What are we all up to today?

[Blackshear]

Woke up this morning, 6:30.
Had a nice warm shower, put on my headphones and ate breakfast.
Watched some BlackAdder, then warmed up the bike.
Decided I need winter gloves or something, goddamn it's cold down Eskdale in the morning. For Auckland, anywho.
Got to work at 7:55, started undoing my boots, WHEN...
"We train-a new guy, you go home rest-u."
'Oh... Oh ok. Still working tomorrow, right?'
"..... Nooooooo."

Faggots.
Got no monies, YAY! Well, I lie, I actually have $10.32.

I'm gonna go walk to the plant store and ask if they have any money trees, anyone keen? Got nothing to do today lol.

What sort of work arrangement is that? I don't think they can just tell you to fuck off like that with no pay AFTER you have turned up. They could at least flick you 50bux for the inconvenience, thats lunch and a tank of gas.. a phone call the night before wouldn't have gone astray either.

Sorry sorry, I meant I only have 10 monies in bank. I BETTER be getting paid for last week tonight. If not, well. I'll get angry, with nothing to lose.
They're Chinese/Asian/Japanese, so different work ethics I guess. Apparently I was replaced on Friday, go figure.

You have a contract or the like. You cannot just be replaced. The Employment tribunal ($70) helps make that very clear to employers.

I have all these days off! I work 2.5 hours in the morning from 0730 till 1000 (and make enough to live off ;) )
BUT I HAVE NO BIKE :(
only four more weeks I can sit my 6F and buy a new 600 :D

So for the rest of the day im going to work on my garden :) Unless someone wants to take me for a spin, pillion stylez... or loan me a bike for the day? PLEASE?

Nope :(
Just rocked up two weeks ago and gave them my IRD and bank number.

Either way, isn't the new sacking rule in their favour?
