It's Just A Bit of Dossing About...

It's almost 11 weeks since the store's been open.

At the very begging, in our induction in fact, our soon-to-be managers and team leaders spoke to us all about certain store morals and guidlines in which we needed to follow. Now,  the rules were put in place so the customers could see we are ready for work and ready to serve. E.g. Clean uniform, no phones on the shop floor and no stubble. 10 weeks in and it's all forgotten. Even one of the check out ladies has a moustache!

Originally, a 'rumble' would have taken place 2 times a day, 12 times a week. (Excluding Sundays)
The shop would be lucky if we did it twice a month.

Maybe I'm having a moan, maybe what I'm sayings right...


...I hope my manager dosen't have a blogspot account...

Insurance Company or Steriotypical What Nots...?

Insurance Company or Steriotypical What Nots...?
...You Decide For Yourself...


Right, I havn't posted anything in the last like 3 days, so technically I'm neglecting my blog. So, in good fashion, I'll blog about somthing that has annoyed me beyond words ~

#INSURANCE COMPANIES#

Now as you may have already read from my previous blog (Suicide Pigeons) I own a Rover 25, 1.4L petrol injection engine, which on September 2009, set me back £2,400 for my fully comp insurance. Now I didn't mind that it cost that much because I didn't have to pay it; my parents did as a birthday gift.
Now it's almost September 2010 and I'm going to have to buy a new years insurance for the car. I went onto GoCompare.com and Admril.com and STILL they're trying to charge me £8000!!! FOR ONE YEARS INSURANCE! JUST BECAUSE I'M SEVENTEEN!!!

My girlfriend, Stephanie, will hopfully be passing her test in September time/October time, so she'll be buying some much loved car insurance as well. I went back onto GoCompare.com and typed in all of her details for a Ford KA, 1.3L petrol engine, and do you know how much they charging her fully comprehensive insurnace at? £804 ONLY!!! BECAUSE SHE'S FEMALE!!!

 ...I think a much need sex change is in order...

So, I thought to myself, if a Ford KA will be a cheaper insurance cost than a Rover 25, I should just get insured on her car, no? No! It will still bump it up to about £2,400!

I re-ask you:

Insurance Company or Steriotypical What Nots...?

Steriotypical what nots!
