Thanks guys. Been watering and bi-carbing all day tbh.

I have bigger fish to fry now though...the stupid fuckhead company I work for just let me go. They literally don't have the money to pay me for a single day more. They're on credit hold with every supplier, can't buy in stock so there's nothing to sell. I hope the building burns down.

If anyone knows of a position going, hit me a PM.
That sucks Mixie. Things are looking grim round these parts also.

Yeah that totally sucks Mixxie. Ya not having the best of luck with companies of late, maybe you need to go bigger company? or smaller? dunno, but they have all sounded like complete twats.

Squiz - i hope you are okay. How on earth did you do it?

Booking a massage appointment on my only day off, sitting patiently in the waiting room for 25 mins AFTER the appointment was to have begun, receptionist finally appearing and asking what I am waiting for, letting her know, her disappearing for another 10 minutes, then on making my way angrily out the door, her saying, "I can take you phone number if you like"

My gripe is the Squat Toilet in China. Possibly the most disgusting thing still being used by a large number of people on this planet in the 21st century.

They are often open and and a guy will be looking at you come in to the toilet, while he is squatting, with a hefty pile of turd expelled, SMSing on his phone!!!

My second gripe is being too bloody big and inflexible to utilise said apparatus.

mixtress · Post by **mixtress** » Tue Mar 24, 2009 8:05 pm

hmmm spazz that sounds delightful

aroes I'd get some bucks off the cost of the massage (if you go back) for the mistake theymade...your time is valuable, just like theirs.

Thanks Lizkins. Bigger company ftw I think...this was a Yum Cha distributor that has a terrible reputation. I should have done my homework better before accepting the role.
Got a job interview tomorrow though, for double my usual pay. FTfuckingW!!

GOTD: Friends that only act like friends when you do what they want. When you do what you want, what makes you happy they hate you for it. That's not a real friendship if you ask me

Get it sorted out, and don't tell me you love me and then place mega conditions on that love. Disappointed as hell

was talking with a Sri Lankan friend about squatties the other day. She reckoned Malaysia had the grossest, dirtiest squat toilets of anywhere she'd been in Asia.

mixtress · Post by **mixtress** » Wed Mar 25, 2009 6:37 pm

that's just plain cunty

The chicks at my old work used to put the used toilet rolls in the sanitary bucket from Hygenex, the ones that say "only sanitary napkins and pads" on it. Now you can't even open the lid to make use of it cause they're all jammed in there.

I used to think it was just men who could be amazingly gross, now I find more and more that women can act like Neanderthals as well.

the crack fairy is sorry about the damage she can has to your teeth, but you mum should of warned you anyway, make sure you give a fake name at the dentist cause the feds will follow up when your dentist registers the cause of tooth damage as grinding. the coroner will be fucked off too cause it will be be harder to identify the raver generation from dental records.

FS, anyone under the age of 10 is most welcome to wear them and still be cool, when your little, practicality IS of the upmost importance innit?

however, adults are a different story entirely!
