More and more people are doing it.

 

It's  properly,it isn't 'proply' it has never been proply so stop saying it, it's not big and it's not clever, say it properly.

 

Stop being so lazy, pronounce the whole word,3 syllables, it's not that difficult.

I have just been at the receiving end of yet more HR stupidity.

 

To cut a long story short, me and a small number of colleagues completed some forms 4 weeks ago (prior to a new office move). The forms are required for us all to claim disturbance allowance.

 

The forms were all placed into a folder and left on the keyboard of the senior HR person who needs to sign them.

 

We have been in the new office three weeks. Found out this week that the forms have not yet been signed or processed in any way.

 

I really hate HR. This is a p*ss simple job that an overpaid twonk has failed to complete. A 5 minute piece of work !!!

 

I hope a herd of aardvarks eat her shoe collection.

I may have said this before, but as I'm noticing it more and more I thought I would rant again...

 

It's the BBC and how they seem to be prefacing their news reports with the word "exclusive" at both a local and national level.

 

I'll be honest, I really don't give a rats a$$ whether they are the only news agency to get this report or not.

 

 (one for local and one for national).

Good luck to her.  She was pulled out of her box for the prime purpose of selling Tory benefit cuts.  She was supposed to have her 15 minutes of being the public face of benefits scrounging.  She was click bait whose purpose was to get barraged by on line hate and then slope away, suitable chastised by the court of public opinion and humiliated.  Once she'd filled her purpose the media could find a new 15 minute hate figure. 

 

Good luck to her, she's stuck around and got something out of the deal.  Made some money out of her exploitation by the strangely titled, Love Productions, TV production company.

Just add to the above, that I'm sure you can find posters of East End proper naughty bad boys who only involved their own and loved their dear old mum, the Crays.  There's a whole micro industry surrounding the glorification of those two thugs.

 

Not a new phenomena.

It's good that communities are now starting to make it difficult for TV companies to film this sort of politicised rubbish.  It's about time Ofcom investigated the proliferation of this sort of programming and its right wing bias. 

 

I don't think it's a coincidence that this sort of show has mushroomed since the Tories formed a government.  The Tories must hate it that animosity towards their banker paymasters can't be fully deflected to the poor working classes.

We all know what they're up to.

She's made her point

TV prog, those making them and those within should all most definitely slope off and leave the whole tawdry mess alone.

GATESHEAD COUNCIL - in their wisdom have announced 2015 as the year of walking.

Gateshead council can help people walk more by employing people to sweep our streets if you ask me - cheeky twots!!!

I'll walk when I want - not cos Gateshead council suggest I should.

 

Oh and read this from the local handout,

"The launch saw local residents from walking groups sign up to a pledge to walk more"

 

That's cutting edge stuff in my book - idiots

I don't live in Kent, but I have heard something. At the MOD we have been experimenting with weaponized mosquito's specifically for use in the middle east and latterly North Korea (they won't fly into South Korea as we fit a dog collar type device which gives them a fatal shock).
