Fierce_LiNk Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 I've just got home from a night out with Ine's work mates. Fuck, they're awesome. I'm pretty sure that I was the only English person there, and I'm not entirely English...frauding, brah. Anyway, they were awesome. We drank a lot, danced a lot, sang tunes, and all sorts. I'm sure it's part of foreign policy to only have good looking Europeans working at the company or something. I've drank quite a bit tonight. I'm pretty sure that I've lost all of my gains. :'( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serebii Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Late to the ineptitude of Parcel Force (after a week of being in customs, they sent it back to Japan) but just got this birthday present from parents. So amazing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nightwolf Posted August 24, 2013 Author Share Posted August 24, 2013 I went to Insomnia for the minecraft expo. It was awesome! Met Davechoas, bebopvox, Slamacow, Pedro. Briefly said hello to the guys at the yogscast. HNNGGG. So happy. Got some cool new swag from gametee and jinx too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beast Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 So I think I might be considered in getting a promotion (finally!) but not sure if I'd take it anyway as there are some pros and cons (pros being it's easy to move up the ladder, cons being the pay which is 10p more than I'm on). For the past couple of weeks and for the next couple of weeks, it's Back to School which, for retailers such as Sports Direct, shoe shops and stationery shops (I'm guessing), it's like Christmas, we'd make the most money out of this time. So it started off rocky as me and my manager kind of had words and she was kind of pissing me off but then my manager tells me that she'd consider me to be put on Level 3 (which is a Supervisor level) if she felt I could handle the pressure and proved myself. Challenge accepted! I more or less took charge of a department, served multiple customers at once, more or less told a few of the staff what to do and where to go (which they didn't mind because they kept on coming to me asking what they should do)...it was a pretty awesome day, I actually enjoyed it even though it's one of the busiest days I've ever had at the job. I think I handled everything extremely well. Here's hoping tomorrow will be the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 I got the nicest ever customer compliment! It got sent to Head Office who sent it to every single store in the UK. Slightly embarrassing but so cool, this is what it said: Aww! I thought it was so nice! I remember the family as well, they gave me a Subway lunch (it was a Planes Kids' Pak because the kid wanted me to have one). I'm made up! I also had the balls to ask for a girl's number but that's for another thread! I am tempted to travel over there just to buy a pair of shoes from you. Seriously, you rock, Animal! We genuinely need to meet one day. Any chance you might come to a meet sometime? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Why is more money a 'con'? It's literally only 10p more than I'm being paid now and I'm part-time. Supervisors are only on four more hours than I am on right now. In the end, they don't really make much more than I do. Presume it's an 'effort vs reward' thing. Yeah, it's like more responsibility for more or less the same pay. Kind of makes you wonder whether it's worth it in that regards but in another way, it's good because it could open potential doors. I am tempted to travel over there just to buy a pair of shoes from you. Seriously, you rock, Animal! We genuinely need to meet one day. Any chance you might come to a meet sometime? By all means, come down! I'll be happy to see you, haha. It all depends on the time at work and if I can make it in general but there will be a chance I could come one day!

Eenuh Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Going home tomorrow! Can't wait to see my family again, but even more so my dog and cat. Missed them! It is going to be a very busy week with my sister's wedding on Saturday. Will have to help with lots of preparations, plus Tuesday I will go shopping with my sisters for wedding clothes (and to have dinner together), Wednesday I am meeting up with one or two friends for a meal, Friday I am meeting up with three other friends. And have a haircut at some point, finish a drawing for someone who is retiring, finish a canvas my sister will be using on her wedding for people to sign and create a house out of candy as a gift for my sister. Busyyyyyy! Looking forward to it all, though I do get worried about traveling there (especially as it is the first time I am doing it alone). But it will be nice to go back for a bit. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Payment terms on mine are all either 7 or 14 days unless otherwise agreed. Invoice due reminder 7 days after it is due and then it starts building interest in lines with the Interest Act 19XX (which has a far more fancy name than that).
