I've got sun burnt feet.

But I'm half pissed and just about to go go out again!

I dyed my hair various shades of blue (yay).

But now my nails and towels are always blue.

Also, not entirely sure how it'll go down at workout meh.

I like that... very awesome.

Just before I went bald to the point there was no hiding it I dyed my hair blue. Sadly I skipped the part of the instructions where the Vaseline comes into play and ended up with a blue head. And blue pillows, and blue sink etc.

Whoa! Davpaz is busting out the yarn (as opposed to 'wool') terminology. +100 Mimi points. Your hair is beautiful, flis. Like a mermaid.

I know my shit.

Also: Flis, your hair is awesome. I would do that if I had any hair left

That looks awesome, watch out for when it fades, though, you go grey.

Thanks guys

It's already grey, Bobby, that's why I dyed it... Stupid getting old. Anyway, silver/grey is totally in now so it'll be fine!

Oh is that how it is done?

My boss was working from home today and replied to an email that I'd sent to a few people saying "Ross, we'll talk about this email tomorrow"

Is it a Yay, or is it a Nay? Tune in tomorrow for the thrilling conclusion of this ongoing saga.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Tue Jun 07, 2016 19:13

What was in your email?

TheVision · **Posted:** Tue Jun 07, 2016 19:33

I was basically slagging off another company but it may have undermined my boss... Unintentionally of course, but then she may agree with me? We'll see.

I bought some cheap tee-shirts from Matalan for my holiday in Spain last month. We went out one night to a really nice place that had these white leather chairs, food was great and we had a really good time. When I got to leave I noticed my chair was stained red from the tee-shirt! I hadn't sweated and there was no dye on me.

Love your hair, flis!

Just had dentistry. The filling didn't hurt, and the crown didn't hurt even without anaesthetic, but holy shit on a stick the cleaning part hurt. So much blood!

GazChap · **Posted:** Wed Jun 08, 2016 12:31

Yeah, I've had numerous fillings and two extractions and they don't bother me at all (with anaesthetic, obvs.) but the scale and polish they do while they wait for the anaesthetic to kick in is some of the most uncomfortable shit ever.

I just close my eyes and let them get on with it.

Almost there... I've got a probation review now as I've been here for more than 8 weeks now.

Fingers crossed I don't have to clear my desk on the way out.

Mimi · **Joined:** 27th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 19561

I wouldn't worry about that. They're getting you into the meeting room just so they can clear your desk whilst you're not looking. You can collect your comedy mug and collection of stolen highlighter pens outside. Simon has stolen your USB desk fan.

TheVision · **Posted:** Wed Jun 08, 2016 20:32

Well, it turns out it's a nay. My probation has been extended by four weeks. In fairness, they were really nice about it and praised me for loads of stuff. Just some other stuff, including that email, that aren't so great.

They also tried to give me a "good" in their tick boxes for attendance. I argued that I've not had a day off so that should be a "very good".

They changed it... Small victories I suppose?

Today has been shit.
