    Yeah I'm getting more cash too. Which is nice... but I wouldn't care too much as long as it paid my bills.

    I think a lunch would be a nice idea since its a limited amount of time (as we'd have to get back to work) and there wouldn't be too much booze involved.

    You's can all send me a PM if ur interested in a lunch meet to celebrate getting the call and leaving our jobs and I'll try and organise something :)

    So you are not only the board liasion officer but now party planner, a man/woman of many talents :):):o

    Not into any of that nonsense so you can keep your sleaze to yourself Mr Fug.

    I actually typed Mr Fun by mistake there. Maybe it was a freudian slip and I really would be delighted to accept the invitation :eek:


    Lol... i never told him I promise!! :D

    Let me know what you's all think about lunch anyhow :)

    Do you think we'll get a part paypacket at the end of march or for a full month's? Hoping for the latter :p

    Yeah we will get paid, I read it somewhere in the pack.

    If you start after the 15th you don't get paid until the following month!!:eek:

    I think she means whether we'll get paid for 3 weeks or the full month even though we're starting a week into the month. :)

    yeah, but also, in some places they have a certain date, so that you only get paid for what you have worked up until then. Ie. we could end up with 1 weeks pay and working the rest in lieu. Sorry, that just sounds really confusing :confused: Better save some money this month just in case :eek:

    Yeah, it's gonna be tough. I finish my current job on the 27th Feb, and won't be paid by the PSNI til the end of March. A full month without a wage should make things, interesting. :(

    Good luck to you guys with spouses, a mortgage and kids. eek.

    I'm just off the phone with a lovely girl in External Appointments. She rang the central pay section for me and assures me that if we start on the 8th, we will receive our pay at the end of the month and will not have to work any weeks in lieu first. 3 weeks work = 3 weeks pay. That's a relief! :cool:

    They're always nice to me because I ooze charm. :rolleyes:

    Too much time on my hands?! Probably. :P
    I had to ask though. I needed to know whether or not to set aside some cash from my February paypacket. Thankfully I don't have to.

    Oh yeah most of you get paid monthly, which shouldn't work out too bad. I'm an unsalaried peasant and get my wages weekly, which means this months pay will be GONE by the time the month ends.

    Also... when I was in primary school a girl liked me (just the one) and wanted to go out with me but then asked me my name and when I told her she ran away and never spoke to me again! :(

    Haha, well apparently people like it now so its all good! :D

    The hassel us girls have to put up with...:mad:

    In the gym trying to improve on my running and I have this greepy old dude watching me, making comments here and there. A man would never have to put up with this.

    If he only knew what I was training for that would shut him up.

    He is so close to getting a smack in the mouth.

    I really don't understand it, I go to the gym looking a mess. I throw anything on, my dad things he is just lonely. I feeling like I am being groomed.

    LOL Yeah i've no idea what that's like but I imagine it must be hard to workout when u have errr not sure how to put that in a non blokey sexist kinda way*... but you get my point :D

    *Oh I know how to put it... 'when you require a good quality sports bra' :P

    To be honest I think girls can look really attractive when they're working out, but its still not acceptable to be letching and making comments.

    If he was just to glance at you and think to himself 'wow she looks hot' then you mightn't mind so much, but to make you uncomfortable like that really isn't fair :(
