I know working in healthcare you have no concept of that, of course.
How's your coeliac tripadvisor coming along?
It cost me £34 to wind the company up lol.
There’s a dodgy batch of heroin going round. After suspicions of some far worse contamination, it turned out it’s “only” mixed with spice.
Anyway, when it was thought to be laced with fentanyl an alert went out to the homeless shelters and hostels warning service users of the contaminated batch that has killed half a dozen people and nearly killed a lot more. The response? Absolutely buzzing there was some new drug on the streets and they all rushed out to buy it.

Wiping out heroin users would be so obvious I'm surprised nobody hasn't thought of mixing it all.
Homeless heroin users, no less. Dream come true.
I don't know what tinfoil hat selling website you've stumbled upon recently, but you sound like Taz before he fucked off at the moment.
Ah RIP Don. You would have thought/think that an all conquering Liverpool team would prove an irresistible lure.
Did he join a jihad or something? Was he, in fact, that Daniel Khalife guy? Did you know Daniel is an anagram of denial?
Israel/Gaza sent him completely over the edge. He always had issues though. The BLM/ebony stuff he trotted out for years was some deep-rooted shit.
It's ok to now guilt old people into getting the injection so you can get their house, but junkies are ok?
Please consider not using such stigmatised language.

Sorry, I should have said elderly.Please consider not using such stigmatised language.
Nurse!?!?
Maybe a big black guy seduced his tick ting and he never mentally recovered.
The day before my final consultation it's just been announced we've bought our biggest competitor lol.
Jesus, I thought you boasting about your wages was a lie but look what they can do as soon as you're off the books.
My partner in crime is unexpectedly out of action for the next two weeks. Rough calculations, but I reckon I've got to pump out 110 hours to get through the work. I'm in the hospital on Wednesday, so that's a casual nine twelve-hour days ahead of me. Merry Christmas.
Are you the co-host of Masterchef?

"collaborating with council colleagues"
Was tapped up for a job a while back but when it was finally advertised it was essentially the same salary as my current salary due to some internal arguing about pay. I said I only wanted to move from my current role for an uplift rather than a sideways move.
Just been announced the senior guy in my team has got it, he's on about 10k a year more than me and will have probably got an uplift on that. He does mental hours and a lot of long meetings etc, guess who's going be picking all that up for no uplift
Uplift, mate.
Being forced to take my accrued annual leave (19 days) during my notice period.
Can they do that?
Apparently so.
Does your holiday year run from Jan-Dec? How the hell do you have 19 days to spare?
I was saying them for potentially taking the days off for uni/working so hard to hit target I didn't have time to retire holidays.
Depends who asks lol.
Our lot's a bit like that. If anyone's in line for retirement, they're encouraged to take as much leave as possible rather than getting a big dollop of holiday pay at the end. Same goes for anyone returning from long-term sick. I'm sure there's probably some small number of days they'd pay out but I'm not bothered enough to find out.
I'm sure there's some people on our leave sheet still with double-figure days to take. I can't really understand that. Even if they're holding it back for emergencies, we've got emergency leave (separate to our regular leave quota) that can be taken.
If you don't use it, your employer can just say "tough shit, it's gone". They don't have to pay for you unused leave.
Of course you would know, Scrooge.
Yes daddy.
I've had it with the fucking Irish. They do everything verbally, everything informally, refuse to write anything down. Then they come crying when something goes wrong and expect recompense even though there is no record of any of it because they are an 'everyone knows everyone' country and expect that somehow to translate into international business. What a strange people.
You lot taught them well.
The service manager of my biggest contract is leaving.Thankfully I already know her replacements, but I feel like I'm gonna have to do more work now. Bad times.
Only a 12-month secondment, but people never seem to return from those.

Work lunch today. BBQ followed by bowling, billiards, laser tag, and arcades. Not sure how to feel about that. Can't be worse than being in the office.
That sounds hellish. In a meeting here the other day someone mentioned us all going hillwalking some weekend as 'team building'. Hopefully he falls down a stairs.
I figure I can just go to the arcades and play Street Fighter on my own for three hours.
Anytime anyone suggests anything like that, the women at my work jump over the ‘will we get paid if it’s a work thing’ and it never happens thankfully.
The only out of work thing I ever do is if it’s the pub for Christmas and summer holiday drinks.
I can count the hours towards my weekly hours whenever there is an event like that. Four hours for the lunch today and two for tomorrow's happy hour. After that I am off until Jan 2.
Only time it's acceptable is during working hours.
We had a Toby Carvery at lunch time today as our Christmas meal. They ran out of time to book an evening "event", thank Christ.
Who is it that actually likes those things?
Is it women again? I keep walking into traps that expose my misogyny.
Get in, get out, get home, get paid. Fuck everything else.
Women, yes (you sexist pig).
We typically do all day events for Christmas and one in the summer. People have the choice of having the day off and not participating (while still getting paid) and noone has ever taken it. Perhaps they're worried about retribution.
Perhaps you just employ a bunch of normal people who don't melt at the thought of having to go bowling or something equally fine.
On that positive note, AFF until 6th January. Hold it down for me, chaps
Some utter bell went to a team building afternoon bowling in Leeds once, our office is in Manchester and he lives in Liverpool, he got absolutely cunted, had to be helped onto the last possible train available to get him home then tried to submit it as overtime
