    18k? I wish it was 18k. It's actually a lot less than that. Happy now, or do you still feel the need to be a dick?

      Riiiiiight, I'm being the dick. Perhaps I should run to the boss to tell him all about it.

      How do you think your manager is going to view you? Two minutes in the job and you don't trust his judgement to even raise the issue with him? In many firms that would be insubordination and be instant dismissal.

        Well obviously I realise that now. Last night I was being egged on by some people to escalate that shizzle which is why I posted on here to get advice from people like you, which I've now done. I've even memorised your four word thing up there...

          Even in the irk thread, throwing personal insults at each other isn't acceptable. Now make up and play nice.

            I already did:

            Observe.
            Record.
            Report.
            Act.

            See?

            I've brought smilies, too!

                No wait...

                I don't have a beard.

                  Recent irk:

                  Everywhere I look people are sticking apostrophies on the end of words to make them plural. It just drives me nutty looking at it. It's the only form of grammatical error that annoys me like this. It isn't wrong by omission but wrong by trying to be a smart arse. It's as if people know of apostrophies but have no idea where to put them so using them to pluralise just fits the bill. Even this forum falls guilty of it.

                  What takes the biscuit is sainsburies. They have a huge sign above the music aisle that says: CD's. Is the implication that this aisle belongs to the discs or maybe the sign does? Does check anyone these things? It boggles the mind.

                              This proves that I can't type but I can generally spell fine.

                              My point still stands!
