I've been tapped up!

[FleetFanatic]

I'm glad I never got a job like that, they do far too much work.

[Harry J Allstars]

All of the above except surfing the web, not allowed on. Before I got their the staff couldn't find a way to get on, but I managed to round that one and got on but then got told off. If I return to where I used to work they encourage you to use the web.

[Hirsty]

Most firms, if not all, should encourage you to work, not piss about on the web during company time...a mis use of company assets I am informed, a disciplinary offence which could lead to dismissal, I gather ! So think yourself lucky Harry...

 

But then....you could just carry on spouting sh*t as normal....

 

No offence.....up the workers !

 

Cheers,

Agree indeed Hirsty, I only managed to get on by mistake and was unaware we were not allowed.

 

In my role I have these time sheets that I have to make sure are correct to the information I have. So I have to different bits of info and make sure they add up. They do not always do this and it makes it a very tedious task looking for the info that is not correct.

 

I work in Alphabetical order. I started on the letter A last Tuesday, I am now on the Letter S!

If I counted all the lunch breaks I don't take, that'd be several hundred hours of web surfing they owe me...

Agreed mate!

[Harry J Allstars]

The other day I was sent to the chemist to get a prescription for my boss. When I got there I was allowed to walk around in the chemist (as it doubled as a post office) but due to the chemist being on their lunch break I couldn't get what I needed.

 

There were two of them there, what a wanted was yards away from them and they could easily get what I needed but due to "being on their lunch break" they wouldn't get what I needed.

 

Brings a whole new meaning to the word jobs worth.

You really are unlucky Harry..........I bet the rest of Britain have the opposite problem......The Post Office counter is always shut! <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

[Hirsty]

I think we have all been there Harry. Keep thinking positive, show enthusiasm, and don't let the bastards grind you down........and good luck mate !

 

....this must be the most serious reply I have ever made ??!!

 

Cheers,

[Slartibartfast]

Do they still stock Elbow Grease?

[David Holden]

They must do, or you would never be able to use your skyhook

[Slartibartfast]

I slung my hook years ago and I can't remember where I slung it.

And trust me that "box of sparks" will all have extinguished by the time you get back to the office from the hardware store.
