It was a shared event with a friend who has the same birthdate as me. She was organising the whole thing and it was going to be at her place, but due to unforseen circumstances she had to cancel :( I'm still going to visit her on our birthday and bake her a cake cos I'm rad :D :p

Awww that sucks.. You are very rad! Hopefully it turns out alright for both of you!

It totally IS. I hate having to do it too - especially when you have to talk to someone 'important':(

Yeah :( I tried my best to not sound rude in my original company complaint, but basically I was after a "please explain" since the paperwork I mailed them months ago never got processed. They called me while I was at work but as it came through as "private number" I decided not to answer it and they didn't leave a message. I just read the email they sent back saying they tried to call me, then "here is the form you asked for" :uff: No actually I didn't ask for any forms you twat :o I couldn't think of a polite and productive way to reply so I haven't gotten back to them yet. I'd like to call them some time when I'm home but their hours are basically only when I'm not at home :uff:

Our arrangement is that we get one day off every 4 weeks. We work 40 hours a week and get paid 38, then on our days off we get paid as normal. With administration staff, we get to choose which day we want off (doctors for example, are told which days to take) and we can accumulate up to five days worth of hours at a time before they start getting cranky. It's a good opportunity to get stuff done that can only be done during business hours from Monday to Friday, also to do nothing, whatever :)

Yes, yes, I think I remember you telling us something like that previously as well :D

Oh dear lord!

Ok so I have to start this story from the beginning. Many moons ago, a mate of mine started a website dedicated to metal in Brisbane. It was mostly about the forum and the gig guide and it kept everyone informed. It didn't take long for everyone to know everyone else, and when all the kiddies turned 18 everyone already knew who they were when they were allowed to go outside. The talk on the forum wasn't the polite and friendly type we see here. There was a lot of wit, trolling, serious discussions, derailing, repeat. After many years, I'm not entirely sure what happened, but suddenly the forum went quiet.

Several days ago, the same friend who started the website posted a video which was basically bagging out our current prime minister. Currently sitting at 195 responses, and right now I see nothing but goats, orca genitalia, tags and ManowaR videos. I feel like I've gone back in time some 7 years. The best thing I've seen today :D
