They've all got ITKs on speed dial. Though for most it comes from Twitter.

Have RAWKites always been so obsessed with the club's wage bill/general finances, or is this only a recent craze?

Did you know Joe Cole earned £9.74 in the time it took you to type that message?

Is that how much you paid him for a 'favour'?

no need for that. Joe has standards, you know.

Any tips?

how easy is it to change a car cd player ive got a vw golf 07 plate basically whenever i play a cd i get CD error took it to golf they say the cd player is fucked and cheaper to put a new one in so is it possible to do it myself or is it only advisable to let a expect do it (golf quoted me £350 for new cd player and installation )

Halfords isn't too bad mate. You can get a decent Pioneer CD for £100 to £200 or so and they'll fit it for about £30. It's not that hard to fit, but if you haven't done it before they can take a while.

are halfords decent ? on some forums and most say their staff are clueless about stuff like this ?

To be honest, they can't really fuck it up, and even if they did, it's under warranty for the CD and the labour. Their CD players are the same as you could get anywhere else and the prices are just the same ( I think they even do a price match promise) and they're probably much cheaper than a local VW dealer would charge you to fit it. It's a while since they did one for me, but I never had a problem with it.

Just moved into a new building for work and need advise on writing an email to one of the big big BIG boos men about the dress code.

Everyone in our new building is smart casual where as we are still wearing a fucking hideous uniform (think bus conductor/security guard)

During the redundancy consultation, the guy I am about to email suggested scrapping the uniforms but this hasn’t been enforced by the supervisor.

I’m/the reat of the guys, are not expecting to come to work dressed in trackies or owt but the uniform is a joke!

Basically, I don’t want to seem like I’m telling the big boss man ‘he promised this and that’ but I do want to be assertive to the point he acts on the request of me and the team.

The (unfinished) email below gives and idea of what I want to say but sounds horribly cringe and cant send that shite. I'm a shocker with stuff like this. 

*********************************************************************************************************************************************

Good afternoon ****,

I know you’re a busy man, I don’t want to be a pest but... can we clear attempt to clear up the dress code concern.

When we all spoke during the consultation period, the idea of a  more relaxed attitude towards work attire was discussed ETC...

ps the new building is excellent, once weve picked up the new processes i'm sure everything wil begin to fall into place ETC...

[Barneylfc]

Depends what type of work it is and what the boss is like. In my work there would be no issue with emailing the top dog just a casual email along the lines of,

Hi xxxxx

Just wondering if there has been any further discussion or confirmation of the dress code yet? A few of my colleagues have asked about it and we would just like clarification.

Thanks


Or can't you just say to your supervisor about it?

[Immoral King Brian Blessed]

First of all, you need to proof read.

[Red Genius]

remove all that cringy shite about him being a busy fella, be more assertive by being confident.

Hi blady bla

I wanted to touch base with you regarding the dress code that was discussed during the consultation period... the idea of a  more relaxed attitude towards work attire to fit in line with the other employees in the building than the provided uniforms...

I look forward to hearing back from you with some clarity moving forward.

* use fillers about what's going on if you want - i wouldn't bother, i'd just get straight to the point.

I'd keep it simple just like this one. Leave all the chatty stuff out. Maybe add something at the beginning to remind him of the issue along the lines "Since moving into the new building there has been confusion about the dress code. Most of the staff are wearing smart casual clothing, while we are still wearing the uniform." Deffo keep the bit that other staff have asked you about it.

I'd talk to your supervisor first though.

[And Could He Play]

[NOTBORNIN1982]

Subject: Dress Code

Hi *********,

I wanted to touch base with you regarding the dress code concern that was discussed during the consultation period and the idea of a  more relaxed attitude towards work attire to fit in line with the other employees in the building. We recognised the need to be identifiable at the EMRCC in line with the HA however the rest of the RCC staff and I would like to fit in with everyone else at Core 27 and be less conspicuous.

I look forward to hearing back from you with some clarity moving forward.

Regards,

Well done mate, bet that's made your day - you can go tell your colleagues now and they can get you a bite to eat after work on them

[macca888]

Dear Mr Fucking High And Mighty,

I'm wearing jeans and trainees to come to work in tomorrow, possibly accented with a nice Fred Perry polo shirt.

What the fuck are you gonna do about it, yer massive shithouse?

You're not even capable of telling some nobhead supervisor that you've promised we can stop wearing these fucking Postman Pat uniforms because you're scared of him. Well guess what? I can have that c*nt off every day of the week so imagine how much I'm going to fuck you up when I see you.

You've got until 5pm to reply. If you don't, I'll take it that you're the massive fucking quim everyone in the office says you are.

And I want a pay rise, yer c*nt.


Kindest regards

[Barneylfc]
