Post by: Richie London on 01 April 2009, 19:38:55
a friend just rang me to tell me his boss got his new audi a5 quattro delivered today,  with black nappa leather. yet he was laid off last friday due to cutbacks.
same thing when my x was carrying my eldest 15 yrs ago, she got made redundant yet a month previous the company paid 40k for a racehorse.

I know Vampires require the dark

Basically unlike some people here I work in the same room as my boss and talk to him a lot, infact I am the longest serving employee he has ever had (over 16 years).

Had a bit of a shouting match today but then I can unlike some people here
