Well yesterday was fun! I had an interview to work for a European MP then when I got back to work the bastards sacked me!!
Not that the interview had anything to do with it, I just detested the job and made no secret of it! (Oh yea and all the work that I wasn't doing!) Thing is the only reason I got sacked is cos I had a joke with someone that worked there on Friday cos everyone was runnin round like headless chickens tryin to get some work finished so our clients didn't know we were completely fucking up their work and I said "well it is friday afternoon and not many people can be arsed to do anythin" so the brown-nose fat ugly **** went and told our manager so I got called aside about that. Then in the meeting yesterday my team leader had told one of the other managers that I hated the job and it wouldn't matter where they moved me cos I'd still hate it (all this from a private "gettin to know you" session the team leader had with us when she started - and I didn't even say that, there was a team i wanted to work for!)
So here I am doin sod all and to be honest, enjoyin it! I have 8 episodes of 24 d/led to get through before I travel up to Middlesborough for an assessment centre which if I pass gets me a £24k/year job!!

Think they still let you buy AK47's and Uzi's in Texas as hunting rifles so it could turn into WW3 with very little encouragement. Neither is a very good choice for hunting anything but people really, well I guess they count.

ive just found a job in Riobamba Ecuador teaching english. i get paid $1.25 an hour and have to wake up at 5:45am in the freezing cold (we´re 3000metres above sea level) to have a semi cold shower. Although i must say im enjoying the work much more than my Network Engineer job in Australia, plus i can see a volcano erupting outside of my window right now

Oh and I suck as a Dj? Wow?? Like I have not heard that before in the years I have been spinning. I tell you what, the next time I spin, I will put you and Shaolin on the guest list and you two can walk up to me and tell me that. till then, fock off,
Shaolin may be a small guy but you don't scare me with that shit, you bitch. I'll eat your lunch if and when you do decide to put us on the guest list. LOL
And you're right I bet you have heard that you suck quite a bit which is something very foreign to my experience.

Eat my lunch?? Is that like "Your ass is grass and I am going to mow it?? or did you mean to say that you will be awe struck in my presence that you will want to "buy my lunch?"
see I never talk shit, so I am not too familiar with the art of shit talking ha ha
