And? Don't knock it till you try it. I can just ignore the door.
Thank you.
Tell me! It's short enough thanks. I thought you prefered long hair anyway?
Yeah, we did too. You had to hand your bus tickets in. It was electronics. But the only things I was "trained" to do were make large amounts of tea and taking brushes for a walk. It changed to YT when I finished mine and went up to £35 a week. So how it's gone down I don't know.
Well

So you're bi too? We pretended we were Jehovah's once, but the 'mental, mental, CRAZY!' worked the best.
Your welcome.
Have a lurk and see. Nah, Gone with the Wind moments can get a bit messy considering mine's 23" long.
I got stuck in a charity shop once, it's the only one I stayed at. Loads of old ladies feeding me cake and free books. I was assistant manager. Might have something to do with the sector, I was stuck in admin.
Well
Pad Posted Jun 20, 2003
Have a lurk where?
That is long.
Reminds me of League of Gentlemen. It was the same no matter what you were training to do. At least it was in Engerland.
Well

Into the dark past of the effing four. Or g's journal.
I'm tall enough for it to look alright, I think.
Up here, no matter what you train for, you're guaranteed to spend 12 weeks sitting in the offices of a training company reading the paper and playing solitaire on the PC. Those were the days.
Well
Pad Posted Jun 21, 2003
Oh you mean through those rose-tinted things you keep using?
I shall find out soon enough.
I was sitting in offices too. It must be cheaper.
Well
Zymurgy Posted Jun 21, 2003
C'mon, you have to admit that we made a good team.
That you will, I'm considering just asking my Da to take them.
I think the training company gets a bigger cut from the brew when you're in their possession. I got a place struck off the government-backed list by accident.
Well
Pad Posted Jun 21, 2003
It was fun, someone could do with a keyboard though. But why am I an ass again all of a sudden?
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! Don't you'll have the leads removed again.
It's all agencies now though, isn't it? And they get a cut from the work they set up for you.
Well
Zymurgy Posted Jun 22, 2003
Yeah, I know. I was planning to send her one for her birthday wasn't I? Fat chance now. It's not all of a sudden, she's holding the same grudge.
I wouldn't tell him what it was for. He's paranoid as it is!
Yep, they get a cut because they provide the paperwork and contact the NVQ. Paper-pushing, dontcha just love it?
Well
Pad Posted Jun 22, 2003
Did you send her cake then. I mean cake cake. You're joking, are you gonna let me see what she's said? Do you think it's cos I post to the same thread in your journal?
No you might not, but that would arouse his suspicions(Ah! spellings gone to pot now lol), and you don't need to do that.
So whose being deprived of the money that the agency gets then? You bleeding heart liberal.
Well
Zymurgy Posted Jun 22, 2003
I sent her a text cake, don't have her address. I'll forward it on when I'm going offline. Maybe it's a case of out of sight out of mind? I don't know why she's still got a grudge, i don't even remember what you were supposed to have done.
Spellings looking good to me. True, and I don't like lying. I'm not waiting for Babs to come back down.
No-one, if the agency wasn't there, it wouldn't qualify as training and there would be no funding, as far as I know. Also wishy-washy. What would you describe yourself as?
Well
Pad Posted Jun 22, 2003
Ah, the one you got? I think it probably is. Before that thread she hadn't been slagging me off AFAIK. Although we have being using these accounts lately. It's the rhyming thing.
Hmmm, too much then? I'm the same, I despise lying and avoid it at all costs. Try a little self experiment weg.
Forgot the wishy-washy. You are so into the "They are only doing there jobs." scenario.
Do you mean polictally or handsome, funny sex-god?
Well
Zymurgy Posted Jun 22, 2003
Yup, luckily she has a Nokia. Your name hadn't been brought up either though, seems every time it is she seizes the chance to whinge. She only lurks accounts she knows, I think. Wasn't there something after that too?
A little self-experiment? You're really too interested in my nostrils. I'll get it done.
Sponge? Well, most are. People aren't defined by their work alone, I believe in individuals. I know the second part, so I meant politically.
Well
Pad Posted Jun 22, 2003
I haven't been online though, have I? So like you said is it a cause of out of sight? Well the impression I got was that every posting I made was "having a dig." But I think that's where it all stems from.
Oh yeah, I so want to lick them. It's not just determined it's a promise now.
Yes you're right, people aren't defined by their jobs, they're defined by their actions. And if what they are doing is wrong, well at Nuremburg it was no defence.
How would you define my political standpoints?
Well
Zymurgy Posted Jun 22, 2003
True, but the only times she's had a go recently are when your name crops up in email, this time as #3. She should know by now that I don't take kindly to it, I told her that straight out. Even before that she was hitting it with 'You don't like me much, do you?'.
Eurgh. That's revolting. It is a promise and I will keep it. How you getting along with mine?
I think the comparison is a little extreme. Every man or woman who took part in the crimes of the holocaust knew what they were doing was wrong, even during war. Some believed in the Aryan race, some believed in self-preservation, some were psychopaths. Staff in the Jobcentre can fall into the same kind of categories, but outside of work they are their own people, it's forgotten. If you follow me.
A strangely conservative anarchist? I don't really know.
