Andy_Copland 0 #1 November 6, 2006 I put a lot of money towards my neices Christening and couldnt go because my old man stuck me on a late shift. He went. Im supposed to be working lates this week again but assured my sister id make it to my Nieces 1st birthday, so she told my old chap that im going and he gave it the "oh is he now, well im the boss" A.) Im a contractor, hes not my boss B.) I have covered the shift by swapping after i done the same thing for a guy that wanted to go to a parents meeting or some shit. Hes took the snotty with me because i havnt cleared it yet, what a fucking arse. I know how im dealing with it. Should i throw a few fucks into him as well is my only real question now 1338 People aint made of nothin' but water and shit. Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.

kbordson 8 #13 November 6, 2006 With friends I would definately support that... and even with family, at times... but if you can make your parents happy, that should be a goal.
