    Jumped up little hitler :mad:

    Tried to reason with him, I was doing nothing wrong just using the DTD vouchers I was issued with but he was having none of it.

    No chrome in sada westie today - the white sel/out of stock notice had been completely removed. I think the staff there get it. One of them told me as much.

    i got banned from a sadas because some jumped up junior. It took a very annoyed cs guy(whom i had many dealings with and was excellent i may say) and a email to the ceo to get it overturned. The jumped up idiots excuse was they didnt like my shopping habbits.

    Tomorrow night is the last night i'm spending in my flat. Removal van comes on saturday and i move in with the in-laws until we buy something else :eek:

    This particular sada will no longer be local to me so i'm not worried about my run-in tonight. I am sure that HO will make up for it ;)

  • Evening all :cool:

    Seen this posted on my FB earlier and thought I would copy it over here, it's probably been on here before but it's a goodie :)

    When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 Beers.

    A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.

    The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.

    The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full.. The students responded with a unanimous 'yes.'

    The professor then produced two Beers from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar effectively filling the empty space between the sand.The students laughed..

    'Now,' said the professor as the laughter subsided, 'I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important things---your family, your children, your health, your friends and your favorite passions---and if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full. The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house and your car.. The sand is everything else---the small stuff.

    'If you put the sand into the jar first,' he continued, 'there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life.

    If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff you will never have room for the things that are important to you.

    Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.

    Spend time with your children. Spend time with your parents. Visit with grandparents. Take your spouse out to dinner. Play another 18. There will always be time to clean the house and mow the lawn.

    Take care of the golf balls first---the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.

    One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the Beer represented. The professor smiled and said, 'I'm glad you asked.' The Beer just shows you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a couple of Beers with a friend. :beer:



    ...those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

    PRIDE

    There's a fork in the road, which way will you go
    You standing still or will you step into the great unknown,
    Is yours to decide, this is your life.
