Bollocks, I've now been told I have to come back down on Tuesday during the day, then back to Glasgow Tuesday night to work in the evening... this is all too rushed, I'm going to have to dip out of this altogether. Sorry glasgow. ailsa, you should get your dvds tonight off Gerry anyway. Can somebody who can use their phone at work text her and let her know? Ta.

I'll come up in the summer when I have some ACTUAL TIME.

aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Wednesday, 17 May 2006 08:32 (twenty years ago)

Your employer is crap.

I'll text ailsa.

Onimo (GerryNemo), Wednesday, 17 May 2006 08:44 (twenty years ago)

They certainly are.

Ta.

aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Wednesday, 17 May 2006 08:53 (twenty years ago)

What's this about Sunday?

Mädchen (Madchen), Wednesday, 17 May 2006 09:46 (twenty years ago)

ailsa would like a pint with someone and I've let her down.

aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Wednesday, 17 May 2006 10:02 (twenty years ago)

Talking of crap employers...

I got the sack yesterday for reading my email. No warning, just one strike and out. It was all over in a matter of minutes. Cunts.

So me and Hmmm are no longer colleagues. Boo!

Stew (stew s), Wednesday, 17 May 2006 12:15 (twenty years ago)

I don't really want a pint on Sunday, I would have preferred Sunday for aldo-FAP is all. The rush to notify me so I could negotiate a start date with my new employer which didn't coincide with a hangover was all in vain, since they haven't actually phoned to offer me the job. Thanks for the DVDs anyway, Al, which I am leaving to go and pick up in a matter of minutes. *checks watch, panics*

Aw, Stew, I'd just applied for a job with your work as well :-(

ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 17 May 2006 16:31 (twenty years ago)

The management there have turned evil. Don't believe all the "you're an associate not an employee" pish! All the best with that though, a job's a job!

Stew (stew s), Wednesday, 17 May 2006 17:27 (twenty years ago)

bloody hell, stew! that's deeply harsh. fucking hell.

but hey, glasgow. we can still drink without aldo. when shall we do it?

grimly fiendish (grimlord), Wednesday, 17 May 2006 19:56 (twenty years ago)

So me and Hmmm are no longer colleagues. Boo!

Oh no! Should they not have instigated some sort of disciplinary procedure rather than just asking you to leave?

Shits.

Talking again of crap employers, my trip next week has just been fucking cancelled. Since I can't rant and shout in the office I'll do it here instead.

try glasgow LESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RJG (RJG), Thursday, 18 May 2006 16:46 (twenty years ago)

aldo, i emailed you to your work because i couldn't remember what variant of your name you used for your email. however, it was to offer to buy you beer in glasgow, so i guess it doesn't matter if you didn't get it.

ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 18 May 2006 18:10 (twenty years ago)

anyone been to the new comme des garcons?

cozen (Cozen), Sunday, 21 May 2006 07:09 (twenty years ago)

I have no idea where that is but I'm intrigued. To the google machine!

jimnaseum (jimnaseum), Sunday, 21 May 2006 14:14 (twenty years ago)

wow i didn't know about that CDG. maybe it's gone by now.


anyway: i saw jandek walking down buchanan street today WTF?!!!!!!

jed_ (jed), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 19:23 (twenty years ago)

did you try talking to him?!

geeta (geeta), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 19:49 (twenty years ago)

no, i looked at him and he saw some sort of flicker of aknowledgement in me before looking down and walking past.

jed_ (jed), Tuesday, 23 May 2006 19:54 (twenty years ago)

You'll be glad I've got a lovely new temp job at Yell, starting at the end of next week. It's an ok place to work apparently as most of the people are over-educated slackers like myself.

ATP was rad!

Stew (stew s), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 13:32 (twenty years ago)

Hurrah for Stew! I need a temp job too, but I can't actually be bothered going any further than Paisley to look for one.

ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 13:41 (twenty years ago)

no-one at my work is an "over-educated slacker"

RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 13:45 (twenty years ago)

Perhaps "arts graduate" is a better and more accurate term!

Stew (stew s), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 13:52 (twenty years ago)

dunno how many, of them, we have, either

RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 14:04 (twenty years ago)

no-one at my work is RJG. Or Stew, either.

stet (stet), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 14:30 (twenty years ago)

comme des garcons is here for a year I think

cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 15:58 (twenty years ago)

let's go

RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 16:15 (twenty years ago)

OK

cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 16:24 (twenty years ago)

how was it?

grimly fiendish (grimlord), Wednesday, 24 May 2006 21:30 (twenty years ago)

(that didn't work. i thought it would look funnier. sorry.)

9/10. You were docked a point for not reversing the B in ABBA.

Jerry the Nipper (Jerrynipper), Wednesday, 31 May 2006 10:43 (twenty years ago)

I had I promise!!!

Cor, World Cup + Winchester = fantabulous amounts of boozing. Hurrah! (I probably won't be there, like, but, y'know...)

ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 31 May 2006 10:54 (twenty years ago)

Onimo (GerryNemo), Wednesday, 31 May 2006 10:56 (twenty years ago)

RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 31 May 2006 11:02 (twenty years ago)

Mädchen (Madchen), Wednesday, 31 May 2006 15:19 (twenty years ago)

http://www.reasoner.org/wp-content/photos/IRI999c.jpg

cathy says she thinks this one is "hot" but I think he dresses far too casually

RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 31 May 2006 17:09 (twenty years ago)

I'd totally do a Persian.

Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 31 May 2006 20:43 (twenty years ago)

That's sick - *he* looks like your Dad playing St Paul!

Lara (Lara), Wednesday, 31 May 2006 20:46 (twenty years ago)

persian sounds good. this sounds worth a try too, for BEER. anyone been yet?

grimly fiendish (grimlord), Wednesday, 31 May 2006 21:09 (twenty years ago)

cozen talks about it as he does most things

RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 31 May 2006 22:25 (twenty years ago)

I really really like the look of the Persian but I am leaving tomorrow : (

Cathy (Cathy), Thursday, 1 June 2006 07:16 (twenty years ago)

I like the look of Persian and also of Glasgow Green beer place. Let's go out, Glasgow!

Those of you who don't read the Watercooler thread may or may not know that beanz who posts on ILX is coming up to Glasgow today until Sunday. Drinking may occur at some point.
