Got a meeting later about my employment, which I'm hoping will work out well. How's the road trip stuff coming?

Too much time driving, not enough time with family. The usual moaning and kvetching. It would be nice to make an actual sale once in a blue moon though.

Good luck with your meeting, luv! Are we talking promotion to something like Minster of Discipline?

But after 3 years working for this company technically as a temp, they're FINALLY thinking of employing me properly, giving me more hours and benefits. When we have only 6 months of the contract left to run. So no job security at all. Which I hope to use to my advantage and wrap the bastards around my little finger to get EVERYTHING I want!

# I love how naive his comments were
does he think that for each CD sold she gets given a few quid the next day by the record shop owner or something?

I would have thought having a daughter in the record industry would give you a vague understanding of how royalties work. but apparently not.

I for one download all her music illegally. I would rather fund terrorism than fund her drug habit.

I had a theory about this - that Toploader were a bit like Sauron and the One Ring
