Today is the slowest day ever. Plus what a slow drag this month has been.
24 more days until payday
especially when your online bank account
tells you how little cash you have until the next payday
I actually hate payday. Once a great day
now it's pay this pay that. Stick that in that account and wait for the next one.
Changing jobs is always a pain with this too. The new one will be paid last working day of the month. Bit rubbish that.
2 months until bonus pay day... not as good as when i worked in the city
but this one is at least a regular %
I got my bonus in my last pay it was appalling this year. They send this big long email saying
the company has had a terrible year, we will cancel the staff party, freeze recruitment and payrises.
Which is fair enough, until a few weeks later when they sent another email saying thank you all for your hard work and assistance with the new restrictions............oh by the way we just bought out another company... have a great day got to go now. bye!
Ex colleague of mine moved from Leeds to a bank in London (1990's)
had a fantastic first yr and got a 1.4million bonus ... :-|
Good man... get the saving done now as when you have kids it won't happen for yrs
Oh man, cant you at least spunk some on brasses and eddie bauer shirts for old times' sake?
While I'm happy that f has found a good woman, job, etc, I do sort of miss his reports of his
somewhat chaotic lifestyle and his maudlin, post-hooker self-loathing and buyer's remorse :hehe:
It does seem like the last remnants of any awimbers I can live vicariously through have settled down
Even Billy has swapped the skinny jeans for elastic pregnacy pants :-(
I still suffer from the occasional weird purchases.
I have have over 10 new hockey jerseys in my wardrobe.
And my latest weird one is buying old hockey cards on ebay :hide:
Seemed like only yesterday Rich was in training to be a doctor splashing people in his car.
Now he is the top quack and drives a BMW Mercedes-Benz.
I know. I'm hoping someone has a midlife crisis to liven things up a bit.
You must be in that ballpark by now, surely?
Oh yes, but it's hardly the same as a dead eyed 17 year old romanian
I'm 38, I reckon you're due another lap around that circuit before me
Out of interest, does your missus know about your erstwhile hooker habit?
Or have you wisely spared her that somewhat grubby detail of your past? :hehe:
f**k that for a game of soldiers
I mean it would have been romantic in one sense - Pretty Woman and all that.
But a bit icky in pretty much every other sense.
What did the card say? :hehe:
Congratulations from all the Brasses down Kings Cross
Fayysh, wat eees de "brasses"-ah?
She did but I got rid of it sharpish. It did have LOL written on the envelope
Tony would've put looooooooooooooool
surely?
