Marketing Company

Mainly involves telling engineers what to do, fucking around on the internet, totaly falsifying reports so big companys pay us much more than they should, and fixing fooked PDAs.

If my pay rise im due isnt a good few grand more a year, im off

Graceland-- I SHOULD be on that 34k too

Passed ALL the tests, totaly pissed it, they said ANYONE who passes the tests will get the job as most fuckers fail.

This time 1 more person passed than they had jobs for, so i WASNT given the job as they prefer older people, and all the others that passed were old coonts.

I wanted my 35k a year for doing foooook all, wouldve been ace

Ive been so angry ive never applied again even tho in theory im top of the list if i did

Damn you Wessex Trains

Anyhow, if all goes to plan il have another job/business thatl be good soon anyhow.
