Twenty minutes before we were due to close this evening who should walk into the shop? Bloody Emma! She came running up to the counter looking all panicked and babbling "I've got something to tell you!" So of course I enquired as to what was wrong with her now, and she started going on about how she had taken a load of pills and about how her ( Read more... )

Bleh! I don't want to go into work today because the thought of a twelve hour shift on a really busy day stuck with a really lazy cashier makes me all depressed. I'm thinking backlogs of 150+, I'm thinking capturing errors that will cause me lots and lots of problems and I'm thinking cash differences. But most of all I'm thinking of having to ( Read more... )

So yesterday at work turned out to be a nightmare, although the day started off well enough. We were really busy with the football and everything and yet we managed to keep the cash differences low which was good. And we must have taken about 800+ bets, which doesn't sound like much but which was actually quite a lot for our shop.

How do you really piss off your local authorities?

( You ask them lots of difficult questions of course! )

Jesus Christ! I can't believe how badly the Lions are playing! Little Williams is bloody carrying the team (or at least he did, in the first half) and what's up with Jonny?! I begin to fear for what's gonna happen down in New Zealand ( Read more... )

Overtime always sounds like a good idea when you sign up for it, but why is it that you always forget just how much you actually hate having to do it? A whole day wasted taking bets from people you just want to slap for being stupid lazy gamblers. I really hope Luton pops in for a chat today, I think I'm definately gonna need the distraction!

No, you know what? I have worked out a word to describe how I feel right now - hurt. I am not angry, I'm not even all that weary, but I'm just bloody hurt. I just want to take these council people and say to them "I've been patient with you throughout all of this, and I have remained cheerful in the face of constant rejection concerning getting ( Read more... )

How the hell could the British public be so bloody stupid AGAIN ( Read more... )

I cannot quite believe how difficult it is proving to be to find an animal shelter that has any kittens or old house cats in their care. The only place we haven't tried is the Wood Green Animal Shelter, and that is because I refuse to pay a £50 'donation' for a bloody cat; especially not when I'm going to be giving it a loving home and all the care ( Read more... )

Why oh why are all my job interviews in stupid hard-to-get-to places?!

And why isn't your phone turned on lutonairport so I can beg a lift off of you? Hmm?
