My boss was being a cunt to me so I told him he was a dickhead and to go fuck himself (among other things). Felt pretty alright.

Good thing it's his second to last day. :biggrin:

At work today I made a recommendation to fire the new old guy and I interviewed a new applicant and made the call to hire him.
Bring on more responsibility!!! If I can keep busy enough I might not fall asleep @ work so often :lol:

Gone from lowly contract drafter to lead drafter (with an offer of permanency) of a $500+ million project in about 2 months  :biggrin:

It was a good day!!!

It's 11:43pm, and I'm still at work, and the game STILL is in no state to be sent to the publisher although we bugged the hell out of it today and jumped on peoples backs about fixing it and they didn't

So that means we'll probably be here to 3 or 4am...  :angry:

Well, if everything goes well I will be, although if I end up hating it I can always come back here and do this job again.

I'll be lead tester, in charge of 10 people, working on a new Xbox360 project.

It's not as exciting as Star Wars, but on the other hand it's not working on a fucking PSP title... :E

Haha. At UniSA they have surveys and stuff for students to do. They send you an email about it saying it is confidential and anonymous, yet when you access the surveys on their website you need to enter your username and password to access them.

I bet they fool a lot of people though...

so tomorrow is the last day of my secondment, which is kinda cool. I've found litigation to be nowhere near as interesting as I thought it would be, and I'm keen to get back to negotiation anyways BUT I've been totally sneaky and managed to wangle it that I still have all the same authority as I did as a litigator which will make all my negotation shit way easier AND I dont have to run fuck all past my boss before doing anything, I can just do it AND I have also managed to wangle it that I dont have to take any phone calls if I dont fancy it. And if I dont wanna, I dont even have to start work til 10 most days!

oooo yeh england is fond of me! ;)

You wait til you get here, you may change your mind.  If you get that job you prolly wont get paid for a month after that unless it's thru an agency and they are paying you themselves.  Most jobs here pay monthly.

May I suggest jouing a few agencies and doing temp work in the meantime.  Unless your super loaded or plan on doing nothing at all in that time your savings won't go that far.

BTW are we still meeting you on the Sunday morning?  If so make your way to Earl's court tube stationm on the picadilly line and we'll meet you there. Will you have a phone?

Bit of a catch 22 really innit. Even if you see a job you like thru an agency you have to register with them before they'll put you forward for the job.  You have to meet with em and sometimes do tests like typing, excel, word, depending on what type of job u are after.

K well I'll wait to hear from ya.

When I die. I want to be frozen. And if they have to freeze me in pieces, so be it. I will wake up stronger than ever, because I will have used that time, to figure out exactly why I died. And what moves I could have used to defend myself better now that I know what hold he had me in.

 Have to walk around the factory to collect paperwork though  :drool:

 They measure their chocolate in tonnes too :lol:

I paid $35 for a small box of assorted Haighs chocolates last week. Needed them to bribe some office ladies.

 Haha.

 See what I can swing. They were giving away bags of truffles last week though. Fkn costly as to buy

 Today my superviser is away so I have nothing much to do, but if they send me home I don't get paid. Using my years of work dodging skills to stretch out an hours work into 6 hours isn't gonna be easy, but if anyone can do it, I can.
When I die. I want to be frozen. And if they have to freeze me in pieces, so be it. I will wake up stronger than ever, because I will have used that time, to figure out exactly why I died. And what moves I could have used to defend myself better now that I know what hold he had me in.

 hmmm.

 I dunno. Most workplaces are pretty full on when it comes to toxic chemicals/substances, especially corporations. I have never come heard of it being unusually dangerous before.

 From wikipedia

 ' As a fine powder, toner can remain suspended in the air for some period, and is considered to have health effects comparable to inert dust. It can be an irritant to people with respiratory conditions such as asthma or bronchitis. Following studies on bacteria in the 1970s that raised concerns about health effects resulting from pyrol, a contaminant created during manufacture of the carbon black used in black toner, manufacturing processes were changed to eliminate pyrol from the finished product.

According to recent research, some laser printers emit submicrometer particles which have been associated in other environmental studies with respiratory diseases'

 So long as you arent doing lines of it you will be ok, looks like it's mostly carbon.

at work today, me and jess emptied our desk money boxes into the coin counter machine at sainsburys and discovered that between us we had about £12.00, which we spent on sugary treats for our co workers, which we fed to them, then stood back and watched.

the best part of it was when we were having a meeting, and i noticed that on the roof of homebase (like bunnings) opposite my work, there were 2 seagulls doin' it. Everyone noticed me laughing, then noticed what i was looking at, so they started laughing. Excepet our boss who had her back to the window and thought we were laughing at her, so she got very angry with us. Ahhhh it was ace.

Actual conversation that took place at work today


Cust: Can you tell me where printer X is?
Me: Sure, where are you now? I'll tell you how to get there.
Cust: I'm near X's office.
Me: Ok, the printer you are looking for is on the other side of the building.
Cust: Other side? What do you mean?
Me: You know the side you are on now? Not that side.
Cust: Huh? Where is it?
Me: It is on the side of the building that is closest to the tube station.
Cust: Tube station? What do you mean?
Me: You know where the tube station is?
(everyone does as a: it is the main form of travel and b: it is across the road from the front of our building)
Cust: I don't understand what you mean... tube station? Never mind I'll go find the printer myself...
Me:  banghead


It would be funny if this was an isolated incident, but this woman is a repeat offender and it is well beyond a joke now. I would understand if she was hired based on her skills, or even if she was easy on the eye... she must know someone who knows someone, cos she has no skills and is really weird looking.

 Yeah still there, at the warehouse now tho , I wish it was about chocolate.

 One idea they shot down was, all the stock transfer sheets are just shoved in a desk in no real order, and today I had to search through a couple of months looking for errors that the monkeys down there had entered into the system. So I suggest, why don't we keep the sheets in a folder in chronological order then every Saturday when the stock take is done clean the folder out and file them so we can easily find dates later when we need to. Hardly rocket science no?

 Apparently there's no point doing that cos the shipments don't come in the right order or something. Load of shit seriously.

 I had a couple of cracking ideas today that the manager seriously couldn't even grasp no matter how many ways I explained it. Not the sharpest tool just quietly. Have a meeting with someone that actually has a clue on friday so we will see what he says, but changing anything in that company is like pulling teeth!

 Thought I better wait till I was home before posting that

didn't get that other job i applied for somehow, but it's all good, i was going to ask for a 10% pay increase before i took the position f/t



what that means is i had another intreview today, then going in for another drug and medical tomorrow or monday, then another interview, and another job i should be working in the meantime STILL hasn't gotten back to me


i seem to have had bad luck since late last year. quit it already!!

I have an interview at 5.30 with this woman for a new job. I hope I get it.

Theres "cakes" for people today for this guy whos leaving, and I was like
"So what times the cakes then, I wanna get there before everyone sneezes, coughs and breaths over them"

So this guy whos a team leader (not mine) goes "Dont be so ungrateful"

Ugh. Fuck off. You might be a scabby gross waste, but I prefer my food clean and un-tampered with!

 Today started with me being nervous about having to ask them to change my days cos of uni but it has morphed into them putting me on as a permanent employee and not through Skilled.

Looks like I may have to work saturdays but that equals loadings anyway. I will end up with the same amount of pay for less work, with a free day during the week.

I start work at 8. I got here at 7:20 ... I like to be early on a Saturday as I'm the only one working ( in the whole of the building ).
I get to work and take my jacket off, put my bag and phone down, walk out the door to go to the toilet, go to come back and realise that my security pass came off with my jacket. I have no way whatsoever of getting into the office. I didn't even have my phone.
After pacing the corridor for 10 mins I decide to start wandering over to the other side of the floor. All I can find of any use is some spare change in the kitchen ( at least I can go to a payphone and make a phone call ), but I don't know anyone's mobile numbers. The contact centre opens at 8:30 ... so I'm thinking that at 8:30 I'll go to a payphone, call the contact centre, and hope that someone can come down and let me back in ! Even though I'm supposed to be logged in and taking calls by 8 !
I started trying lots of doors and after a huge maze, someone left a door unlocked and I managed to get into the offices on the other side of the floor. So I log into a computer, find the boss' number, call him, he laughed and then came and let me in.
I was only 12 mins late logging into the phones.
I hope I never do that again !!

Well, day 2 of work, and at the end of the day, my boss has a chat to me to see how i'm goin etc. So with a little cockiness/sarcasm I tell him 'I've got it down, i'll be running the place in no time...'

10 minutes later, he comes back and tells me they're training me to be one of the supervisors next week....

Score! I better get more pay too....

I'm a commodities broker. So basically I rely on the traders to have commodities to buy and sell. Of course, when the dollar is up high, they can't buy for the price the sellers want to sell at. On friday I sold something for $540. The seller has a commodity for the same price today but as the dollar is up 3c it simply won't work. The Buyer is bidding at $510.

Annoying!

after seeing the foiled terrorist attack on the Australian Paratroopers Regiment by Lebanese and Somalian infidels:

- first job was a lebanese supermarket
- second job was at a Somalian man's house 
- another job soon after that was a dope house
- another on Hanson Rd appeared to be a whorehouse
- final job of the day involved my first uncovering of a bypassed electricity meter wow

Honestly I haven't done a degree in it. I'm not a trader myself, just a broker. But of course I needed an understanding of the grain markets. I have done a lot of on-the-job training with the national regulatory body for Australian grain, seed and pulse exports though.

So just then, well maybe half an hour ago, I was sort-of-retrenched.

The boss says I can stay until I find another job, but she wants me to find work elsewhere while the market is so slow. I can come back when it picks up again... but if I can get let go when the market is like this, do I really want to come back to it?

Anyone got room for a commodities broker?

I'll have my own little batch of franchisees to look after as well as clients to deal with. Interstate travel, box at the soccer thanks very much! Not as much money as I was on here but it's all about the job satisfaction. Apparently I'll be so busy I'll barely have time to blink, which is what I want.

Starts monday week. I am doing a little for my old boss from 2 years ago next week at casual rates, just some business development.

So last week I asked the marketing dept to create a quick reference contact sheet for me to hand out to my customers (an update of my previous one). On it I listed about a page worth of relevant contacts that my customers will use (a single page, for quick reference).

I got an email back stating that they were currently creating new contact sheets for everyone in the organisation and they would have it to me this week.

Just got an email back with an attachment, thinking "awesome, just in time for me to hand out before I go on leave" I open it up, 4 fucking pages worth of contacts including totally irrelevant people that arent even in customer facing roles. On top of that, my details, their account manager, are buried at the bottom of about 15 executive contacts and the most relevant contacts are on page 3.

on a new and quite unfamiliar new workplace, i fixed oven #1 yesterday, at around 9pm. went and got it running again at 1230am to double check it was working properly before the next production shift came in and it seemed to be going about 20% overtemp. i thought this was a bit too much and left it to go investigate.

i go to the office and log on to the program and start screwing with the numbers a little bit when..... the fire alarm goes off. 130am mind you.

luckily it was oven #2 - totally not my fault, but man i was shitscared i'd burned down a factory for a few minutes there laugh

Clearance can take up to 6 months. I take it you haven't gone for Top Secret level 1 or whatever it is. The one where they call your friends, family, ex-bosses, girlfriends, boyfriends, pets, uncles and the bloke down the shop. Known in the Defence industry as being anal-probed.

I've heard many things from people working in roles (that they're coyly and mysteriously not allowed to talk about) being tailed for some time as well

Yeah it's not for a defence postition, but the DoD have recently taken over the processing of the applications, used to take 3 but now i'm told to wait 4 from when my second pack of exhaustive information packages was recieved.

10 years of work history, incl. contacts, 10 years of residential history (incl documentary proof.. which i needed a stat dec and jp for, among other things -  cause i don't hang onto shit like that >.<  )

The mentality of some people I see at work just astounds me.

 For those that don't know I work at ATO in Debt.

 Case today, a guy who owes approx $100k in Income tax and GST which has been accruing over the past 10 years. Receives an average income, just has basically chosen to collect GST from customers and then use the money for himself, while not paying sufficient income tax and not paying what he owes at the end of the financial year. Now a siginificant portion of what he owes is interest, but tax debt would be about $60k.

 He has purchased a house and a new car in 2008, and recently has applied to get his tax debt waived as he is experiencing hardship??!!!

 Ummm how about sell the house that YOU CLEARLY CAN'T AFFORD and pay your tax like 99% of Australians.

 AHHHHH it makes me rage.

How'd he get away with that? I lodged two BAS forms late and got a final notice warning threatening a fine if I was late with the next one. I called and had one of the warnings revoked/wiped because there was a genuine problem processing the delay but you'd think it'd be impossible to get away with it for that long without having some guys in scary black suits come and pay a visit!

ATO sent me a warning a couple months back about an unsubmitted BAS form from 2003 for an ABN i deregistered in 2003. they couldnt explain why it took 8 years for them to send it to me.

 :facepalm:

but yeah, you would hope they would be able to keep track of 100K in back taxes

So... at work today... (well this more about what I'm doing on Monday & Tuesday).

I work for the Australia Day Council. We run the Australian of the Year Awards.

On Monday/Tuesday I'm running a 'Tour of Honour' with some of our Australian of the Year Awards winners where we take them around to SA schools and have them speak to the students, giving them positive role models etc

> Jessica Watson - Young Aust of the Year - (round the world sailor)
> Jack Buckskin - Young Aust of the Year (SA) - (Aboriginal culture leader)
> Professor Tanya Monro - Aust of the Year (SA) - (Leading physicist)
> Peter Goers - Australia's Local Hero (SA) - (Media personality and community supporter)

Really good fun and inspiring. I get to 'MC' the events and will facilitate the panel discussion at school assemblies (most have 500+ students!)

FYI Here's a vid of when we did it 2 years ago (with different award winners and a professional mc):

So, I almost quit yesterday, because the people in Paris HQ have no fucking idea how to make games nor run a games company.

They essentially accused me of being lazy, even though I've been working 60 hour weeks, for suggesting a solution to a problem they created.

Seriously, I feel I had more respect working at fucking Telstra...  :facepalm:

And I am stuck at work today, which despite my best efforts became unavoidable due to HQ's complete lack of competence, and it's doubly galling because Maz and Dan and the twins are in Auckland this weekend leaving me only tomorrow to see them :(

Yeah I'm kinda on the top of a mountain in the middle of West Papua now so no milkshakes for me.

It's a national holiday here for Indonesia Day or whatever so we can't work, not because the locals here get a day off, but because security won't let us out - today is a good day for the Papuan separatists to take us hostage. Quite a few people, both locals and expats, have been shot around here over the last few years. Apparently the local security forces will ambush vehicles and shoot people, blame it on the locals, and try to receive more funding and weapons.

The last actual town I was in the locals still wear a piece of bamboo on their cock and nothing else, and hunt with bow and arrows.

Only 12 years ago the locals I'm working with in the middle of the jungle praised the helicopter that flew in here as a god, and practiced cannibalism.

That's awesome man. Enjoy the experience, it's so cool to think that with our modern world there are still interesting untouched cultures still around.

It reminds me of how one of the Rockefeller descendants went on an anthropological journey of discovery to New Guinea several decades ago and simply disappeared.

When I die. I want to be frozen. And if they have to freeze me in pieces, so be it. I will wake up stronger than ever, because I will have used that time, to figure out exactly why I died. And what moves I could have used to defend myself better now that I know what hold he had me in.

The last actual town I was in the locals still wear a piece of bamboo on their cock and nothing else, and hunt with bow and arrows.

Only 12 years ago the locals I'm working with in the middle of the jungle praised the helicopter that flew in here as a god, and practiced cannibalism.

So, you're in Auckland now as well??

Im not much of a bands dude as mainly listen to electronic music and hip hop.

Had a pretty good time. First time at Ent Centre since Beasties 'Hello Nasty' way back a long time ago. Great food, got heaps boozed, rocked out etc.

Tram back into town post-concert was well raucous! :)

Too late, hired this girl!

On another note, was going to 2nd interview a guy. He calls the recruiter and tells her he withdraws his application for the position as he didn't want to be on call 1 out of 2 weekends. Fair enough. I hire the girl, who was very much in the running anyway.

At 2.30pm this guy emails me to say he's made an error of judgement and wants to come for the interview. Err I think not.

Nup, I needed a new staff member, so I hired one. Problem is that I get back from holidays to discover that she chucked two sickies last week and one today. She started on the 3rd. HRRRRM SUSS!

Have already told the recruiter that I may be chucking her and getting them to find me a new one. It's just so shockingly time consuming. But if the reasons that she had days off are legit, then it's a run of bad luck for her and hopefully it all gets better. But three different excuses each time and telling me one thing and someone else something else doesn't bode well.

Had a customer call today.  They have a Macbook and they can't connect it to the internet either via wi fi or with a LAN cable.

They took their machine into the Apple Store who told them 'your internet is the problem'.

They are living in a sharehouse, and 5 other people are able to use the wi fi/internet at the premises no probs.

 :smashed:

It is also worth noting that this customer called up with :

 a) her laptop battery dead

 b) no power charger available.

expecting me to resolve the connectivity issue.

All in all a pretty standard call from a Mac user.
