Renton 22024 Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 It would be really, really funny if mackem paranoia were fully justified and there really is a mysterious Tyneside Cabal. We're too lowly to be part of the ITK like, once that happens you need to leave the board like Bridget, champagne enema boy, and Quiff. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my old managers was a manager at nissan, he hated the tunnel travel every day but loved the job apparently. Anyway, he says there was about three managers would select people for interviews, all three B&W. He said there was two piles, an 'interview' pile and a 'naah, y'alreet, mate' pile. The former pile had a high proportion of 'NE' postcodes, 'SR' postcodes.......? Not so much. Reminds me of The Viz top tip: EMPLOYERS: Avoid hiring unlucky people by immediately tossing half the CVs into the bin. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I once vomited on the metro in Paris and 20 odd years later it's still one of my fondest memories. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex 35649 Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 Ah, I’m gutted to hear that. I guess everyone knew his life would be seriously curtailed by the disease but it’s still horrible news. Like ewerk alludes to, him and his former captain Kevin Sinfield did loads to raise money and awareness about the disease in a way that totally transcended Rugby League (and sport in general to be honest). 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wykikitoon 20888 Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 I saw them both a couple of weeks ago at the Leeds Marathon which is now named after him. He didn't look great. You knew it was going to come soon but its still a serious punch in the face. I was a season ticket holder at Headingley for 12 years and remember Rob breaking through into the first team. I went to the game yesterday and the atmosphere was wank despite beating the six fingered cunts down the road. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wykikitoon 20888 Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 Went down to Headingley this morning to pay my respects. Fuck it was hard like. Loads of people just stood in shock crying. It's challenge Cup final this weekend so the final will pay its respects to the little man. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 14074 Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 As of Friday, I’m officially a homeowner and, if waving goodbye to 80% of my savings wasn’t bad enough, the other 20% is now going on decor and homeware while I accumulate debt by placing all the really expensive stuff on a 0% credit card. Wish someone could remind me why this is such a great idea? Haven’t met the neighbours yet but if they’re cunts, I’m selling it immediately and living in a yurt somewhere 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your gut increases in size exponentially past the age of 40, no matter what exercise you do, not that you'll have time for it. Hair turns grey if you're lucky or falls out if you're Gemmill. Everybody at work becomes younger than you and out the corner of your eyes you can see their pity. What else? Oh aye. Weddings are replaced by funerals. Hangovers become living hell. You start grunting when you sit up from a sofa. And rather than lust after Porno Bridget, you worry she'll end up with a prolapsed disc, just like the one you've just suffered. Enjoy. 👍 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howmanheyman 33931 Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 So, had a job offer, accepted it, told day and time for an induction and was also told all the details, (contract I'm assuming) would be sent out. It's tomorrow I allegedly start but I've had nothing from them. I'm still going to turn up obviously but I'm also due to sign on today and I'm not too sure whether to say anything in case there's any unpleasant surprises tomorrow, especially after the last short-lived job turned out to be a bit economical with the truth. I'm like a fucking coiled spring waiting for an ambush! 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My last two jobs I was cold called by recruiters who tbf were a good point of contact if you wanted to get things like this moved along. It’s tricky phoninv a company sometimes when youve got to get past the gatekeepers on the reception desk.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
