Can maybe get a couple of steak bakes and a sausage roll for that. :D


A lady just came back and said there was £10 on her Greggs card not £5 as we were told. Just think of how many sausage rolls I can get if I have £10 on mine!


Youre not good enough for £10 at Greggs


Yes I am, I am a good boy, I deserve treats. Damn you.


You've been a bad boy Moggy, a very bad boy.

120 redundancies at work.

17 in my department... That's an entire shift/a quarter of the staff.

I'm strawberry floated. Happy days!

But if your title/role has changed can it be inferred you've signed a new/different contract without putting pen to paper but by accepting the position?

From my previous roles when ever a role or title was changed I got a new contract so I would assume you should get one to sign, at the very least they should send you the updated one for your records.

Agreed. When I've had a promotion in the past I've signed something that stated my new title and salary and that my conditions remained unchanged. A contract cannot change without you signing it.

Hmm, my friend thinks they haven't signed any nee contract. They're thinking the best option might be to say they're going for a loan and need a copy. Sound reasonable?

When do you find out if you're safe or not?

You need it for all sorts of legal/verification reasons, so yes they should get a new contract. It's a legal requirement.

Holy gooseberry fool, (weirdish) guy has been let go from my office due to a 'police issue' from immediate effect. We haven't been given any details, but we've been told (which we've never been told before) to not contact him or reply to him if he tries to contact us.

Apparently he was harassing girls in the office by sending them too many emails.

Well, the police called up and they want nobody to touch his work PC as I think they're coming to take it away.

Looks like I was right then. Always talk to girls, that way you leave no incriminating evidence on your hard drive.

We had an IT guy at our place who was "procuring" items from our company and selling them on Gumtree.

So it turns out the guy was arrested and charged 3 years ago for having indecent images of children in his possession.

My boss received an email at the weekend from two kids telling him about the guy, so I guess that nothing was ever said during the interview and he quizzed him if the stories were true and he said yes, to which he was immediately fired.

Wait so he was fired for something that happened years ago? But then why did the police call up your office?
