I feel your pain mate… Fortunately I seem to have a better relationship with me boss... There was an accident 2nd week he was in and me yelling to him through the phone that helped though... I'm always corteous and will pretty much do anything to help, but there are lines... He learned pretty quickly...

Thanks Rocket :). I have a feeling I'll need it. Management are all smiles and gratitude when you agree to "favours" and then somehow their memories get a little fuzzy when it comes to paying dues.

Apparently there are a few sporting events happening this year that the "Galactic Empire" (Knutsford branch) thinks that the staff might like to watch.

So, a tv ( an actual working colour!! flat-screen!!) was installed in the staff room on Friday.

So far I've had to suffer through Home Alone 2 and numerous repeats of Jeremy Kyle…

No thought went into this at all.

Woah there, Home Alone 2 is a cool flick!

[Morose_Penguin]

I do hope that's sarcasm there…

[Seul]

Home Alone 1 and 2 are UNFUCKWITHABLE!..

[Finn666]

off to work… 

[Chris]

Home Alone 3 is just wrong, though…

This! There's something undeniable funny about a man having a full can of paint swung into his face. The violence is cartoonishly brutal.

Not on a scale of wrongness as "The Next Karate Kid", I wept tears of blood 

[MikeC]

Morose Penguin, I feel for you.

[Morose_Penguin]

Cheers Mike :). Think I'll take my lunch break outside of the staff room in future. Things will only get worse I fear…

Was that the one with Hillary Swank, or the one with Will Smith's son?  I could believe that reaction for either.

I was referring to the Hilary Swank abomination. I refuse to acknowledge the existence of the later version, as I cannot say a bad word about Jackie Chan, and therefore have stopped watching his movies.

Good policy…

Wasted the last 2 months of my life training a new kid and he calls today 2 hours before he's supposed to be there and says "I'm moving out west because I feel like I have salt water in my veins"

I wanted to say "hey dumbass, there's an ocean 3 hours east of here!!!"

[Seul]

Should've said "If you leave now you will have salt water in those veins by the next morning…"

Don't get me started on the "newer" Karate Kid.  In Hot Tub Time Machine, they make a hilarious reference about the main dick in the skeleton costume.

[Megatron1505]

There will only ever be one Daniel Larusso. The last movie was set in china right? With the kid learning Kung-Fu, not Karate? And still they called it the Karate Kid  :-\
