excellent timing
Ideas on how best to flounce out of my job are most welcome. I was thinking of a rifle in the belltower and blood on the quad.

afternoon
how was your "train journey"?

Was it one of those trains which stops at every station?
My mum refers to those as 'dog' trains.

Don't know why I thought of that.

Dog. Dogs. Dogging...oh yeah.

oh, I'm still on the train but hurrah for Interweb phone things.

We're not allowed guns on campus

Throw red pens and students at your boss til s/he cries?

What, you're "on a train" now?
How can you post while having sex with Enzyme? Is he that crap? I'm surprised.

I quite like my boss
it's most of the students I can't abide. And HR. And the uni exec. And the policy makers. And the cafeteria is shit.

@CHCB
At least you have a cafeteria.

Not here.

Ok
So throw students at HR til there's nothing more than a bloody heap of mashed corpses and then stand victoriously on top of it, with a mwahahaha and a glint in your eye?

They'd probably get the hint.

Seriously - Uni HR is shocking. I was talking about constructive dismissal to them here and they had no idea about what the law was. I'd googled for about ten minutes on it and knew more than them... Unions, that's what you need.

Edit - the campus food here is pretty good. I just had nice curly chips from the student place and ate them in the lovely botanic gardens. I'll miss the gardens and the chips, the holidays and the pay and that's about it.

And you've got
an office to yourself.

I share a space the size of a midgets jockstrap with a portly gentleman from belfast.

my office
is no compensation.

(Enzyme says hi, by the way. He's standing beside me eating the biggest sausage roll I've ever seen.)
