Well after I got sacked recently from one of the bar jobs I had, that I was
only doing out of a sense of loyalty to the man, he was very F'ing rude to
me, apparently the previous night whilst drunk I had been trying to persuade
the barman to give me a discount, apparently I put pressure on him... one of
my specialisms is putting and easing off pressure, it is something I was
taught whilst in sales. (more to reduce pressure) that wasn't pressure...

So, I adjusted their website slightly... <a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://www.KickersNC.co.uk" target="_blank">www.KickersNC.co.uk</a> it was quite
cool but the style sheet went walking and the text got changed slightly...

Hehehe...I don't think I'd go quite that far.....Besides, if my old boss has
even the slightest molecule of sense, he's already contacted the web hosts
to change the passwords to everything......

I thought my English wasn't all that bad, but now I found a
new meaning of the word slightly...

Interestingly enough, I've just noticed that less than 48 hours after I
walked out, his website is no-longer online.....What a shame.....
His business was about to collapse around his ears anyway.....Traditionally
he was a laundry engineering company (building laundrettes), and he decided
to branch into online selling of domestic appliances.....But just recently,
the website was the only side of the entire business that was still making
money.....It was propping everything else up......The guy was getting sued
left right and centre by laundrette owners who either hadn't had all the
work done that they'd paid for, or were left with dangerous and unsafe
laundry installations......
The alarm bells first started ringing in my head a few months ago when
bailiffs started turning up at the workshop demanding payments for various
things.....

It's a blessing compared to the normal mayhem and bedlam that goes on in
there.....

Hey, congrats, Sam - Heaven knows it's daunting at times to do the self-
employed thing (but you already know that) - six pounds an hour, eh ? For
a web-dude ? Wow, that's only $14.65 (Canadian) an hour - I'd pay that
for someone fresh out of high school for straight text-to-HTML
conversion, but usually the minimum here is $20 an hour for basic HTML
(XE.com tells me that's 8.19 GBP an hour)

One of the nicest things about being self employed is having the ability
to tell your client's that they're "fired" cuz you don't have to put up
with crap like that. Fortunately, I've only had to do that twice or so,
but the expressions on their face / tone in their voices was worth it

Hello!

Welcome to reversed sleeping patterns and hardcore Trisha and Richard and J=
udy=20
sessions.

Funnily enough I did the same thing but at the tender age of 21, chucked aw=
ay a=20
really good job with good pay and pension, because I'm not suited for it. I=
=20
can't work in that enviroment.

Now, I live from wage packet to wage packet, never have much money, (but am=
=20
always warm and have food), and far happier than I was four years ago
