Oooh sounds lovely. Yeah, I have heard red lentils go mushy easily and are best for soups. Couldn't find Puy lentils so I chose these instead. Thanks Minka :)

I bought a bag of them a few days ago but am at a loss as to how to deal with them. Was thinking along the lines of just cooking them up with some sausages in a kind of thick tasty gruel-ish recipe. Any other suggestions?

I went to school with a brother and sister who both had Tourettes. They were great craic!

This is good advice. Especially if you drink so much you get sick. You'll be forced to deal with the immediate needs of your hangover in the morning rather than worrying about the things those cunts stole from ya.

So would I my friend. So would I.

Oh he knows what happened as I gave him an earful. He can't stand her either but she's above him so there's nothing he can do.

Well it's not something I have ever done before. So I don't know. Obviously I'm about to find out. I am not a compulsive type of person so this is totally out of character for me. But the abuse etc she was shouting at me - we're in an open plan office and everyone within 15 feet heard her. I was...

Basically just wrote a two line letter saying 'I hereby resign. My last day will be April 1st' and handed it to my manager (the one who should have given me my bonus and pay rise info). He sent me a text last night asking me to sleep on it. Which I have. Not sure if it makes any difference...

Thanks hun. Thing was no one stood up to her and told her she was being a bitch. That hurt quite a bit as well.

Thanks kids. Sick now though as I don't have a job come April 1st.

Hm. Maybe I will order those Mont Blanc pens I've always wanted on the company account...yes?

Great advice nonetheless!

ROFLMAO If only I was creative enough to do it with such panache!

Em well here's an update - I just resigned. The woman who gave me my pay rise/bonus review this morning tore me a new hole a couple of hours ago because she's going to a conference and instead of her getting her usual hotel room she's been booked into a luxury apartment. GOD FORBID! She screamed...

Will this work for me even though I am not black?

I totally understand that, and I know I'm lucky to have a raise at all. However, I also know the figures and the profits we made, and I also know the types of bonuses my bosses get (along the lines of three times their salaries) so that may explain a bit more about my feelings in this situation.

Thanks scutter, brilliant advice.

I've considered that but I don't want to be dishonest (as it could backfire). If they won't offer me more then I will defo feck off because I know I can do better elsewhere. I just feel kinda...insulted ya know?

Just need some advice on this scenario... It's bonus/pay review time in our company. Last year I had a great bonus and a pretty good pay rise. Just got pulled in this morning to be told the news. Firstly, I was being told by someone I don't work for or with (generally my director would tell...

Oh ick. I have hideous images in my mind of opening the glass case and begging him to breathe on me for a whiff of his minty freshness. !bog
