Had a word over his head yesterday and the chaps going to sort him out but I know that's not going to work so hes going to end up looking like the rugby ball leaving Jonny Wilkinsons boot in the dying seconds of the 2003 world cup final...What happens in General, stays in General.You know what they say about assumptions!Comment

I've just finished a 4 year stint. I got to the point where i was sick of the place and going to thump someone and I wanted out... but they kept paying me and the work was easy, yet boring. My contract expired and didn't renew so i was freeeeeeeee!!
But now i've been on the bench for a month and i'm bored and becoming poorer and i sort of wish i was still invoicing, but i'm still glad as hell not to be in that silly place anymore.
Dunno, it's a toss up which is worse: the tulipty job, or perhaps a bit of poverty...Comment
