I was caught by a policeman with a speed gun, I was definitely going above 40 but honestly didn't think it was 72. Also there was a BMW that was in front of me the whole time so he was doing at least my speed.
Supposedly the policeman was pointing the gun at me and not him but that's just my word against his I guess... Also his written report confused a few immaterial facts like which lanes we were in.
I dunno, if I'd have had a dash cam I might've fought it.
Anyway... definitely need to invest in one of these:

It's so stupid. Because Tower Bridge is a 'monument' they don't have to make the signage or cameras as visible as they usually do. Spent over two hours just talking about Tower Bridge.
What a waste of my life

very true. most buses here in the UK offer free wifi – or at least all the local carriers I know in my ridiculous and affluent white power broker enclave.
There was a thread on that forum with pretty strong sexual undertones, and I did consider some of the more lush plush toys as a purchase. But to answer the question, I've never indulged.KEN-JENNINGS wrote:

I did manage to get the reference, but didn't go back to watch the clip. Maybe another couple of months off-the-job and I'll be able to deliver with half the intensity and introspection.uziq wrote:

i think you're about there pocshy. androids never had to deal with graduate employment
So I have that interview for the short-term contract in about 2 hours, and I'm over here in a circle of hell Dante forgot about trying to decide if a jacket is too formal for this 'conversation' on a warm summer day.

shirt and tie. wear a trench coat. carry a gun.
Yeah, I decided eventually that a shirt and tie would suffice. Plus my tailored suit needs work now that I've changed body shape from weightlifting. So really if you ain't top you ain't shit.

Hope you do well. If you don't, you need to go on a bender.
bender should be a requisite regardless. Celebrate winning, celebrate losing.
Meeting went well. I think it's a good sign when they decide at the end to ask you about your post-graduation trip for 20 minutes instead of ushering you out the door immediately. It's a weird dynamic when there are absolutely no questions to guide the conversation. She just kind of picked up on things I briefly mentioned or would ask questions as she read my resume. Very relaxed, lots of smiles, a few jokes.
Best part is that the contract is for 9 months (not the original 3-4 I had thought), with the strong possibility of extension to 1 year no bullshit required, and from there they will hire full-time regular. Also, there are actually 2 positions on the table, not the original 1 I thought there was. Bonus odds.
And yes, I think when that call comes in I'll have a bottle of scotch ready to go.

the best sign is when they ask you how long your notice period is for your current job
but that sounds really good. you smashed it bro. here's hoping...

She actually did ask me exactly that question. "How quickly can you be in the chair," followed by "I will contact your references first thing Monday." Who knows though, competition might be stiff.

So they actually call to check on the references and not admire on the possible big names in cool companies on the resume? Well I'll be.
Good luck Pocshy!

I was planning on sitting on my ass and playing the new Metal gear solid on my day off tomorrow but I instead have to go to the local police station to get fingerprints done for my DHS background check since the agency I did mine for already didn't forward it to the FBI. Just hope they can do it there and not send me to the county sheriff's.
Sounds good Pocshy, I don't think they'd be contacting references unless they were about to hire you
I'm thinking of leaving my job, my notice period is 2 months and I'm pretty confident I'd find a new job in that time so I'm considering handing my notice in this week, before I've secured a job.
But maybe my confidence is misplaced and it's a stupid idea...
