Morning
I had to dodge between cover to avoid falling helicopters this morning so rolled in around 9:30. Still beat my boss in.

Bella doesn't have staff.
It's against her Al-like student politics.

My aim in life is to have "a man"
Need something from the shops? I'll send my man out to get it.

god she was tedious
wah wah society blighted me and i can't get a job wah wah. nothing to do with my presentation skills wah wah.
( rachelswipe with a fork, Tue 22 Jan 2013, 9:51, Reply)

I'd like to present her wah wah.
She was hard done by. Society clearly owed her a living and wasn't paying up.

if you want to get into a seriously hard and white collar profession
you don't turn up with scarlet dyed hair and a nose ring. ffs. it's just common sense.

She would be perfect as a civil servant or local govt officer
where any spud can get a foot in the door and any expectations of the employer on presentation are bleated about as a breach of your human rights.

( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Tue 22 Jan 2013, 9:58, Reply)

anyone who works in the public sector
would get such a shock if they ever managed to get a job in the private sector. what, no flexi-time? what, call that a pension? what, i actually have to do some work? waaaaah.
( rachelswipe with a fork, Tue 22 Jan 2013, 10:16, Reply)

haha, fuck off.
You do realise that no flexi-time works both ways?

Also, you forgot "a real salary! brilliant"
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Tue 22 Jan 2013, 10:28, Reply)

It's ironic that a very high majority of people that constantly post on here through the day
work in the private sector.
( Davros' Granddad a voice of calm reason in a world of spastics., Tue 22 Jan 2013, 10:33, Reply)

It's particularly ironic*
that people who've never worked in the public sector at all profess to any kind of knowledge about how a job in the public sector works.

Anyone would think they'd got their info by selectively reading the Daily Mail or listening to fuckwitted Tory politicians but surely, surely the people here aren't that fucking retarded, are they? Surely not.

*it's not ironic at all, it would be desperately sad in fact, except they aren't being serious. I hope.

Even that doesn't have to be a deal breaker
if you're actually a)good and b)don't whine about persecution all the time.
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Tue 22 Jan 2013, 9:58, Reply)

Where I work no coloured hair, no face piercings are the general rules. No matter how good you are.
Visible tats are frowned upon.

I think it's pointless but I can see where they are coming from.
(Set your faces to Stunned Bigly, Tue 22 Jan 2013, 10:12, Reply)

Oh, yeah, I mean she couldn't see clients like that
but if you turned up for interview looking like that, and were really good, they'd probably still offer a job on condition you sort out appearance.

Although I'd be surprised about the coloured hair thing, even in law
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Tue 22 Jan 2013, 10:16, Reply)

the ex bleached his hair and was told that it was unsuitable for work
and that wasn't a law firm.

i got told off for wearing a t-shirt with sequins on the shoulder when we had dress-down for moving offices.

you wouldn't believe how petty and conservative it could be.
( rachelswipe with a fork, Tue 22 Jan 2013, 10:18, Reply)

Did you wear a bra underneath?

(Set your faces to Stunned Bigly, Tue 22 Jan 2013, 10:19, Reply)

i never leave home without one. just like you.

We should swap fitting tips.

( sporters I’m sincerely gratitude to you, Tue 22 Jan 2013, 10:36, Reply)

most of the people I know well in law
work for criminal defence and the CPS and that appears to be a lot less harsh about appearance - unless you're a barrister of course
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Tue 22 Jan 2013, 10:20, Reply)

Glorified civil servants you see.

(Set your faces to Stunned Bigly, Tue 22 Jan 2013, 10:23, Reply)

not criminal defence, though

haha it depends on the firm
bear in mind that a shirt in any colour other than white is seen as shocking in some places...
