Paperweight.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Dont you just love RM, FFS :left:

When my ex wife did ten years in her job she got a £2k bonus and we had a meal out to the value of £150. That was back in 1995 as well :roll:

We should be thankful, they'd be looking to get rid of us just before 10 years is done :nervous

Got back from delivery today and my 10 year service award is sitting on my desk. Dated 20th of October 2011. Been sitting in my managers office for the last 17 months. Letter in it says that we appreciate and recognise your hard work you have done in the last 10 years. What do you say to that?
Thinking about returning it to sender and they can shove it up their arse!!!
