*Now plays bash the boss from GFK's thread. Is there a bloodier version?
This 1 is weak. Plus the link doesn't seem to work anymore....

What is redundant?

Redundant is when you are paid a certain amount to leave the company, and they aren't allowed to re-employ someone to fill your old job, i think.

Fired but I can stay untill I have another job. According to my boss I'm not doing my work as I should. To many hours on projects and so which my superior (the architect ) thought I made. That b*gger kept changing stuff so that explained all the hours. The architect had on the same project like 2 days for searching out lighting for a building.  :blink:  I definatly need a beer now.

This is the first time I'm fired. I'm allready redundanted once.

Don't you just love real life. Why couldn't everything be nice and simple like in CS.  :(
Wishing you lots of luck in finding a new job Duvel, I remember spending six months unemployed when I got kicked out of college, it was fun for a while and then the money ran out  :angry:  :(

more funny would be to change all the dimensions on the drawings to inches, that way when they build it in metric it will be tiney!!!

Oh so true Sheepy. Thanks for the tip, me sniggers  :devil: I probably wont because I've never done that at any job. I'm just raised the good way.
And yes bro, it came out of the blue....I'll tell you the stuff l8er.
There was something about me and another not doing our jobs very well although it was the new programm that was giving us lots of trouble.

And Pendragon, although you are British (I'm Dutch) who knows, a long visit in the UK would be nice, it saves on travelmoney for the LAN  ;) . My English is quit allright if I may say so but I'll miss the gf I'm having at the moment probably the most, otherwise a long time in the UK with my best m8s would be excellent.

Thanks for the replys fellas. Atleast some nice things. If I'll be there the next LAN, I'm going to buy alot of Grolsch to forget about the whole thing. It shoulnd't be hard tho  ;) .

A bit of good news:
After me being fired I've contacted two agencys which searches for people for different kinds of businesses. One had 2 joboffers which suided me. Yesterday I had 2 interviews and the first 1 went great but the second was a bit weird.

The first 1 allready replyed and I can start there in 2 weeks. I haven't heard about the other one yet tho, same as the other agency. Finally some good news.

I'm going to have a good weekend probably  :cheers:

Last day at this workspot and I'm cleaning my comp and so and I've got a bit of time offcourse to post some (hopefully install F@H at a few more computers  :whistle: ). I allready had the BB speech, nothing much, he made it sound that I was leaving for my own purpose but okay. I couldn't be *rsed about that.
Tonight I've got a BBQ (with Grolsch) with a few of my best workm8s. We allready had it scheduled a while back (before I had the conversation with the boss) but still a nice way to say bye (a few of them I'll see again in the disco/pubs around here).
Tomorrow I've got a verbal exam somewhere in the afternoon about buildingconstructions so we'll see how that goes. Probably fine, depending on tonight   ;) . Tomorrownight the match Sweden-Netherlands, Sunday CSday and Monday starting at the new job.

Hopefully it'll go uphill from now.

Well Ice, the first day was to just get familiar with their drawing system so I could see if I could install F@H aswell. No chance though. My workcomputer is not attached to internet. I haven't found out yet how the emailsystem works, they use a program called Pegasus. Maybe I can connect my F@H somehow to it. So if any1 has the answer?

How was your day Ice?
