screwed myself by leaving my last job halfway through despite racking up 11 years (6 + 5 with 3 months in the middle) at that shithole

having said that it was literally the only way i could get a decent payrise there

Yeah that blows :( I mean at this stage, i should have been able to celebrate two lots of LSL, but ive never had any, thanks to the IT industry shafting people so comprehensively that ive never worked anywhere longer than 6 years.

you could ask, let's say, now instead of then

(not sure if legal, but in 4 years ive never had any CPI increases to my pay)

lol because of never having spent a full year acting in my actual substantive position (and various HR and managerial dickery), last week I got my first annual in-role increase ever....... and then it turned out they'd lost the year before's paperwork so they had to do a new one with a backdated increase on that too °\^_^/°

ps jim can you make sure we're non-indexed

we are

jim'll fix it

Yeah Im not saying its unfair or unusual, its sadly more usual than ever now thanx to contracting and whatnot. N gets a CPI increase every year AND a freaking bonus of several thou. But I wouldnt want to do what he does for a living tbqh.

Fucken go overseas. I was able to *save* money when I took my LSL & holiday pay while living it large in Germany. Of course, now I have nothing to show for it.

Also Mazel Tov H. That was the best possible outcome we was discussing, no?

Fucken go overseas.
