    Don't get drawn in when you visit work MrsM

    Line manger / boss was gutted when i handed in a 28 day fit note. I have said I am happy to help with letters etc as there are two serious disciplinary matters ongoing. I would not like the outcome to be jeopardised.

    Wages were a shambles when I arrived at lunchtime bit not my concern I even refrained from comment to the person processing

    I have spend the afternoon with paperwork and got my beans and soup this morning No Christmas puds rtc

    Need another wee trip out as I am feeling a bit stifled inside

    Google "contactless atm near me" and in theory it'll tell you where.

    Tried this, it brought up nothing near me.

    Fifth Anniversary
    Good afternoon to all, can I politely ask what is the best way to use 3 out of 30£spent in sainsbury? I find S quite expensive and I don't normally shop there but I was wondering is there a way to maximise this value? Thank you in advance

    It's very difficult leaving go isn't it.
    You have to keep telling yourself 'not my concern', but if you know people you just can't help but think of them.
    8 years on and when my assistant manager died I have had dozens of messages about it, I had to go back into work mode to organise!!
    Concentrate on eliting (SP?), it saved me in dark times.
    There is another world out there away from work, I could have gone on for another few years but I eventually played the sick card, and haven't regretted it.
    OK we can't have first class holidays in exotic climes, but I have my health, my sanity, my family and friends... what more do I need?

    I’m actually in a town, but the top result on google was London... over 200 miles away!
