Have a great Birthday Dazz.

Work decided to back-track on my holiday once again, this time saying no chance. As July is the last month for tax credits re-newals etc, and they need maximum staff on all phones. As i said in the meet thread, i don't care anymore what they say so i am still coming to the meet, just probably will get one huge disciplinary when i get back. Union reps say i will win if it comes to that. And, in other news. I signed off last Thursday from JSA, should have had all relevent stuff by Wednesday, none of which has shown up. I call Benefit Enquiries, they say i am still signed on and to call the sign-off number, of which i do. They say i have signed off, and the B E is the place to solve my issue. One call back, they say call the local. It seems no-one wants to take the blame.

Sounds perfect, let us know the cost and all that so i can sort out fundage.

Aye, need a bed as well. Had all my shifts from work, and because July is a busy period for credits (deadline is 31st July for those claiming and have yet to renew, you never know. You may get me on the phone) they have turned around and cancelled my leave. Saying they need everyone in to man the phones. They said there is no chance of being allowed to go, and if i do go then i face a disciplinary. So, with that said. I'm still coming to London that weekend, sod them to be fair. All this messing around after i had confirmation of being allowed to go and i can't be asked no more. I'll take the disiplinary when i get back

I got real drunk last year, not again though.

Believe me when i say this, but this will be all you will see me on upon release. Got the day booked off for release as well

It should be fine, as long as the phone is able to work in the UK there shouldn't be any issues.

Yeah, it is a great game to play. I do go on the mobile whilst travelling to and from work, setting tactics and training sessions. Many have said, you don't have to like football to like this game. Look at me, i'm not a huge football fan and i've been playing for many seasons now.

I know you need to use +44, which is the area code for the UK. Texting would be easier, as Eenuh said. It would be expensive calling if you ain't got a UK phone.

That was the time i was around last year, met up with Goafer and Rez around 10am. I'm for that, like to chat to you all as such.

I'll be around from 9am, if anyone wants to meet early. Shall let you know my location, and possibly number if you so wish to meet earlier.

Around 16 peeps last year, which is excellent. You can count on me being there, i decided that work or not i shall be there. Hopefully no cycling peeps this year, or annoying helecopters .......or ginger kids attempting to make friends with his football.

Shizen, stuffed the opposition today 5-0.

I've only once called them, and that was with a fight breaking out near the pub. Didn't take the police long to arrive, and they did arrive in 2 vans and a squad car. Just to break 2 people up, dear oh dear.

Wow, gets even better with each passing day. More to meet and greet, which is always a great thing.

That was the plan last year, didn't occur though.

I'm taking October 21st off work. Probably need a vacation after all them calls i'll be taking. And September 21st as well, for obvious reasons. (Gears 3)

I've thrown my excuses in already, and they worked. Me - "I'm booked to go to London for my 25th in July on the 15th-17th" Boss - "Sorry, no holidays for July. Need all staff in, so all holidays cancelled" Me - "Hmm, i payed for it before i was offered this job, HR and recruitment confirmed i can go" Boss - "We shall see, but no chance of going" Later that day Boss - "Is the holiday refundable?" Me - "No it isn't unfortunetly" Boss - "How much have you spent" Me - "£175" Boss - "Ok, you can go on holiday. I'll authorise it now" So it worked for me. Just need Rez to get the hotel confirmation booked, and all done. Transport booked up already though.

Best get that ass into gear. I'll be heading up on the Friday, so i don't know what you want to do really.

I ain't had any issues, i just havn't found the time to visit here. Probably due to the new job and all that.

Get my Dad the same present(s) every year, he knows it and always acts "surprised" when i give him his presents.

Whats to say these guys wern't behind the PSN hacking??

I think you summed up how my work were resolving this on Wednesday perfectly.

Well, first week of work nearly over. Overall, it's great. People are friendly, easy to get along with and i'm having a great time overall. After yesterdays slight "hiccup", which i explained in the "bad stuff thread", everything has been sorted out (except the 8am Saturday starts, still to be sorted a little). Which is all good now, and i can have the weekend to myself without worrying about anything. Oh, and i also joined the Union as well. Get 6 months free membership, and they listened to my issue with Saturday 8am starting, with me being 15 minutes late. They said as i informed the staff i'd be late every Saturday shift i work, and they know i am limited to public transport and still took me on. They said if i am sacked, it would be unfair dismissal.
