Just to elaborate, I hate bus drivers! Especially school bus drivers. The bugger sped right past me and Zoe so we tried to beat it to Sainsburies and lost, got the bus into town and then the bus into school...missed Biology pretty much but that doesn't matter 'cos the yoghurt didn't work anyway.

Bus drivers are very annoying. I had to run for my second bus three times this week. Just cause they don't need to be at the final place on time doesn't mean other people don't need to be at their place on time. My second bus comes 15 minutes after my first bus is meant to arrive at the same place.

Other than that my life is going awesome (happy Geoff)

Sometimes The Way People Think Drives Me Crazy!!!!!

[chrispenycate]

It's normally the way most people don't do so that did that to me some time ago.

[mirinda]

*sigh* Yes....why is life so complicated...

[tangaloomababe]

Its called "growing up" The complications don't go away either Mir, they just change to suit the age!!!

[mirinda]

Thanks for that bright light at the end of the tunnle tanga.

Still happy Geoff

JUST STAY ON THE WIRE FOR A FEW MORE SECONDS SO I CAN SHOOT YOU!

to add context - there is an electricity (or telephone) wire that runs from just beside my window off to the poles and then the wider nations. Upon this wire birds will sometimes sit, but each time I get my camera out of the window to shoot them they fly off!

GRRRR RED TAPE!!!! I got told on friday that I had my old job back and that head office in Melbourne was going to send me an email and I had to complete some online thing and then go in and fill out more paper work. When I got the job last time it was much easier than this.

yah - in the old days it was turn-up ask and be hired or refused on the spot
now its fill in form A section B, but only if you are under 45 if you are over its section C - then you have to send this off - wait a month and then fill in section A1-10 of form B. Then Form C will be..................
its a nightmare (worst part is that nobody ever looks at the darped things!)

[Wybren]

It is really stupid, cause the woman working in the section at the moment is really sick, and now can only do 1 day a week so they just get casuals, so by the time I get in there it is going to be a HUGE mess and I will have to spend weeks reorganising the place, and getting to know the new kiddies and sussing out if I need to use the whip on them or not

Gotta love Human Resources, it seems half the time now the person hiring you has nothing to do with the job you'll actually be doing they're just professional interviewers. Applying for the job I'm in now took about 4-5 months from first applying to actually starting work and I've had to reapply since (selection criteria, interview the lot) to keep working in a job I'm already doing because of contracts.

[Wybren]

Its bloody stupid. My dad had to do the same thing last year to change from being PT to FT. My husband had apply online through an outside source to get the job he is in now, even though his boss already told him he had the job, Just so that it was seen to be done properly.

[Quokka]

Yep, at least my reapplying was because we've switched to long term contracts so it's sorted for a bit but another workmate has now had to re-apply 3 times for the job she's already in and even worse we had a worker apply, get the job and start working and then a few months later fail to get the job the second time around! If it was the bosses doing the hiring you'd think they were using it as an excuse not to keep her but it was all through HR and the boss wasn't even involved, she just had a bad interview on the day. She was pretty understandably insulted and in the end we lost a good worker because of it.

[Hilarious Joke]

Hooray for working casual! I decided I wanted this Monday off, and was granted, with only a week's notice! At the moment the law firm's going through a bit of a quiet period so they don't need me as much. But still!
