    Well my payslip came £95.11 overtime to add, woop!

    I have had a NIGHTAMRE couple of days at the second job, someone effectively harassing me where the others are getting away with murder. Spoke to boss about it today and how unhappy I am with it, then said person is at it worse today and I kinda flipped :o

    I didn't swear (SO proud of myself) but said person got me riled, I told them exactly why I wasn't happy but they kept pushing, then proceeded to follow me about as I packed everything away and left early.

    Was so tempted to jack it in as it's making my life miserable but to be honest I really need the money at the moment

    And then I though why should I let some idiot force me out of my job, which even though it's a scabby job I'm rather damn good at!!! Phoning boss on Monday to tell her exactly what happened and how I feel about it all (again :rolleyes: )

    Heehee, the look on their face though when they realised I wasn't going to take any sh*t - I don't think anyones ever stood their ground like that with them before :j

    I made £1 today on a Lighspeed survey. Went bowling with my niece and nephew and got a game free which would have been about £17 for the four of us (mum too). I'm not gonna add that though as we were only going to have two games so the third was an extra

    Well done you !!!!! I have had this before and stuck at it and felt so proud of myself for doing so :o and standing your ground is the best thing you can do. You are doing everything the right way so well done and you CAN'T let her win, just be calm and patient and that will drive them ever more insane as they are not getting you to bite!!!

    Hi everyone,
    I'm sorry I've not been on here very much the last few weeks.
    I went to the Doctors Tuesday because I thought I could feel a lump in my right breast. The Dr confirmed there was something there and has refferred me to the specialist clinic at the hospital. :(

    I am absolutely terrified and haven't been able to function properly since Tuesday. 've gone about my normal life going to work and sorting te kids out, but I just feel utterly depressed.
    The Dr said I'm at low risk because of my age, but it's just taken over my life completely.

    I'm so terrified. :(

    Bless you Noggin, I am sure everything will be fine, but I know that is so very easy to say when I am not the one with the lump. I know I would be going insane with worry and it actually shows how strong you are being that you are till functioning and sorting out your family the same as usual. You are a star, keep us up to date and try your hardest to push it to one side even just for a few hours a day :grouphug:

    had £13 tesco clubcard vouchers through this morning i always use them for food as the deals are never any good to me and with 7 kids the money off the food bill is a godsend

    have you thought about selling them on ebay, they tend to reach about 3xs the prie the amount you are given.:confused:
