MTFU and keep invoicing.Originally posted by Blakes03 View PostIt’s like the contractors in this part of the office need to have advanced SARS with a touch of the Bird Flu before they decide not to come into the office and spread the lovely infections to every other contractor FFS.I'm not even an atheist so much as I am an antitheist; I not only maintain that all religions are versions of the same untruth, but I hold that the influence of churches, and the effect of religious belief, is positively harmful.

Can't be proper contractors if they stay off with only SARS and a touch of Bird FluOriginally posted by Blakes03 View PostIt’s like the contractors in this part of the office need to have advanced SARS with a touch of the Bird Flu before they decide not to come into the office and spread the lovely infections to every other contractor FFS.Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.

FFS – the coughing and splutter is bad enough but skin is peeling off this one next to me – he just put it in the bin without even leaving his keyboard. Another one has just been resuscitated by his colleague, again without leaving his keyboard.
If I manage to leave here today without a fecking disease I’ll be happyComment
