Red Wine

in a half pint glas. Compliments of P.

Was busy at work. Got tomorrow off.

Weather cold & wet.

It sounds as if I'm driving around in a bath tub with all the water sloshing around. Didn't hear anything for the insurance, so I phoned them. They will e-mail the engineer to move us up the list.

I realised something. Everyone knows that to keep paying the lowest insurance premiums one has to change insurers every year, because they put their premiums up every time a policy is renewed, but offer low premiums to new customers. One always has to be a new customer with a different insurer otherwise one gets ripped off. It works the same with salaries. Individual salaries don't increase, but new appointees get paid the current market rate, so the only way to have your slary keep up with the market rate is to get a new job. (Person A is paid the same salary since he was appointed in 7 years ago; all people appointed after him - in lower grade positions & with less or no experience - are paid more. Apparenly this is how it works, so keep your gob shut!)
