      I had my guys cracking the shits about unfair compensation. Had the big managers in today to hear all stories. Turns out that the tooth and nail fighting I've done for them is 2-3x better than any other team in the company, and they still feel hard done by. They claim they don't get to use the time off, yet the guy complaining the loudest has had off 2 days in a fortnight, and the team of 3 has had 5 days off between them in 14 days. The execs are shocked I managed to get them the entitlements to begin with.

      Teams eh!

                    Bonus update! The regular bonus has been "capped", we had planned to spend it on…

                    1. Tommy's Christmas present

                    2. A few items for my winter wardrobe.

                    3. Re-plastering the living room and hallway.

                    Now we can only afford 2 out of 3.....the living room looks fine as it is to me  😃

                        Two things:

                        1. parking regulations still apply to you, even if you ride a motorcycle,
                        2. no, you're not actually in the handicapped spot, but you're blocking the access to it, which is illegal, asshole.

                        I just helped a mother put her wheelchair bound son in a van- she couldn't get to the side door of the van because this prick blocked it.

                          The good thing about a motorcycle doing that is that it's easy for a good citizen to move the thing, very roughly, out of the way.

                          Think it, be it.

                              I drank like an eejit yesterday, resulting in a bad hangover… It's fading as we speak, but I did decide to ask my collegue to cover for me tomorrow morning.

                              It's a rant, cause I don't like skipping a workday unless I'm almost dying... I'll do the hours next week but still... I'm a dumbarse bastard son of a limping penguin.

                                I had a horrible hangover yesterday. Throwing up and cold sweats before a cab ride to the airport and a delayed flight is not the way you should ever spend your time while hung over.

                                    My GF's parents had a little dinner for me when I got to Toronto. They bought 3 bottles of wine for the night. I had literally one sip and couldn't drink anymore.

                                    In a very thick Ukrainian accent, her mother asked me, "Why are you no drinking?" "Are you a hangover?"

                                    Yes, I'm a hangover.

                                          Packed some beers for a trade with a yank… Bombproof packaging... Added a lil extra bottle... Hauled it to the postoffice in the pouring rain... Clerk puts it on the scale: 5.1 kgs... 0-5 kg = 32.8 €, 5-10 kg = 65 €.

                                          Took it back home, opened it up, took out the extra, closed it again, back to the PO in a bit.

                                          😞
