Should I just shut up and take my £400 per day? How do I pass the other 6.5 hours of my working day?
You are earning nearly 10x that.
So STFU and be grateful for what you've got. Cos there are a lot of people earning a hell of a lot less.
To55er.Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

n00b fight! Get in
He will be calmer when he comes back from the bogs, just don't shake his hand when you meet him.
You a chubby chaser eh? Get you bag of flour while picking up the porno?
I was so bored at one job I made a little timer to count how long I was in the bog each day so I knew exactly how much per month I had earned while away from the desk. Surprising how it all mounts upComment
