He's going to set up a sit down, with he, myself and the department managers who 'bullied' me, for a discussion of all my points.
We will bring up the issues with the Principals of the Firm should it come to that.

Emergency loss of internet...weather-related but I now have two more bills payable from my accounts...

I kept finding odd bills I need to change.

What avon wrote reminded me of something I need to ask Brit-wise about chocolate digestive biscuits - are these chocolate flavoured or chocolate coated? I often hear them mentioned on UK tv shows, and wonder what their go-tos are?

Chocolate covered, with a choice of milk or dark chocolate
Harder to find, but there are also ones with mini chocolate chips

Provigo(I think) has some on their own brand...imported and re-branded McVitie's UK ones...we got some before Christmas in Montreal...

Fortinos (local Loblaws chain) got Bourbons in recently too

@Lynn49 Their system thinks we should just be able to do split shifts between stores. A few hours when busy at one and a few hours at another. A lot of other stores can do it because they are close to other stores. Our closest store is 4 hours away but our manager can't seem to get that across to them.

Nat, Peek Freans used to have REAL chocolate covered digestive!!!! My very favourite! But then they changed to "chocolatey-flavoured" ones. Yuck! Yuck! And Yuck!!!!

Glad I have heard of some other brands I can look for!

It's like "strawberry-flavoured." If it's got real strawberries- heaven!!! If it's artificial BLICK!!!

Anyway here's the ottoman I ordered from wayfair.ca to go along with the bean bag chair. The bean bag chair is still due to ship soon.

Ok, now that I know what to look for, I see LD has them

Will have to get some next trip there - along with a Flake bar, of course!

Well, I'm in an up all nighter, gah!

Happy Wednesday, all!

So a dirty van can be turned into art - this is from Ukraine (which is what the word says)

They are the choc flavour ones made for import to various countries (has the Brit flag) rather than the real ones.
It is like the 'British style Heinz beans' with the watery sauce - just wrong lol

This is why the Brit shop gets so much of my money lol
