    As for my former client (ie, now boss, contractor who had to change to permie), I am doing half of his work as well as my own.

    Office politics are the worst I have seen, anywhere.

    Working so far from home (60 miles) I have the joys of a Travelodge on Wednesdays.

    Can somebody humour me and make their life sound worse?
    It could be worse. You could be sh*fting Gerri Haliwell

    http://www.animalrescuers.co.uk/html/rabferr.html references the bunny camp, but the site no longer exists.

    Where are they sending your crackers to? Have you got anything else to eat? This is definitely harassment.

    Bring in Rabbit pie for tomorrow's lunch in replacement for your crackers. 2 birds, one stone - easy.

    Do his half of the work badly, nick his job when he's found out.

    Get yourself a big plate and make the most of the eat all you can breakfast - boomed.

    Not personally, but I do know of a chap who bought this car, turned out to be a right crock - it's been in the garage for about 4 months now and he argues with them every day... Err, that might not help.
