On a CV? Justified looks like you've just discovered word and had a quick play around with it.
Justified is for Newspapers and Annual Reports. That's it.
And essays.
An old designer here used to justify EVERYTHING, despite repeated feedback that it just didn't work on the web. In the end I told the devs to just ignore any justified text and left align it, because he simply couldn't stop doing it.
Oh no its all fallen apart.
A shocking and unexpected development.
Not totally. But they wanted us to take a 10k! Paycut and be be on a better commission package, have the same targets as the other clowns, and still leave the headless sales manager in charge of major decisions that could greatly affect our income. The clown was asking me for a proposition email to send to a customer today, for example.
Not the role I had in mind. At all. They are hiring two generic salespeople who will be on exactly the same package as well. Insulting at worst, missing the point at best.
Not happy.
The first thing to say about this is it's definitely not cost-cutting.
Couldn't agree more, the one thing they aren't trying to do here is slash outgoings and con their own employees.
Still going to publish your payslip next year, Magic?
Ł70k a year was what you were claiming, lol.
What should I do? Bearing in mind this was my idea.
Meanwhile, they're asking for volunteers to train people on our work at another site. Not many takers given that's how most of the workforce lost their last job.
Leave with your other hotshot mate and set up your own company.
I can't believe none of us saw that coming. Magic.
Are they still hiring the two new engineers?
They're hiring a mirror to compliment their existing engineer headcount.
Yes. They wanted 3 but we said only two initially.
That mirror is busy in Snow White.
Let's get back to fonts.
I'm a Verdana man.
I remember deciding gardensoccer.com should all be in Verdana, including the forum, as a momentous day. What a life I've lived.
I'm a twit
Tell them that. If they've missed the point then they've missed the point. Why would you sign up to something that isn't what was discussed, particularly given it's a pay cut. "No thanks".
On a side note, our gaff is doing another reorganisation which means another head cut reduction. That's the third time in 4 years and a distraction of a seven thousand strong organisation.
Told us in a webcast out the blue and even the individual team leaders had no warning or further info. Smashing. Sweeping changes I suspect, but not much in the way of job losses. Annoying.
I was winding down Friday nicely and the fucking phone rang. 550km later and I'm just home and missed 1˝ of the two live games tonight
Definitely taking up the holiday option next week.
In the midst of trying to watch an England game this development at Magic's work has really brightened up my evening.
For knowing some of the competition is swimming in ineptitude or just for the lol factor?
I feel better now I've thought about it.
You're a positive fellow, I'll give you that. Absolutely blindly and insanely positive, but positive all the same.
You should have left when you had the chance.
Schadenfruede is a wonderful thing.

[BOYDY]Now now, that's being frightfully negative. Why don't you offer him a hug and we'll all join hands and sing some nice songs.[/BOYDY]
Nobody quoted me on the doubling salary thing right?
I'd need to earn 80k p/a to double my take home salary lol.
Gies a swatch o' yer payslip, big man.
Using my newfound clout, I have applied for a mighty student intership at a national-sized architecture firm.
That sounds like something mert would say.
Mert is the successful version of me.
There's a chance that I'm a soon-to-be 31 year old making fun of myself for hoping to get a lowly student job.

Mmm Banana.
The last couple of days has been interesting. I think once the emotion was taken out the decision to stick around was an easy one. I never thought working in a kitchen would be so stressful and it's not even the cooking side that makes it so.
That third picture is how Magic's marriage ends.
You look healthy mate. Nice to see.
Agreed, but lose the goatee Smiff.
Working in a kitchen was probably the most stressful job I've ever had, but I did enjoy it in a weird way.
Buy an iron.
I'm a twit
I quite like the goatee. Is she ok with it when you feast on her cunt?
I think that's the key. I've had some pretty stressful jobs but I never thought I'd be stressing about running out of eggs midservice.
So Smiff threatened to leave before bottling it and sticking around anyway. This place really does predict everything doesn't it.
I was meant to be in work at 830 today. Got pissed up last night and woke up at 930, woops. Also sent a facebook message at 3am to a random nerdy lad I went to school with berating him for not accepting my friend request. Fuck sake.
You forgot the part whereby I emerge with a stronger hand than I had before handing notice in.
Now it's on my head but I prefer that
What company do you work for Shindig? The line of work you're in sounds similar to what I was doing a while back.
Just rolled out of bed. Had an impromptu all day drinking session yesterday and feel absolutely dreadful. Really bad timing too, I've got so much I need to get done today.
I'm in the last week of my notice and it's glorious. Just had my haircut and going to some talk now. It's glorious outside as well.
