Ahh gotta love tax. I was very carefull in asking my bosses for new salary to make sure i dont pay too much :)

The government gets enough out of me in petrol! And that is just in MY car, not my company car that they pay for petrol in.

I think i might join the navy though... something like a mechanic... working on enormous diesel engines.. the thought makes me tingle....
Say, if you're fat.. like me... and you wanna join the navy... are they gonna let you....
Anyone have the navy website? if there is such a thing.... where does one go to join?


you have to have a BMI within an acceptable range (iirc 19-25) , and pass a basic fitness test

so if your a big fat bastard who breaks a sweat walking to the letterbox, forget it...although, they are desperate for people at the moment i hear...

p.s. i like pizza, where do you work...i might order one from you....

Manager of a fast food place. Pay suprisingly isn't too bad but you get bloody fed up of putting up with snot nosed 15 year olds who think their king of the hill cause they felt up a girls tit and grew a pube.
