Morning 'team', we have a new practice manager who refers to us in group emails as team. I've realised employing her may have been a mistake but came e across ok at interview.
When did you last think you made an error of judgement?
Alt, working on the boat today. Are you good with your hands, diy etc, or are you a complete flipper hands?
(, Fri 30 May 2014, 7:00, 199 replies, latest was 11 years ago)
As a Christian, with my full focus being on leading the life that the Lord Jesus wants me to live, I never make an error in judgement, and if things don't happen as expected I just remember it's all part of His plan for me.
Alt: As a Christian, to paraphrase Philippians 4 verse 13, I can do all things through Christ. His strength guides me and shows me how to do anything I turn my hand to, as long as His guiding hand is pushing me in the right direction.
Amen.

You can get much better headphones for around £50 or less, but they don't have the same street cred with the tosser community.

All Beats do is make your compressed mp3s a bit louder and bassier.

Does fit seamlessly with the worst kind of iPhone fanbois, though.

Wearing headphones in public makes you look like a bit mentally ill.
Earbuds for outside. Headphones indoors.

(, Fri 30 May 2014, 10:37, Reply)
I've never invested because of the above
I don't give a shit how good the sound quality is or is claimed to be, £200+ for cans is ridiculous. You're buying the brand, not the product, you're buying the chance to look flash when you walk down the street and prey upon the easily impressed.

So I'm not at all surprised that Dozer knows all about them ;-)
