I've taken tomorrow off, wonderful. Work is a bit weird at the moment with people trying to use their Annual Leave by the end of March.

Same. Working 3 and 4 day weeks for a while now because of the new rules.

 

[rettucs]

Yeah it’s use it or lose it time.

Are places really strict on that? I’ve always been told that the whole 3 year cycle thing is more of a guideline.

So it’s a “Don’t ask, Don’t tell” type thing?
Gotcha

"local arrangement"

but those of us in cycle 3 sitting on weeks of carried-over leave were not in a good place because of the new carryover rules that have started.

I'm on the lookout for one of those 4 shelf kallax units on adverts within reasonable driving distance.
Every time I see one listed, its gone in seconds. There must be people watching out for these fucking things around the clock.

Sometimes the lights kept woodies have something similar for cheap. Worth a look

I'd a few things on watchlist for a few months there trying to fill out the house and even with the notifications coming up fuckers were still in there before me

loads of people buying them for their own shops AFAIK.

Should have said, "the likes of woodies"

Same in my private sector job. I took a half day today, I’m making it a five-day weekend next week, and I’m taking Good Friday off too.

I managed to crack the wash hand basin in the bathroom today by closing a tin of paint beside it. Well, that's the only explanation we can come up with for why it's cracked. I had to give it a good thump with the heel of my hand to seat the lid and I reckon that's probably what cracked the sink.

had this happen to my freezer recently too. Two instances...is it time for a nationwide panic?

I recently took the bottomsl glass shelf out of the parents fridge and was cleaning it at the sink when it shattered and made a right mess. Glass everywhere, I was even finding it in my pockets later. Fuck cleaning fridges.

Apparently those drawers are called crispers

Haven't had one since Friday, so yes!

Happened to my mother in laws glass-top dining table. They came home from holidays and found it in a million pieces on the floor.
