There's no need to be like that, if nobody knows then why would someone say :hmmmm OK, just don't go in or maybe you could get a lift from one of your collegues (but with your attitude I don't think many would be too willing).

I'm not the only one. There are quite a few p*ssed off ppl too. C'mon now its RM we're talking about not Oxfam. My attitude is calm compared to some, especially after a few managers have said "get a taxi". Would you be calm?

No I would not be calm - but I certainly would not criticise anyone on this forum after all as the bit at the bottom of every page says.

Just had a note put through my door by the wife of the bloke that gives me a lift in, he won't be going in tomorrow, not well, he were'nt looking to good on Wednesday, so I've got a 3 mile walk in tomorrow, I guess that will help me walk off the excess food and alcohol :angel
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets
