    This could actually be under "Stupidest Villains Plan"...
    The Corporate world wants to employ as FEW people as possible, giving them as few hours as possible, paying them as little as possible, and expect them in turn to have enough income to buy their goods & services, all the while destroying the planet they sail their yachts around, and destabilizing the very societies they live in/feed off of...

    THAT, is a stupid villain plan if I ever heard one. Suddenly, Stromberg doesn't seem so out there, eh?

    The minister of transport has said anyone traveling over Easter, would be
    better off not using the trains ? 8-) , I keep forgetting the UK is NOT a modern
    Western country. :# Imaging expecting a public transport system, that works !

    Hilarious!

    So what are people supposed to use?
    Their cars?
    Private Jets?
    Horses?

    If that statement came from a german minister of transport, I am sure that this will be a reason for him to resign.

    Yes, repairs and maintenance must be done. -{ but perhaps they might
    Try and do them during the night, or times of least rail traffic and not during
    A huge Bank holiday weekend. :D

    Sorry I'm late Captain Scarlet - pleased it went well for you. I work in office based customer services and have done face to face jobs in the past myself. As well as fully agreeing with what the others said and advised, I too know what it's like when the pressure gets too much. I've had the therapy too to prove it.
    I'm lucky, I changed companies and subsequently internal departments. I work with great people and (as a day job which pays the bills) now enjoy what I do. But in some ways I paid a price to get there. It ain't worth that.

    Well done, and again like the others have said, you know where We are if you need us. -{
    This is Thunderbird 2, how can I be of assistance?

    Yes, ive recalled all the boys,they are all safely back in their padded cells :)
    Now you've had a close shave with the dole que ,get your own back on Tesco , go and get yourself a nice well paid job with a future,so you can provide for the bump :) ,and when your ready hand your notice in ,when it suits you .I would imagine Tesco would only require 2 weeks notice at most ,Then hand in your notice ,say at Christmas ,when they need you the most ,and drop them in the kak, :D

    Being a dad = best thing ever.

    I thought I'd be a bit lost with dolls etc but I'm actually very au fait with the tea set and kitchen unit.

    I once left the house after my daughters had had a go at fixining my hair, I
    Only missed one bright pink hair clip. :)) they'd have been around three or
    Four at the time. I only noticed it in a reflection after I'd been in a couple of
    Shops.

    If I only had a quid for every time I'd gone out without noticing the various stains, splodges and snot wipe marks on my jacket or fleece.

    And then there's all the marks micro leaves behind...

    Looking for info on B&Q's Easter opening times, I stumbled upon this nugget of a comment on their Facebook page; (corrections and comments in red)

    I brought (no, you BOUGHT)x2 solar lights last year only to use them for three months before storing away for winter.when the nights are longer and you'd need some lights to guide your way, only they're busy keeping the inside of your shed lit up Item number 5052931298372. I took back to Eastbourne as this is where I brought them from, I explained I could not find receipt for them only to have the sales person laugh at me and say " they are still yours" I did not want a refund just for them to be looked at for a problem or exchanged.Exchanged after 3 months 'in your shed?!' Without receipt?! This is not what I was expecting. and what was that, a marching band celebration at your return to the store?I then asked to speak to the manager (Chris ) who also said nothing they could do? Truly bad form.More like truly expected response. B&Q only sell theses lights and I was not looking for a refund just help with faulty products.Tried switching it off and back on again? I then left the lights at the store saying I would contact head office only to be told " take them with you it's not down to us to look after your equipment " truly unhappy with the way I was dealt with.Act like a bellend...I am a loyal customer who is also a club member.Which means jaff all to anyone on the planet bar you Membership number 635666 95 1241 7584.Thanks for that - Mr I. D. Thief So as it stands I left the faulty lights at the Eastbourne store with a manager " Chris" under protest from him as they are no good to me buying faulty products!Chuck them in your bin then, along with yourself As I left the store I left a trolley with over £200 of proucts that I was now un willing to buy.BULL. SH1T. I am not supprised(1 p) that b&q are not doing so well thesestheses? Trying for 'these'? days!Neither am I, if I was 'Chris' I'd wrap a spade round your face Training needed a common sense !In the words of today's youth - Dafuq you just say? Not sure I will be shopping with you again!now the matching band celebrations come out Very angry Mr Houghton.Mr Retired, with nothing better to do than write arse-faced complaints on Facebook"

    Holy sweet Jesus, how in gods name does anyone in retail put up with utter cocks like that? You must have the patience of mother Teresa to withstand absolutely idiots cribbing on like that.

    I pity anyone in retail, it must truly suck bawls some days.
