Going through the horrible redundancy process in our office. Not very nice!

It sucks!

Chief · March 13th, 2009, 06:51 PM

I find out about our redundancies on Tuesday, so my sympathies to you Mo. Glad to see you've turned it on its head and are looking to the future positively. It's so easy to get upset about the whole thing.

Good luck in yer new course you old codger. We both know you're only there to perv on the talent!

If people cant talk about either club without the "usual nonsense" then ban the users in question, not the subject.

One final point, the media in Scotland/the UK make much more of an issue of the sectarianism thing than it actually is IMO.

Oi! Shad-ap! Nae Old Firm chatter here, arite? Them's the rules, if you don't like them, don't post in this thread.

Thanks for the backing, Legs - glad to see sense still prevails here

Mo, really sorry to hear about your job, but tres congratulations on being accepted into the PG course - brilliant stuff!

Chief · March 19th, 2009, 01:20 AM

Had to look that one up ther Chief (shiznit)

did you think that word off the top of your head or was it from your oxford dictionary.

1. shiznit
shortened term for "that is the shit, isn't it ?"
"that taco's the shiznit!"

2. shiznit
adj. 1) the best; 2) the greatest, in a certain category or universally; 3) gaddam' phenomenal, bi-atch!
Master says, "I'm the shiznit! Hell'z yeah!"

3. shiznit
More "urbanized" form of the shit. Basically means really, really good. Other versions include:hella cool,tight, the best.
Damn Tony! Your new ride is the shiznit! Lemme borrow it to drive by Mya's

milton · March 19th, 2009, 01:41 PM

Just though folk would be interested to know that Glasgow & Edinburgh are now uploaded on Google streetview.

maccoinnich · March 19th, 2009, 01:56 PM

Oooh cool. I pretty much never have to leave the flat now. Shame though that the way they make it means it doesn't cover pedestrianised streets.

Objekt. · March 19th, 2009, 03:02 PM

Belated congrats to you M_Riaz.

Chief · March 20th, 2009, 12:50 AM

Aye Mo, thanks for asking. Found out on Tuesday that I'm safe. Pretty scary though - couple of guys in my group who joined at the same time as me have been made redundant. Really brings it home.

Shiznit is a word I probably heard used somewhere and decided to adopt. The wifey chuckles every time she hears me use it, but hates it when I use the actual "s" word. Go figure...

M_Riaz · March 20th, 2009, 01:09 AM

Cool... good on ye Chief, you'll be down there for another wee while to suffer the London smoke.

Google says its the 1st day of spring today,still a bit chilly though.

Jamandell (d69) · March 20th, 2009, 02:40 AM

I'm on the Google street maps view thingy! The car drove past me a few months back...

Privacy row as Google brings Street View service to UK

March 20 2009
Google is facing fresh privacy complaints after launching a new service in the UK that allows web and mobile phone users to see 3D views of 25 cities including Glasgow, Edinburgh and Aberdeen.
Using the search engine's maps, Google Street View uses photographic images of public roads and major landmarks in British cities to create a 360-degree map that web users can click on to explore.
The company has spent almost a year collecting images, with a fleet of cars with roof-mounted 360-degree cameras crawling along nearly 23,000 miles of British roads.

gorgu · March 20th, 2009, 02:11 PM

We have had that service in Sydney for about six months now, not sure what the fuss is
