    Will I or wont I still have a job in 3 months?

    Yes that shop (where I work) I was gonna buy has pretty much been sold, price agreed, stock valued and passed......Azz told he has to get out of the flat above (having only been there since 01/01/05)
    There's 4 of us staff and we're all thinking the same.
    The reason for this thinking is due to the .........erm.....Ethnic group the new owners belong to........so we either gonna lose our jobs or learn to say "Thank you! come again" and "PLease this is a shop not a library please now thank you"



    So I'm in teh markey for new work, thinking I might go back on my own

    I'll never shop in your shop then... Can't stand bad-mannered shop attendants.

    Can't stand englishmen too, but that is a completely different matter.

    No, I rarely say thank you, I generally say "Cheers" , but that's cos I'm a common Englishman

    They'll probably just sack you for your prejudiced attitude. Racial stereotyping isn't cool.

    I know this 'cos I saw it on one of those dumbass American shows all those fat bottomed yanks watch.

    @Dave....... Yeah I know that

    @Cheese...... You're so predictable, I was'nt being racist or predjudice, merely stating fact. If you think I'm being racist then it's more likely your own racial tendancies trying to cover up by accusing other people

    What?
    It's true, they will want to change things to their own way, bring in family members, which is the usual course or action when this particular ethnic group take over a shop.
    I never said they would sack me cos I'm white, I simply meant thats how they work, whether I'm white, black , chinese or Samoan, they do like to keep it "In the family"
    Anyone who disputes that is either not very worldly or simply saying whats politically correct for the sake of it

    Sorry, I'm about to lose the only job I've ever liked and I'm a bit pissed off about it, I think thats fair comment.
