    That really is poor behaviour by the company, Flix. I hope that you are able to find alternative work elsewhere.

    Flix, do you know which competitor nicked their best client? Maybe you could go work for them. IMO, that would serve your former employer right! ;)

    If they can't even keep a phone number safe, then maybe thats why they lost the client...

    Sorry to hear that Ofelix. Hope you find something better soon.

    Speaking of university, my 3rd year PhD assessment is tomorrow. I feel like I should be stressed out of my skull, but I'm not. In fact I barely thought about it today. Odd, I was far more stressed about it last week. I am so not complaining though.

    My cafe isn't all that vegetarian friendly. Mostly rice or rice plus veggies. I'd go with eggs but then I'd have to watch my cholesterol. The options for wheat protein aren't cost effective and soy protein is a rarity.

    Ofelix: Damn corporate types. From what I understand the reason they pull crap like that (firing on Fridays, having you come into work to get laid off) so it lessens the chance of "violent retributions". They figure if they give you less time to think about your state, they won't have to worry about you. I think just so wonderful on their part to assume we're all capable of such violence (maybe it says something about how the corporate world handles terminations). Anyway I'll stop before I wonder outside of Whatnots.

    I wonder if I could be considered a vegetarian, since the animals I eat only ate plants while they were still alive. :evil: :p

    Yay for Jiggley Ball. :rolling:

    Got not much to say today except that we have a Play School show at work this morning and bizarrely, since it's somewhere in the middle of the school term, we have about 600 people coming in! :confused:

    Two full days of playing with Macs.

    The mere fact of installing OS X instead of that crappy Winblows is more refreshing than a 12-pack of ice cold Jolt.

    I swear this is the first time I've ever heard of white tea... I really want to try it. Curse the stupid American coffee fixation, tea is way better.

    Actually, she is a member of the Church, and her parents are in a prominent position in the area. Mind you she lives three provinces away from me...

    man, the flights from here to the U.S are expensive :eek:

    crap. I hope my parents don't force me to fly straight to Spain. I mean, if they hadn't told me that I could pass the U.S first then I never would've told my ex. As it is, it'll really make her sad (and piss me off) if I suddenly have to tell her that I wont be able to visit after promising to :bang:

    Good afternoon BoM.

    Indeed!

    Can't say I remember ever having white tea though.
