    god Zed where do you find em!!!! That made me giggle.

    Morning all!!! Not much to tell from the pania diaries today sadly! been up since some unearthly hour, having a bit of trouble sleeping lately.

    Off for a very long drive to colchester today which will be nice as is mainly cross country, lots of relaxing time and in the days of money my ideal method of relaxing was to go and drive and drive and drive!! Loved it!!

    Then back this avo for some more work but with my trusty kettle near to hand!!!

    Hope everyone on here has a fab day and see you all later!! xxxx

    From pain to pleasure oin 0.65 seconds, the rollercoaster life of a dfw!!!


    Well guys, got my pay statement today which shows the amount of commission i will receive in my pay at the end of the month.This gives me a rough idea of how much I will be paid total at the end of the month. Every month that i get these i panic before opening it, is it going to be an ok month, is it going to be totally carp? that is how much i rely on the commission to make for a good month!!

    sooooo, I opened it. expecting to see the £600 mark... to see the figure
    84.12!!!!!!!!:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

    I felt sick I went sweaty i sat with my head in my hands saying i'm screwed, i'm totally screwed. :o

    I called the lady that does our payroll and left a very pleasant message saying "thanks for the pay statement but is there anything missing?!:confused:

    Looked back and i had clicked on the february tab instead of the january tab!!:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :doh: :doh: :doh: :wall: :doh:

    Suffice to say all will be ok, tight, but ok!!:D

    Christ the rollercoaster world us DFW's are in hey!!

    I managed to put £400 by this month, safely lodged in mums bank account so i couldn't be tempted to answer the call of desperate OH's!!! I'm not going to need it back!!!! :j am going to keep it until i know how much i will be paid in feb (expecting that to be a tight one to as not much business coming through from december yet!) and if i don't need it will use that towards the 15k challenge and make a nice lump sum overpayment off one of the tiddly debts, probably the nationwide card. phew the relief!!!:rotfl:

    right, off to catch the post office before it closes. back soooooooon

    Hope everyone is ok in the wonderful land of lewis!!!!:D

    Good afternoon - eek that must have been a scary moment! :eek: Glad it's all ok for you though, and that's great that you've managed to put some aside. :T

    Had a bit of a Pania-style butt-kicking day today - we had a team meeting at work and I had lots to say which I made sure got said! :o:D Probably won't make much difference in the long term but it made me feel better!! Kinda on the look out for a new job anyway but I may as well try to improve things a bit while I'm still here!

    Anyway, off home.. speak later :) Oh yes, and PM me your site too! xx

    Hiya squirrel hon, fab for you sticking up for yourself at work!! pania style butt kick i love it!! am i that much of a tyrant:rotfl: and you never know it may make a difference, people will pretend it hasn't but somewhere an ear will have sat up and listened.;)

    I'llPM the site a bit later if ok, i have to get out for a run or i'll sit here and mould to the shape of the chair!! Mould in both senses of the word!! :rolleyes:

    Yep it was a scarey moment!:o very scarey! you know when you get those moments wher you just sit there because you know theres nothing else you can do? THAT WAS ME!!!!:rotfl: all ok now though and I got laughed at by work:D
    SOOOOOO chuffed with myself that I managed to get through chrimbo, new year and over 5 weeks between paydays with money left over, 2 weeks to go exactly til next payday. Got a little bit left but that is earmarked for petrol and solely petrol!! Going to see no room for old men with free seefilmfirst tickets tomorrow. OH grumbling at the popcorn and coke ban! ce'st la vie!:D

    so, in a slightly better than good mood i am going to go run my energies off and do some work when i get home. Lots to do and hoping to catch up this eve ready for a fresh day tomorrow.

    ISOM hope the run went well.
    Hypno hope you had a good day at work hon. has she let on she knows it's you yet? :confused: xxx

    hi, boy did you scare me with that pay total, how did you not run around the room screaming?

    Had a lovely but expensive weekend in Londinium with OH, why is the cinema so expensive there? it's daylight robbery. Also got some goodies for the wedding :)
