Payrise?
The fucking Jobcentre still haven't pulled their useless fingers out of their equally useless arses and paid me what I'm owed yet. Eight weeks. Eight fucking weeks! Despite being told last week, and again yesterday, that an emergency payment would be issued there's still no bloody sign of it. Just rang them again to be informed it hasn't been processed yet.

Wouldn't have happened in my day, we'd have been hauled over the fucking coals for incompetence.

Turn up in the office tomorrow with an overnight bag
and inform them that you will have to spend xmas with one of them, as you can't afford to have it in your own home.

He should bring the family and pets for extra emphasis.

I sign on tomorrow anyway.
I'm also supposed to be getting a phone call before lunchtime confirming my payment. If this doesn't happen I shall raise merry hell, as obviously the calm and rational approach isn't fucking working.

Remember to mention your years of service in the civil service
and anyone important you may know.

Feel free to mention that you know me.
I would imagine that will help.
