The Night Thread Mk. IX

Blame the Daily Mail for showing an image of a completely different species at the very top of the article

The Daily Mail is wrong?!? Surely that cannot be!

tbf the Mail seem to troll for hits more than anything. More worrying is that the Sun isn't trolling.

I tried to move my fish tank into the disused fire place today as I thought it would look good there which it did for about an hour until we heard a loud crack, I guess we hadn't distribted the weight properly and should have put a peice of wod underneath. I rescued the fish and stck them in a bucket but we need a new fish tank.

Congratulations!

Got a new one now, but trod on my xbox pad whilst carrying the tank into place and broke it. One of those days today.

Bad things come in threes aswell. Watch out

You were right, the wife got sent home from work after having a fit.
I'm getting an early night tonight before anything else happens.

A thick piece of bubble wrap works wonders

Rick, just lock yourself in a cupboard for the rest of the day

Did the site go down for anyone else the other day?

Probably

Been bingeing on FM again lately, sill so good - not been able to do so 6 the best pat of 6 months, during attachment and when my old laptop want to shit.



Does go down very often nowadays.

The budget crisis in the US is producing some pretty spectacular image macro's:

This is one of my favourite videos about it. This is why Taran Killam is my favourite person on Saturday Night Live

This is great

Not as awesome as this: Coolio showing up at random student housing and cooking dinner.

My dear Bulgaria

My favourite Bulgarian football story is still the one about the club who were tricked into sending their top players to Moscow ahead of a derby.

It is the same club - Levski Sofia

After a bit of advice here;

As I have moaned about many times on here I have a re-occurng knee dislocation problem steaming back from a football related injury in 2011, It was fixed surgically in August 2012 and all seemed well until a few months back when it began propping out again. I've been having physiotherapy as well as seeing a specialist and orthodontist since then which my employer is well aware of.
I work part-time in a newsagents which means standing up all day as well as having to kneel down whilst putting new stock on the shelves, whilst doing this my knee cap again dis-located (even whilst wearing a prescription knee support) right in front of my manager, I gave out a pretty loud grunt of pain and told her what had happened, however all I got in return was "Sorry, can't help you, take a lghter load next time." and she went on doing what she was doing as I was left to try and push my knee back into socket and get back to work. No note was made of this in any accident log and no first aid was offered to me as was left to limp around the shop for the remainder of my shift. Thankfully a collegue agreed to swap duties with me so I went behind the counter whilst she took over the stock rotation but I was still in considerable pain and still am now when I put weight on the leg, four days after the incident.

I feel I should complain about the incident but I don't want to make life at work awkward for myself so I'm caught in two minds.

She refused to put it in the accident book? She can get hammered for that

If you can prove all this then she is going to get annihilated

Although she will probably say that it was your fault for taking too heavy a load

That was my thinking, it wasn't that heavy, just a couple of boxes full of chocolate bars but still I'm sure from a health and safety perspective I'm only supposed to take one at a time.
Still the fact that no first aid was offered, or even a hand to get up is disgusting in my book.

Complain. Sounds like she deserves it.

Even if it was more then your supposed to carry surely she being in charge should have to point that out to you

I've gone through with it and submitted the complaint, have to say I'm not looking forward to going in on Saturday now but I do think it was the right thing to do.

Damn right it was!

I agree was right thing to do. Especially seeing as she just left you to try and get it back in place
