The plastic bag fee hasn't changed my plastic bag consumption at all
Getting real fucking bored of being constantly dripping with sweat including when I'm just sat down doing fucking nothing
I have a very important question, how do you end emails in professional environment (ie at work). I always just writr Thanks and my name. Was having this discussion just now with a colleague and realised I've never ended an email with Best Regards or some variation, I wouldn't say it in real life so why would I in an email.
Went to War & Peace Revival in Kent with some mates and tried to film some of the tank demonstrations and both my friends phones shut off due to temperature warnings. Never in my life did I think i'd see the day.
Just got myself a Graduate Software Engineer job, it's the first and only job I bothered applying for after graduation :V
I usually end with Regards if it's someone I don't know, Best Regards if it is someone important and Thanks if i'm asking for something.
I just always say thanks at the end of my emails
it doesnt matter how you end it so long as you open with a dick pic before any words have been said
Depends on the company I think. Everyone where I work uses "regards" or some variant of. But in the same way you start a professional letter "Dear x" you'd never say that phrase in real life. I don't particularly like thanks, it reminds me of TIA and just makes me think you assume I'm going to do what you asked for, generally leading me to not do it. Not that I'm petty though.
I personally don't end my email with anything. I find it silly putting 'Kind Regards, Stylee32' if the email has my signature and job title etc. Some managers at my work just put 'Regards, name' in their signature so they don't have to type it
Guys the sky is sweating, what's going on?!
How the fuck can the weather go from "it's hotter than the sun and are going to die of heat stroke any minute" to "it's cool, pissing it down, and you are going to get fucked by lightning any second" in a matter of about two hours? I mean thank fuck the rains have finally come, but I can't believe this is the same day where I was on a bus that was like 40°C.
Yeah, it was about 27c when I started work at 5pm, now it's a nice breezy 18, feel good.
Fuck me, I am actually loving the Edinburgh fringe. Two weeks of literally working my ass off, and my bosses rock up with two huge flightcases literally filled with booze and pizza, I'm now pissed in a huge venue with Mean Girls playing on a 4k projector. Literally, the dream.
Its raining like shit outside and my windows are as open as they'll go and it still feels like its 30 degrees in my flat.
Didn't get to see a lick of the lunar eclipse due to cloud cover.
One month of cloudless skies Suddenly a rare lunar event? Yeah, time for thunderstorms!
Since I started working my first ever job (at the age of 25 :V ), I never noticed until now how fucking stupid customers can be... I mean WHO goes into an ITALIAN restaurant, orders NON-Italian food, and then has it returned and complains that it's not Italian food? lol and also on the same night, two PIPING-HOT plates (food untouched) came back to me because the customers complained that the food was "stone-cold".... That was probably the biggest feast I have ever had in my life :V
Welcome to the hell known as Hospitality. Thats twice now its went from "TOO HOT" to "All the water" and the rain doesn't even last. What on earth is going on?
Yeah, last night was clouds. We are cursed to never get a good view of just about anything the sky. Mars, Eclipses both Solar and Lunar, Comets, Meteorites... the list goes on.
It's taken me 4 years, 1 degree (almost 2), and countless "learning to write scientifically" lectures... But I've finally used EndNote and I'm a new man, just in time for my final thesis. Can't believe I ever thought I was too good for it.
Why is this country so relentlessly dull
I saw a tweet earlier that read "To all of you who endlessly complained about the weather, I hope you're happy now." :V
Has anyone actually said yes to trying the new coffee blend at Costa?
Didnt know there was one?
So my mum's friend's son has been found guilty of two rapes and possession of child porn...
Good heavens
