Done
Thanks for all the useful advice (removes tongue from cheek) handed in my resignation this morning. 4 weeks gardening leave would have been nice but no joy.
Quite a stressful experience, never left anywhere by choice before ! Boss looked a bit shocked but think he knew I was looking so not a huge surprise. Don't kid myself that I am key to the success of the company, everyone can be replaced and it usually only causes a minor ripple.
Right, time to find out how bad the car they are offering me at the new place is !

When I had a contract with the police, I had a competition with myself to see how long I could spend in the toilet each day. I developed an innovative way to sleep in the cubicleOriginally posted by FranckoNaaa, do like my colleague does... 19 hour of going to cafeteria and drink a coffe and 10 hours of internet surfing... your work should be more balanced.
Unfortunately, after 20 minutes, some git would always disturb the peace by unloading his breakfast.

38 hours of web surfinf? That's tiring and eventually you might end up in some websites that somehow resambles work.Originally posted by WageSlave42 hours for a Big 5!? What ever happened to the blood, tears and bullying? I regularly used to do 90 hour weeks a couple of years back, until I became so ill that the client insisted I went home early and only complete 55 p/w.
These days I do about 38 hours of web surfing and feck off home
Naaa, do like my colleague does... 19 hour of going to cafeteria and drink a coffe and 10 hours of internet surfing... your work should be more balanced.
Plus, this is one of the big 5 that wants to pretend it care about their employees. Translated means that if you are shameless you can take advantage of your peers so you can work from home, pretend to work, or anything you wish. You only need to lose your conscience.

Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth - if it's alright with everyone else.
