    Sorry to hear that Andy....
    You know though, that sadly it's just pure jealousy that causes such bitterness. It takes balls to move jobs in these climes, and not everyone has them.
    S*d them anyway, like you said people move on - get over it!

    I too have had a majorly stressful week, mind-games and politics galore!! It's a worrying time, but at the end of the day - it's just a job - not life or death ;)

    Hope you enjoy the weekend. OH treating us to a curry tonight so I've got the beers on chill!! :beer:

    Andy - i quite agree with Mac - it's all down to jealousy. Sad gits!!! You've got the right attitude so balls to them. Hope you have a fab weekend :D

    Danko aka the beetroot :p I bet you've had the fuss you deserve today. Good going with the vouchers and vino too ;) Exciting times ahead :T

    Catchooky - have you put something in your OH's tea? :p He's on a roll! Big congrats on the course too, that's great news :T

    Minnieme - i am dead jealous of your amazing PaDs but very pleased for you and our mad totaliser of course ;)

    I've actually managed 2 PaDs today:

    £10 Friend
    £45 Next

    TOTAL PaD £55
    One step at a time ;)

    Awww, glad to hear they gave you a good send-off. Enjoy your well-earned rest now - it's meant to be good weather I think! :T

    Yes, I'm fine thanks Danko. Had a good day yesterday, when I realised that they value me more than I'd thought :o
    My workload had more than doubled in the past year (salary has not of course :rolleyes:), but I did ask for it. Now I've asked for help and got that too - so all's well.
    I just want to climb the ladder, but don't like all the b*llocks that goes with it.....
    Hey ho Friday - 10 mins to kiddiwinks bedtime - then crack open and pour!!!:beer:

    Evening lads and lasses. :hello:

    Had a shee-ite week at work as I handed my notice in :( Most of my colleagues have been great and really happy for me but two or three have been really critical and nasty about the whole thing. I'm a traitor, are you sure you will be able to do that, why are you doing that when its good here etc etc. Knobs. :mad:

    I'm a tough cookie like, but it does your head in after seven hours a day of it. I've always been super supportive when people have left, its just a !!!!!!! job at the end of the day and a contract. The world still turns and people move on eventually to things that they think will suit them better :confused: I guess I have just found out who my friends are!!

    Anyway, needed a little RANT. Sorry! Lol, very rare for anything to get me down. But, Its the weekend - woo hoo!! And there's football, tennis and cricket on. TFI Friday.:beer: Just gutted I aint going to V this year - but it was on credit card for the last two years :o Next year I will save up with PADs and go again.

    Mac, I only have £1 to add to today. Payday coming Tues so will add some more decent numbers then.:j
    Aww Andy, so sorry to hear about some bloody bitter nobs, it ain't on. Just ignore them. You're moving on to bigger and better things as part of your career development. Just concentrate on the good stuff :D I had the same but with the whole 'well teaching ain't all that secure blah blah' - screw them! I could sound really Motley Crue but I won't ;) :rotfl:

    Enjoy the last couple of weeks and you're holiday and focus on the future! Bevoirs this evening! :beer:

    Hope so for the fab weather! Think the plans to go camping for a few days to Snowdon or somewhere Wales way so hope for some sunshine! :D

    Just focus on the good stuff! Hope they since sense and offer you lots more money for your additional responsibilities. Normally, if given extra work, they should review your salary after a 6 or 12 month perid - raise it!

    Hope you're enjoying your well deserved vino. I feel a bit pished and I'm only on my 2nd glass! :rotfl: But saying that, they are rather large glasses... :rotfl:

  • Back from holiday.
    What an awful journey getting back.
    Anyway, I've read a little of this thread to catch up.
    I am now totally petrified of Macgirl :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    So, my PAD for today is just 21p

    Please note that this is two digits and contains no decimal points.;) .

    Due to the holiday, my debt has temporarily increased - though I won't be filling in the exact amounts until I get the bills. It will probably end up meaning that my debt has remained static for a month by the time all the adding and subtracting gets done over the next couple of weeks.
    At least I have come back to nearly a thousand pounds worth of cheques on my doormat so I can start sorting it out once they have cleared.

    I like a laugh on here but I don't take my debts lightly. So much so that I will be back on the work treadmill at about 7.30 Saturday morning.

    Glad to note that SueP got something sorted out about the bully at work.

    Welcome back Paul, hope you had a good time!
    Great news about the cheques you came home to, that will please Macgirl if they are included in your PADs :rotfl: shes not to be messed with!
    I dont envy you being at work tomorrow that early - even though i will probably be awake as OH is at work and always wakes me up!!
