What is hacking you off today?

[Holy Joe]

Going into the office and sitting next to someone I used to try and avoid getting into the lift with because I find them so annoying.

Seems this hot desk malarkey is not really for me.

Can't you hot desk away somewhere else for the afternoon?

We're working at hot desks when we're in the office as well. I had a nice desk that was basically left for me. One morning someone else on the project had taken my desk. Up until then he had sat behind me, and knew that was "my desk".

He explained he had been asked to vacate his desk so that a team of testers could all sit together and decided that, instead of sitting next to the project manager, he would take my desk...leaving me the desk next to the project manager!

We have hot desking as well.

So I play a game with my team, we have 45 desks. We play Polkie Bingo, in other words I’m the first person in each day so the day before everyone puts the desk number in where they think I’ll be sitting the next day. Needless to say the boss wasn’t happy when I sat in his favourite seat.

Posted on behalf of @Tangled up in Blue. Barna, you may not be aware but the Cricketers pub has been shut down on hygiene grounds after scoring 0/5 on being tested by local authorities. It seems they have made changes now but will have to wait a couple of months to be checked out. (Found this in the Southend Echo).

Forgot to purchase c2c tickets in advance. Instead of costing me £8.80 for 2 adults to travel to Southend from Stanford-le-Hope today its gong to cost £17.60

That comes as a surprise, I suppose mere punters don't see behind the scenes but it never struck me as a partically grotty place conpared to some pubs. Remember they used to do liver & mash on matchdays for £1.50. My brother would have two, a bloody great plate of grub for three quid, bargain.

Pity I bulk at liver, never got the meal deal on offer.

Taking my dog for a walk this evening, turned the corner into my road and 3 women get out of a uber, one takes the last swig from a plastic bottle, then throws it about 10 meters away. WTF, I couldn't help myself but say "seriously". One of her chav friends turned around and said she's ignorant, my reply "I'd call her a lot worse". They then walked off into the sunset, plastic bottle still on the ground for some poor sod to pick up.

These were middle aged women.

BBC paying Katie Price my licence fee money for her to be on a show about her. When did it become okay for convicted low life to be paid to be on tax payer funded TV? Surely she is prime for "select" independently funded channels?

Exactly my point, but I have to pay my licence fee.

Why do people end every sentence with "Ya know wha' I mean?"
That twerp from Oasis does it a lot. Grr!
