I call and you refuse everything I suggest, without even hearing me out, you then proceed to talk over me and generally be rude and obnoxious and then you have the nerve to wonder why I'm close to screaming down the phone at you? You people make me f*cking sick.

VR kicks ass!

Having a completely different set of moral values, interests, opinions etc from everyone else at work today. I made a bit of a faux pas at work today, largely because I expected somebody to be equally as willing to share their stuff as I am. Obviously, just because I'm willing to let people use my stuff, largely because it costs me next to nothing and I believe in "swings-and-roundabouts", doesn't mean everyone else has to but it p*sses me off that it's OK for people to take advantage of me but the minute I do it back, I get called out in front of everyone and made to look a like c*nt.

I'll now probably be the subject of office gossip and bitching for the next week or so because some of you f*cktards a) genuinely have nothing better to talk about and b) actually seem to enjoy the agro you cause by poking your nose into things that have nothing to do with you.

Just generally being tired and miserable.

And after speaking to the right people. I found out you are completely in the wrong. Hopefully a week from now the boot will be on the other foot.. Not only will it be on the other foot, but it will be a big f*cking boot with a f*ck off steel toecap on the end of it.

I'm going to enjoy this.

Technically sexy.

conversations as like this little exchange in texts:

Her: "Mark, whats the Political Party that is for abolishing the Human Rights act?"

Me: "I think you are talking about the Tories"

Her: "what? I thought it was the conservative party!!"

me: "..."

She also phoned me earlier to ask how to access Westlaw. She should not be asking anyone that by now... I very much doubt she has been going to the library to read all these cases, although that would explain where she was when she was absent from all the lectures and seminars.

Unnecessary complications on his part. Being told we were a bad idea in the club but then still going home with him because he's still my boy despite all of his fickle, childish games and I was wasted and wanted to listen to music with his friends. Being interrupted at 3.30am by a fire alarm and having to wait outside in the freezing cold in a trench coat and nothing else. Being woken up by his mother calling him from Paris to wake him up for his seminar at 7am. He's such a f*cking child.

People who feed pigeons.

What in flying f*ck is wrong with these spastics? Pigeons are vermin you unhygenic window-licking bell-ends, encouraging them is the last thing you should be doing. Do you think they'll f*cking starve if you don't give them the scraps off your barmcake? No, they'll just keep trying to nick my f*cking Greggs pasties, same as usual. Filthy f*ckers.

The banal conversation of the people around me.

"Does anyone remember Thundercats crisps?"
"OMG LOLOLOL YEAH!"
"And Space Raiders?"

Yes, but they were sh*t and not really worth remembering.

It's like one massive mongathon. I'm waiting for the inevitable Inspector Gadget discussion.

Scree

Every f*cking train to Hamilton was cancelled tonight cause of a fault in a line at Blantyre.
When they finally announced one heading my way, everyone headed to Hamilton/Larkhall got on it(including me) only to find out 3 stops later that they were having to re-route it to a station 45 minutes away by car from where i wanted to go.

So i had no money for the bus, my phone died and it looked like i was gonna be stranded.
Thankfully, some nice woman next to me offered me her phone to phone my mum. But i still had to wait an hour and a half for her to arrive, in the freezing cold TT_TT
And i'd been out since 8 this morning.
Only got back at half 7 - left Uni to go home at half 4

I'll trade, 5 our of the last 8 days in work, I've either been made late, had to pay for a cab to get in close to being on time or worse, paid for a cab but been late, still.

Its cost me about 40 quid, each morning its due to either not putting a large enough train on, the train service just being sh*t or them putting knackered trains on the line that shouldn't be in service.

It takes the p*ss.

F*cking french tosser. I can't believe he broke up with me and proceeded to pass out in my bed. I'm glad I punched him in the face to wake him up and get him to leave. I hope he gets mugged on the walk back to his halls. F*cking tosser.

I believe that legally speaking you're entitled to fifteen minutes for every four hours you work, although I'm sure someone on here is far better qualified to say what the exact figure is. It's something like that though, I think.

By law, all workers should receive at least 20 minutes break for any shift over six hours. "Young workers" (I've never received an adequate definition for "young workers from any official website, but I think it might only be teenagers) should receive a break of thirty minutes for any shift over four and a half hours. You also can't be required to work over 48 hours a week, and over 13 hours in a day.

When you click a link, and think it's not loading, and then just as you click it again, the new page loads, but there's a link in your exact mouse-pointer position and you accidently click that, and then end up somewhere completely random and unintended.

Today's my day as WLW. I found that out by taking ages to get onto 'zine, thanks to Digital Teletext being so terrible, and putting up with ITV for so long. However, I mistakenly changed channel (pressed the 'down' to change channels instead of pages), so I didn't see anything past the first page. Teletext is refusing to return there, and taking ages to do the refusal part anyway.
I wanted to know if the supereditors'd broken anything I'd said, and/or fixed my forgetting-to-put-titles.
