The Fish

It sucks that this has been your experience. It's not mine though, every time I've needed HR they've had my back. Even when I've had issues with pay they've done their best to get it resolved as quick as possible.

Wife is in HR and certainly in her roles the pay issues land on their desks because of a fuck up in finance, but they're the face of it. I know she hates having to be the middle man between a justifiably pissed off employee and a department who've got the agility and alacrity of an NCP Car Park. She gets most enjoyment from supporting people on a career path, but much and more of her day-to-day is sorting out horseshit disputes involving finance, sex-pests, jobsworths, karens and entitled kids. A lot of the training courses they lay on fall flat with 90% of the staff, because they're set in their ways or don't yet see the value. But things like emotional intelligence, diversity awareness do matter. I know that my manager and team have benefited from training courses on awareness of mental health issues in the workplace because I can hear the buzzwords, or recognise the approaches. Good HR staff can make a huge difference in your work life balance, your career path and your confidence in the company.

You're right, we got £1m, the fee rising to to £6m if he did big tings.

Didn't we get £6m for him?

My Instagram is as private as it can be. Only very special people can see my stuff. Which is usually pictures of nice views, like these;

Fucking autocorrect. Bet it changes this to he will instead of Hades - he'll

I mean, the farm still hasn't been sold, so they're still stubbornly clinging onto a scrap of land beset on all sides by pollution and danger.

Meant more about the cost than the playing style And as to why would he join? Have you not seen our bridges, beaches and babes?

Heard that, but it's not true. More about the geography than Yorkshire obstinacy.

We'll look at that, a sentence including mackems and work that makes sense.

I dunno, I see a history of soft tissue injuries, and the intense way we play and I can't see anything but calamity for Enrico's baby boy. I'd rather we hobbled Brighton and stole Evan Ferguson from them.

Are we sure I was too young for him when he recorded thriller?

Nobody is, not even Sean Casey. Hey, that's a point, wtf are people like him and Burnsie going to do with Twitter being fucked?

It's easier to conduct a search if you use two hands.

I was 2 when Michael Jackson released Thriller. I was 27 when he died.

For all the shit he gets, if he says a deal is done, it's done. I can't think of any he's said is definitely happening that hasn't. I mean most of that is because he leans more negative, I guess. But if he says done deal, it's done.

Sorry, 'Chicken Nonce'.

My worry is; Is it just a case of Phillips not having the ability to usurp the established Man City players, or is he a bit of a Jack Rodwell? If it's the former, then sure he's worth a punt, if it's the latter then he should be avoided. Trouble is, how could you really know until he moves from Man City?

Round our way we've got that brilliant combination of Loads of entitled cyclist and Loads of entitled SUVs. Driving a country road on a Sunday morning just isn't worth the nerve shattering terror.
