Mrs P_F has gone to her Sister to help final prep before 1st Communion.
Iām in shorts & tee shirt, take the present down to car. Stop outside for a smoke.
Confused orderly comes up waving arms and saying something. I check, yes Iām in the smoking area. I do my standard English and smile thing.
Orderly says, come you late for sewing classā¦
Ouch. Possibly THE most hurtful thing EVER.
Itās turned me into a snowflake, Iām OUTRAGED.
Cvnts
you say that, when I flew into Amsterdam beginning of the year. Stood in the queue for Passport control and an amazonian sized Dutch immigration official says I can go and use the pensioners lane. I went across because it was empty not because I am bloody old
Polish family parties. We had 4 courses. We had communion cake kind of a fresh cream Blackforest Gateaux
Then they bring more food! Sadistic bstdsā¦
Mind you the homemade Kielbasa is amazing!
I thought it was a family thing but no.
Seems Poland simply have never heard of, and Leroy Merlin *think B&Q on steroids" just confirmed it.
Nowhere sells nor uses a standard English garden home. The flat thing for weeding not the other
Seriously. No wonder they thought I was a space alien.
So now I have to get one back here on Ryanair.
Ffs
Yeah I know just get the head pack with glasto returns etc but weird they arenāt sold
Iāve watched more YouTube than telly in the last five years. As a consequence, I am fertile ground for YouTube Premium, which Iāll happily pay just not to have to press āSkip Adā all the fucking time.
With that in mind, there should be a special place in hell assigned to the fuckers that embed their wank ads into the vid itself.
This place in hell should play nothing but Squarespace and Wix adverts.
Peer audits. Just been brought in. We have to audit our colleagues in our team. We are a small team. I reviewed mine today (on a none work day as I cannot find time in normal work day to do the blooming thing). So now I have to give feedback to a more experienced colleague who Iāve known a few years. She has to give me feed back. Fail, requires improvement, good and outstanding. Ffs. It will end in tears.
I think it was termed 360 degree appraisals a few years back. A jolly wheeze thought up by management consultancy firm - for a lot of cash, to develop open dialogue and trust between all levels of staff in an organisation. Itās a pile of pants. I always got great reviews, which I like to think was nothing to do with me deciding on pay and bonuses for staff. Nor anything to do with me trying to reduce pay and bonus awardsā¦I think you can see the flaw.
We were supposed to do them. Our HR guy had his passport in for renewal so I flew from Dubai to Galway for a 30 minute 360 review.
HR guy was a best mate appraisal was only 30 minutes because we were in The Keys pub by 3pm.
I even planned it over a weekend early May, saw a Saints game Saturday, played cricket Sunday & had to fly business.
They never bothered again, think my dinner & beer expense bill was about ā¬200
I think it comes from wanting to improve services but I think theyāve just copied what has been used before (managers auditing and giving feedback) to colleagues on same level in same team. I am going to give some feedback. See if they take on board what I say.
Middle son is on vacation with his wife for 3 weeks i Namibia I mentioned to daughter whether sheād heard anything.
This afternoon hes been singing across photos.
OMG. And itās made me effing jealous
