What's making you feel like shit today?
I had to get up at 4.30 to leave at 5.00 to get to Birmingham for a 7.30 meeting. Not impressed.

Alt: ketchup or brown sauce?

If I do, then I get a hotel the night before.

I hear what you say. `
Trouble is in the private sector you can't say much about it unless you are the top man. If my senior mgmt want to do this sort of thing, and they frequently do, then your arse is in the meeting at 7.30.

I would have gone up on the train the night before, first class, gone out for a curry and got a bit shedded and stayed in a hotel. And they'd have paid for all of it.

That may be the difference, here that's a perfectly legitimate thing to say to anyone,
you're not making any trouble or being akward, just suggesting something that could help a number of staff.

fucking hell
we have 7.30am meetings all the time. ditto meetings that start at 7.30pm and go on overnight. if you're on a tight deadline to completion for contract races or tax deadlines or a court hearing etc etc, you have no choice.

this is how big businesses work.

it's also how they pay for the public sector!

My issue with apple is they have made an unupgradable, unfixable laptop.
I just think its unethical. Sure its less work for people like me but if I had just spunked out £2k on a laptop only to be told "sorry your hard drive has failed after 18 months (which they do ALOT!) No you can't put in a new drive, either pay us a daft amount of money or buy a new one" Id be pretty pissed of. Also the soldered on ram thing is fucking gay. Toshiba did it on a few laptops and if the ram failed you had to buy a new laptop, which sucks. No expansion slot so no ram upgrades possible either unless you buy them at time of purchase. £160 for 8gb ram which is about 5 times what it should be.

Its a real pain though
I fix it myself its done same day. Apple don't do onsite repair so we drop it off at a repair center who send it off. Usual turn around is 2 weeks them we have to drive back out to newquay to pick it up. 2 weeks without their laptop turns the staff member in to an even bigger twat. Then they get it back to find Apple have wiped their drive and they have not got a backup because they are morons.
