"It's Tchaikovsky's 'Another One Bites the Dust'," said Crowley, closing his eyes as they went through Slough.
To while away the time as they crossed the sleeping Chilterns, they also listened to William Byrd's "We Are the Champions" and Beethoven's "I Want To Break Free." Neither were as good as Vaughan Williams's "Fat-Bottomed Girls."

I'll have to have words with the local bus drivers, or else get a bike :(

I'll listen to most things on the way into work
although death metal tends to send me in there spoiling for a fight...

The only thing I listen to on my way to work
is the guy at the security gate making up yet another reason for why I need to show him my pass.

If the one on our front desk (we share our building with two other companies)
makes any more comments about "ooo, she's been shopping again!" when I come back from my lunch with milk or something, I am going to cunt him in the fuck. Nosy old bugger.

You should cone in with an unusual outfit
or some unusual items just to see what sort of reaction you'd get.

Oh, why is there not an Ann Summers in Trashford?
That'd shut him up.

Im lucky enough to never have worked for a company with a security guy at the front desk

I make it a point just to cycle past the gate before he can say anything. As I come in every day, he won't feel guilty for letting in someone he shouldn't.

And you just know that if you forgot it one day
he'd pretend to not know you.

We get A Letter if we forget ours once, and a Letter for our manager if we do it twice!

Security
I find that using the old jedi mind trick works with the weak minded (i.e. security guards).

Must practice the Alec Guinness hand wave more...

Works a treat down the station - don't even need to show a pass or tix now!
They just know me because of my job (and because of Flatmate).

Openings
Some of us have super special tickets that open all the barriers and doors anyway :-p

But I'm lazy so I wait until the gateline staff open them for me.

^{(And I believe the nearest Ann Summers is in Maidstone... not that I know exactly where, mind you...)}

They know me by sight now so it doesn't matter :)
I've never been to Maidstone...
