I caught a chicken for dinner, but I didn't know how to cook it so I couldn't eat it.

You are easily wound up, and once I had thought about it the joke is not wearing thin.

and you throw a mardy fit when someone calls you a **** in a jokey way.....:icon_roll

Bought and set up a new computer today. Spent over an hour speaking to a call centre in India trying to set up my wifi broadband before the silly cow passed me on to someone who knew what they were doing.

Was her name Mary Smith? Had problems with her before.

Was her name Mary Smith?

From her accent I seriously doubt that it was.

Had a BT bloke introduce himself as James McDonald once. If his name was James McDonald I live on the moon. With Keith Harris.

I started writing a program at around 3 this morning that I thought would take several days to finish. But it's all finished, tested and seemingly bug free. So I'm going to go to bed now before I find something wrong with it...

 

[Lako42]

Gone to work for the first time in 9 days.

Got an interview/assesment for a job today,I shall no doubt acheive a complete bollox of it

''We will let everyone know on Friday morning whether they have the job or not and will give feedback,this will be done by midday Friday''

Two phonecalls to them and still waiting,clearly a No but at least have the decency to phone and tell me ffs

Sounds like the last 6 months for me :icon_bigg very few employers have the common decency these days to actually call or write until you've forgotten you ever applied for a job with them in the first place. The best I've had so far is a company telling me they'd give me a response 'some time tomorrow'. They called me at 5.29pm to inform me they'd hired someone who lived nearer :icon_roll

 

[highland fox]

Makes you wonder if you would want to work for these type of people anyway

 

[Lako42]

Avoided HF's baiting.

Exactly. As a matter of principle I now no longer apply for jobs advertised by agencies, because the jobs almost invariably do not exist.
