Er, maybe because they've got bills to pay & they want an "entry-level" position because they don't want the expectation of having to do an extra 25% of their hours in a week as it's "expected"?

i'm just ultra ****ed off and completely back to square 1
 
Canary Wharf Security who have just told me I can only smoke outside in a designated smoking zone. They've marked out a small area in red outside the big tower with 'Smoking Zone' painted on the floor.

WTF !!!! And by whose authority? MTS I might need your services. :p


If you spent millions of pounds on flash office with plenty of corporate branding would you want crowds of people furtively smoking their black cats, raffles etc. right outside the front door?

Smokers don't realize how lucky they are. You wouldn't be allowed to spend hours a week feeding any other addiction when you are supposed to be working.

Jo Whiley (not my choice for the office radio) for playing Weak As I Am by Skunk Anansie, I thought that abomination had been discarded into history's bargain bucket long-ago!
 
Having to wait 20 mins at the opticians for my appointment even tho I was there 15 mins early!!

And the uni cocking up my paperwork for my school placement AGAIN!
 
Well if you had arrived at the time yo were given you would've only waited five minutes, thus you can't really blame the opticians. And yes, I know I'm being pedantic.

Stupid cold, stupid college trying to chuck me out after a week, stupid **** putting the small spatula in the big bottle of green paint, and just for the hell of it stupid TV controllers for not having anything decent on tonight other than Heroes.

My appointment was at 10.20. I got there at 10.05. I didnt get seen to until 10.40. Thats what pi$$ed me off!
 
I know that, just couldn't resist applying their dodgy marketing message to your plight!

Best thing you can do is find a decent local independent opticians!

I went to one up Pitsea. They charge more than SpecSavers for an eye test and now they want to charge me a fortune as I want to have contact lenses.

They're meant to be much better than the chained stores as well!

It's actually illegal to charge for an eye-test!
My lenses are £12 a month for monthly disposables (with no solutions) & all after-care etc included!
