Supermarkets that display pizzas stood up on end, so all toppings slide to the bottom of the pizza.
I’m hoping they didn’t send him a free 3rd kit like they did some of the othersAgreed, he's an absolute whopper
You not making the game tomorrow then?- The Eurostar terminal at St Pancras (a zoo).
- The passenger who barged in front of me to get on the train (that you have an allocated seat for) 20 minutes before it is going to leave, and then tried to dob me in to the conductor for not having a ticket when I challenged him on being a prick.
- The passengers (must have been half a dozen) on the Eurostar train who watched me drop my passport as I was getting off and said absolutely nothing. In some miracle I checked my pockets as I got onto the platform and realised, before jumping back on to find it on the floor.
Not a good morning for ESB1.
Used to love going on the Eurostar, the last time we used it (to Amsterdam) in 2022 it was a complete shitshow. The train was half-empty too; apparently a post-Brexit thing?
Sat in my car before a match in car park listening to Oggy, and I heard a loud noise from outside, thought it might be trouble brewing. Then he walked past shouting into his phone, held high in front of him. Dipstick.That clown Sunny T and pulling Torp back to get desperate words for likes - absolute tool
H&S need to have a word at FA level,hangs around for at least ten minutes.Pyrotechnics as the players walked out. Wind blew the smoke over to the posh seats. Nearly bloody choked
Doug wasn't having it with those flares & fireworks yesterday.Net zero innit!
Saves on the vape I suppose?I’m usually against that sort of stuff but quite like the fireworks for the smoke afterwards.
Whilst annoying, a lot of this is on the employer themselves. Employers that will take employees through the absence stages will force people to come in to work.People coming into work full of cold, your not hero’s , fuck off home and stay away from us! I’d rather have to cover your work and be fully fit. Does my head in
In the same kinda vein as this, something that bugs the life out of me....Whilst annoying, a lot of this is on the employer themselves. Employers that will take employees through the absence stages will force people to come in to work.
If, in a 12 month period I have 1 day off with the shits, 2 days off with a cold and 1 day off because of my kids, im on stage 3 absence and 1 more absence within a 24 month period and im looking at the sack! And keeping my job is just a tad more important than caring about giving you the sniffles!

There's many studies on this and as with things like working from home and the 4 day week its something where employers will ignore the evidence thinking they know better.People coming into work full of cold, your not hero’s , fuck off home and stay away from us!

The phenomenon of presenteeism - where employees work while unwell - has evolved into a critical challenge for UK businesses, with new research conducted by the Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) revealing that its cost has skyrocketed to an alarming £103bn in 2023. This represents a incredible £30 billion increase since 2018 (£73bn), highlighting an urgent need for workplace culture reform and improved health management strategies.
As well as finding that the costs associated with presenteeism have rocketed to £103bn, the study by the IPPR found that:-
- Employees now lose an average of 44 days of productivity annually due to working while sick
- As presenteeism exacerbates illness over time, sick leave has increased on average from 3.7 to 6.7 days per annum
- British workers remain among the least likely to take sick leave compared to their European counterparts
- Of the £30 billion cost increase since 2018, £25bn is attributable to reduced productivity, whilst £5bn is due to increased sick leave
- Presenteeism disproportionately affects those "people in lower quality jobs and workers lacking formal qualifications."
They're desperate for your business?The amount of spammy leaflets that the postman now seems to put through my door. Made a trip to my door earlier just to post a leaflet about specsavers.
They're desperate for your business?
Of course they do. Have been for a long time.It's not just specsavers, dominoes etc etc.
They aren't addressed to me, just spam mail but it's the postman doing it.
Do Royal Mail get paid for it now?
Yeah but he's asking if it's new that a postman delivers this rubbish, could be now that it's owned by a(Slovakian/Czek ?billionaireOf course they do. Have been for a long time.
That and the free local newspapers - Where they still circulate.
They have always done mail shots and flyers . Under old pay deals they would have been a payment or allowance for doing these but that has been cut back .Yeah but he's asking if it's new that a postman delivers this rubbish, could be now that it's owned by a(Slovakian/Czek ?billionaire
I worked briefly on RM deliveries in between jobs just over thirty years ago and I don't honestly recall them being included then.Yeah but he's asking if it's new that a postman delivers this rubbish, could be now that it's owned by a(Slovakian/Czek ?billionaire

I got it from gigante. It was a refurbished unit. Good spec and needed it quickly, hence no real time to shop around. The previous one I built myself. Lasted about 8 yearsOSB - what make was it, will be looking for a new one in a few months.
I’ve taken it back, they’re checking it out for me.Obviously under warranty and will be replaced?
If it's not, then the cables from the PSU will go to the motherboard etc.
Can't see it mate.They're desperate for your business?
