Have not got to look far, the circumcision joke which may I add was not funny, I like a Jewish joke as much as anyone, problem is you use it to try to provoke, a very big difference in my book, but if your that way inclined that would easily pass you by.

Judaism does not have the monopoly on circumcision pumphole, no idea how that joke was racist. It was more uglyist than racist. You are all over the place with this racism accusations.
Obviously you are not in the right emotional state of equalibrium to have a debate on the Israel/Palestinian crises. If you are from Jewish lineage which i was not aware of, then how can come into the argument from a balanced perspective. I am still waiting for the racist posts you accuse me of. |

Sorry your thread has been high-jacked The Bhoys.
I am being accused of racism here, i won`t be putting Pumphol down as a referee. |

Think you started it by the way, anyway my last post on here as your correct this has been hijacked, as for the racism I am not going to start trawling the forum but one post that did stick out when I read it was a load of anti semitic bile from irish C, Bazaar & Flush & then you chipped in with some comment for some reason which hardly seemed a response from someone who is not on their wave length in my opinion, but you have just said as I'm Jewish I have no right to be making a comment on the many threads that have been written in the last month or so, not sure you would say that to someone who was of the Islamic faith on the subject, anyway off to watch some TV I'll let you get on with it.

It seems that you are falling on your own sword here pumphol, you have zero evidence for your accusations of me being racist, even this is pure fabrication..
but you have just said as I'm Jewish I have no right to be making a comment I said no such thing. I said this If you are from Jewish lineage which i was not aware of, then how can you come into the argument from a balanced perspective. Hence the reasons behind your accusations of me being racist. You can only agree with the pro Israel posters pumphol, i am pro neither side. What upsets you pumphol is when i mention Israeli atrocities, and am not shocked by Hamas executing so called collaborators. I did however state that it should be a war crime. This is balance pumphol, you accusing those of who are not Israel lopsided of racism, is poor form. But if you are looking from from a biased viewpoint, then it is easily explained. |

My original post on this thread was just to wind pumphol up because pumphol was on the quiz show The Tipping Point a year or so ago and he suffered a brain fart with the question "What does C.V stand for?" he didn`t know Then he starts throwing all this racist ponk at me! talk about reaching tipping point! |

I often wonder how people on these quiz shows, like pumpy and SF, get to appear on lots of them? What makes them stand out on their application form? Noel Edmonds seems to be fussy though as I've not seen them on that.

The Bhoys, are you there fella?
 Any news/Updates? My last WP task was to write down a list of part time vacancies, take them to my advisor who would then apply for them for me (whilst i sit there)? I wrote down two. (One being my minimum requirement). The job she went with was part time (15hrs) at my local Corals. Yep, the bookies of all places! It took her/us over 1 hr to complete? (Who was i to ask her why she had to fine comb every word/sentence, then change my CV and take an age with the Cover Letter (all appreciated). My next task word for word..."dnb will find one job with an online application and bring this to the next meeting (3 weeks time) on xxx. We will again apply for it in the meeting." |

I sent my CV to William Hill years ago when I first moved up here. I wanted something to pass away the afternoons. Customer Service Assistant (cashier) in a small town is a piece of piss after being a manager for years in the east end of London. They give you a recorded test over the phone by asking you questions, and you have to press buttons to give the answer of your choice. Example: a customer is swearing and being rowdy in your shop. Do you: 1) Ask him nicely to be quiet 2) Tell him to shut up 3) Phone the police There was no option 4) Let the manager deal with it After all, that's what he/she gets paid for. You have to give the answer they want, which is obviously option 1)Ask him nicely to be quiet. Iirc, there were 50 questions with a time limit. You then wait for the operator to come back on the line and speak to you. She told me that my pass mark was high enough for an interview, and that the area manager would call me in 2 or 3 days as he's very busy at the moment. I waited 4 days before I phoned back. I was told that the area manager was very busy, but would phone me shortly. 3 days later I phoned again. This time I was told that the vacancy had been filled. I asked how this was possible as I had not had my interview yet. She said the area manager would phone me soon and that he was very busy. I told her to tell the area manager not to bother, and it was their loss, not mine. A few weeks later after two or three visits to the shop, I spotted the new 'Customer Service Assistant.' She had certain attributes that I was unable to offer, namely, big tits. Her sister was the other cashier, and they knew as much about horse racing and odds as I know about astrophysics. |

And in their lies the reality of today's "Customer Service Assistant." "Do you know anything about the betting industry?" NO. Congratulations, you've got the job  |

According to the website agency 10 people have applied for the job.
I applied for a job with Hills last year which like the Corals one took an age to fill in the online application. Following the automated email reply saying i was unsuccessful i sent an email to head office asking to explain the reasons in the form of a "constructive rant," as i felt i was a most suitable, worthy candidate. Like CMAT, it was their loss. They never replied! I showed my then ESA advisor the said email rant for which she commended my positivity? Must dash as i have a 20 minute window in which to hand in my "Drop and go sheet" to the Job Centre or i'll become another statistic of the benefits sanctions. |

really there should no such things as BENEFITS, you should nit be allowed to claim money that you have never earned, it's basically THEFT, and then people have the AUDACITY to MOAN about sanctions, there are plenty of jobs out there you are just not looking hard enough

In the interest of fairness I would just shoot anyone over 90 and refuse medical attention to anyone over 85.

No'12, I will rise above the bait.
However, I rarely think of the life of non luxury i could lead when the compensation that isn't forthcoming doesn't land on my doorstep. As for The Bhoys, his non posting speaks volumes. The fella must be slaving away on 12 hr shifts...Good lad! |

I went for an interview a few years back at some company and noticed that the environment seemed a bit "laddish".
Towards the end of the session the interviewer said to me, "do you have a maxim?" I said, "no, but I did buy FHM last month" |

it's not bait darts it's an opinion, you should't be taking tax payers money, money you didn't earn, it's not yours.

More humane to shoot the unemployed than let them starve or freeze to death imho. Although in the interest of fairness we'd have to shoot all convicted petty criminals first, plus anyone who couldn't afford to pay back the cost of accidental damages.

I have paid taxes for 25+ years (got a tidy pension lined up too) and never once in that time has it concerned me how other people choose to live.
By the way, I had what I thought was another spam call this afternoon...0203 I missed it as i was lapping it up at the leisure centre - Jacuzzi/Sauna etc... (put that in your pipe No'12). Just checked the number online to add it to my spam list and it's only Coral. I checked my emails and i've been short listed...Only applied yesterday!  I suppose Coral will phone me tomorrow with a bunch of Q&A's before deciding whether to consider me for an interview? |

Please note, the interview will take approximately 30 minutes and will be an informal ‘getting to know you’ session, talking through your CV and giving you more information about the role. There will also be some competency based questions around our core business values.
Can I please ask that you arrive 15 minutes prior to your interview and that you dress smartly, ideally a suit. I guess my darts shirt won't be fetching enough on this occasion? My charity shop for a 24hr loan of a suit it is then. |
