EEVILMURRAY Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 On what are they basing their claims on? Were you just just tired one day?
The fish Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 On what are they basing their claims on? Were you just just tired one day? I got what I think was really bad food poisoning, and was in bed for two days. As I started vomiting black liquid, I asked them to take me to a doctor. They did, but one of my bosses did all the talking (in Turkish) so I have no idea what they were saying. I personally have never encountered a hangover that causes someone to vomit for two days, and beyond those two days, I didn't miss a single lesson during my contract.
EEVILMURRAY Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 You went to a doctor who didn't speak to you?
The fish Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 You went to a doctor who didn't speak to you? They didn't speak English, Fatih acted as an interpreter. But now I'm questioning how...accurate his interpretation was...
EEVILMURRAY Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 They didn't speak English And this dude was practising... in England? I know they say the NHS is going downhill, but that is mighty dodgy. I don't think this will help your case at all.
Eddage Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 And this dude was practising... in England? I know they say the NHS is going downhill, but that is mighty dodgy. I don't think this will help your case at all. Dude, The Fish is teaching in Turkey, he's been there for ages and has mentioned it numerous times! The property I had lined up for next year has just fallen through, means I have about two and a half weeks to find a new place to live, I am not impressed right now!
EEVILMURRAY Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 Dude, The Fish is teaching in Turkey, he's been there for ages and has mentioned it numerous times! This is what I get for believing the location name
Fierce_LiNk Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 This is what I get for believing the location name If we believed everything we read on that side of the screen, you are genderless. Or rather, you are a full stop.
Magnus Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 If we believed everything we read on that side of the screen, you are genderless. Or rather, you are a full stop. Dude, that full stop represents his penis. Don't be rude.
The fish Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 I was in Turkey, but I've been back in the UK for a couple of months - this incident is the latest step of my on-going quest to get my missing ~£200 from February.
EEVILMURRAY Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 If we believed everything we read on that side of the screen, you are genderless. Or rather, you are a full stop. I knew I should've specified the serious answers... Bloody kids, I thought you'd be able to read between the lines. Dude, that full stop represents his penis. Don't be rude. You really do some out with some random shit at times .
Ellmeister Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 I've just been informed of what they've done to Officer Jenny in the anime. She's gone from the sexy TO THIS?! WHAT THE FUCK?! You really do some out with some random shit at times . Couldn't resist :p
EEVILMURRAY Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 Couldn't resist :p [They could've chosen a kettle which actually looked black, instead of dark brown] I was expecting one of my posts referenced to illustrate the hypocrisy, but not one which makes a valid point of the desecration of a cartoon character. You can do better than that.
Ellmeister Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 It was two pages back, I couldn't be bothered to find anything else.
McPhee Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 I may have just been royally shafted. Not wanting to go into the long version, I want to head to Uni to study Brewing & Distilling next year at Heriot Watt. To get on the course I need to do Access to Science. I applied for the Access course over a month ago and have spent most of that time chasing the college up. In order to do the course I needed to drop to part-time hours at work. I had to sign a new contract by last Thursday. After much chasing they told me I had a place and should go ahead with signing my new work contract; written confirmation would be in the post by the end of the week. Today I got a letter. It read; "Dear Mr McPhee Thank you for your application for the above programme. Due to high demand we are currently operating a waiting list. A decision regarding further course places and interviews will be made by the end of August. If a place becomes available in the meantime I will contact you to arrange an interview. I apologise for any inconvenience caused as a result for this delay. Yours Sincerely, [Name Here] Course Co-Ordinator" I am so livid with them right now. Reading between the lines, I won't be getting a place on that course. If they had told me this when I applied then I would have applied elsewhere. If they'd told me this last week then I'd still have a full-time job. Instead they repeatedly lied to me and have left me with a massive problem. Not only do I not want to wait another 12 months, but my savings won't allow me an extra year of part-time work without me running out of money while I'm at Uni (unless I can get some well-paid work over the summer months). I'm now looking to see what alternatives there are. So far, no other local colleges offer the required modules. So yeah, basically my local college just ruined my future plans for my life. What a good day this is. Back to the drawing board I go...

Back to the drawing board I go... As I'm feeling particularly litigious at the moment, want to sue them?
Magnus Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 Try making a fuss. If they promised you a place they should honor it, and if you're lucky they'd rather let you in than have to deal with you.
MadDog Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 Things are just so hard at the moment, like really really hard, and I just can't handle it. I just feel so close to totally shutting down, and I feel like I have nobody to turn to. I just don't know what to do, and it's getting too much for me to deal with. The last week or so has been the worst period of my life, easily. I don't want to talk about much, i just feel like this'll make help me get it out abit. :'(
Magnus Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 It'll get better, whatever it is that's wrong. We're here if you ever need to rant or feel like you need to talk about anything.

Or on chat? PM someone you trust? (If PMing a stranger about your worries would help, message me?) Everything comes to an end...both good periods and bad. Nothing lasts forever. Hope you can find some comfort in that, and that things get better for you soon
ReZourceman Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 MadDog, you can do it. Player pimp. Makes me sad to see you post your troubles. I hope you rise soon. xxx
Ellmeister Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 C'mon MadDog you can do eeet! Hope you better soon
