But remember, this February is a very special February and this is something to keep reminding the permies. They have to work an extra day for nothing whilst we get paid for it.
As this extra day is a complete bonus, we should all treat ourselves with the money.
What will you be buying yourself for Leap Year Bonus Ball day?Guy Fawkes - "The last man to enter Parliament with honourable intentions."Comment

Saddies are allowed, but we don't have any accurate pictures of the sad gits on here, though I believe they are referred to as the Majestic 12.Feist - 1234. One camera, one take, no editing. Superb. How they did it

Pondlife: I told them about last Friday, that I will have to go out of the house for 2 appointments, and gave them the choice, I either be available on the mobile phone and email (had my laptop with me - but I expected them to ring me if they need me) the other option is for me to officially take a day off, the programme manager chose to have me on-call so to speak, so he knew I will be out of the house, but will keep my mobile on and they can reach me anytime they need to... but the fact is they didn't call...
Do you still think its fraud?Comment
