    No. I probably should get some, but that stuff is hell expensive. We can afford it, but I have a really hard time justifying the price for that tiny little tub.

      I have never been across the way
      Seen the desert and the birds
      You cut your hair short
      Like a shush to an insult
      The world had been yelling
      Since the day you were born
      Revolting with anger
      While it smiled like it was cute
      That everything was shit.

        Re: THE RANT THREAD!

        Found out from my boss today that the place I'd submitted my job application to months ago (while still employed with my current company, because I was fed up) told her recently that I'd applied for a job with them. WTF. I feel like my rights have been violated in some way. I never even interviewed with these people. I didn't get the job. What motivation would they possibly have, months later, to tell her that I'd applied for a job with them? Other than they just want me to lose my job. Fuck people.

          I don't know how those things work in Australia, but here in Belgium that's called violation of privacy! Those people had no right to do that! IMHO, if they go around sharing private info on their (potential) employees, you're actually better off not working for them!

          I sincerely hope your boss won't give you any trouble for this.

            Unless you listed your boss as a referee?

              Yes, but that is an exception. And what Torey experienced is something completely different.

                He didn't list her as a referee, and no one but me knew he was applying for the other job. As far as I know you can only call referees when checking up on potential new staff. But I could be wrong. He emailed the Fair Work Ombutsman to find out.

                  Then it's bullshit. Ombudsman is the way to go. Or union? If you have a union.

                    Well, I hope for you guys that he will take this seriously. Even I know It's just not right. And I'm still a student!

                      Very high anxiety day for some reason.

                      I hoped I was done with this crap...

                      Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.

                                What did you expect setting a keyboard to canadian english would do besides give you french characters? Add extra "U"s or "E"s as needed?

                                ^Sounds a bit harsher than I intended it to on second reading. Basically the problem seems to be you are using canadian english programming on a US english keyboard. If it was a canadian english keyboard there would be accent characters on it. The question mark is shift-6 on canadian keyboards.

                                Trust is knowing someone or something well enough to have a good idea of their motivations and character, for good or for ill. People often say trust when they mean faith.
