    Not answering your emails either eh?
    I can't get on the Core portal since registration week, I'm behind on nearly two months pay by now :mad:

    Thats pretty bad alright.
    In fairness to them I did get a reply last week, but it only added confusion to the issue, and now I'm completely in limbo while I await Salaries and HR and SAA to resolve it amongst themselves.


    So after waiting a week, I emailed SAA to try sort it myself, and I received the fastest response to an email from them EVER!
    Excitedly I opened the email, only to discover the following response:

    Please note that I am out of the office on leave.

    For Postgraduate Research queries please contact PGRProgression@ul.ie.
    For all Science and Engineering Registration queries please contact xxxxxxxxx@ul.ie.
    For genearal queries please contact SAA@ul.ie


    The irony is that I can get a response from SAA quicker when they are not in the office than when they are, and the replies are still as useless! :mad:

    The traffic this evening was nuts. It took me 45 minutes to get from the new Music and Dance Building to the Schuman. One of the security guys suggested that a set of traffic lights was the cause of the delays.

    Traffic here seems to get worse and worse, or is that just my imagination?!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 239 ✭✭thats not gone well


    Traffic here seems to get worse and worse,

    indeed i've never seen it so bad as today. especially when it was backed up towards the pay car park behind schuman(?).

    on a side note if you do drive, and you see other cars with dipped lights on,
    check your own. if they're not on TURN THEM ON

    this fúcking co-op is going to drive me up the wall.

    having nothing to do in work is not as great as you might think .
    girrrr
    also having to come into work on fúcking Saturday and Sunday is not cool :mad::mad::mad:
    what i wouldn't give for a week in ul at the moment just to relax and get back to normality :rolleyes:

    on top of that i'm going to miss the match 2night which i would most probably be at if i was in limerick

    o and did i mention that i have no bank holiday weekend this weekend .

    i can't see how this is going to get any better soon the only good point is that i'll be finished in 9 weeks hopefully :cool:

    50c for just a cup of hot water when I'm sick? :(

    Is this normal or am I just out of the loop when it comes to Irish prices? :rolleyes:

    Also, nearly got knocked down on the way home in the pouring rain by some FOOL who neither indicated nor paused to let me finish crossing the road AND had the gaul to beep at me... Enraged isn't the word..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,200 ✭✭✭Mindkiller


    I'd love to know why it's necessary for the library to succumb into total darkness ever hour or so for a few minutes.

    Also, **** having two or three essays due within the space of two weeks.

    Where?! :eek::confused:

    Anyways, people who stroll into a lecture 10+ minutes late. :mad:
    Why even bother turning up?!

    Heneghan had the right idea. "2 minutes late? Feck off!" :P (He put it a bit more eloquently than I did, but you get the idea)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 330 ✭✭diddley


    Where?! :eek::confused:

    In Eden. Is that normal nowadays or what? :/

    Does he even allow people who are a minute or two late? Last time I had him (3 years ago) he wouldn't let anyone in from the second he said "Lecture in progress" even in you were 30 seconds late.

    He started the lecture at 2 minutes past on the nose.

    Anyone who turned up any time after that would be turned away.

    Yeah, the shop was doing that for my friends and I last year.

    "Yo! Shut it!"

    Followed by "I'm handing out the jewels here folks!"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,177 ✭✭✭TheTownie


    Anyone brave enough to start a thread on the lecturer in question?? It would be near enough the same title "Official bitch about......" I'm sure it would be just as popular as this thread is! :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,652 ✭✭✭✭Busi_Girl08


    To the twonk who just roared "I WANNA TOUCH YA!" in the library just a few seconds ago,

    You are not funny. You are not cool. You are a moron.

    Now shut up, **** off, and please do not reproduce.

    Being put into a project group with 2 other girls who already know each other really well, live together, etc.

    We started off with one company, easily accessable information, I went off and did a load of research on it, read over its annual report, etc, then when we met up during the week, they told me that they decided to use a different company, one that is virtually impossible to get up-to-date financial information on :mad:

    This fecking thing is due in Week 11 :(
