So apparently the incompetence of management at the office truly knows no bounds. After the decision was made to let me go apparently the manager got sick and didn't file the paperwork until this week. So it took nearly a month to process my dismissal and I have to stay in this mess for another month until the contract runs out.

Holy shit that sucks.

How wonderful for you, G85! (Not)

I've just heard at our dog-training class that somebody is leaving cocktail sausages lying in the park at Abergavenny, laced with rat-poison and nails.  There are some sick people around.  I just hope it doesn't spread here.

OG, that is horrible! Some people certainly deserve a beating with a spiked stick!

I'm grumpy because I ordered a cover my my tablet and it does not fit. The description matched, but it is far too narrow. Now I have to return the one that come today and find another one.

What kind of sick fuck does that?? Wow.

I've googled the story, and found that it's essentially true, though the sausages contained only nails and not poison.  It seems this has been done in other places, too, and at one place antifreeze was used.

There was an attempt to blame it on Muslims, which seems bloody silly to me - but then why is it happening?

It sounds harsh but I've heard they have a problem with dogs running free in Abergavenny, particularly red ones.
I'm happy, hope you're happy too

I went about 30 years without having a cold, but I have one now, and had one in January, both caught on long-haul flights back home from Australia. As these flights are going to be a regular event if I want to see the family regularly, (spending the kid's inheritance in order to see the kid), I'd be pleased for any tips on how to keep other people's germs away.

Hurt horribly. My pain level has gotten up to 8 or 9 quite a few times.

Well, I will still get paid during that month so it's not all bad.
