Listen to the whole interview for context, nothing like an AA sound bite to get the knuckle draggers fired up.


I thought I did well to listen that long


The grab is completely out of context, Koch was talking about the staff in membership and head office who have copped a torrent of abuse from people waiting for membership packs, the change from ticketing to electronic etc. It's been poorly handled by the club, something members aren't accustomed too as our communication is usually very good from the club, but abusing Sally or Tim in the membership department isn't on and he had every right to say so.

I laugh but it gives me the shits too.

I fired off an important email and hit send before analysing it thoroughly, I had put a code in brackets and the code ended in B.

For some reason when B is the last letter before a bracket it automatically turns itself into 8) .

It was like I was taking the piss, luckily the recipient has a sense of humour.

Don't worry Spargo, you can use the pet bed yourself whenever you're in the bad books with the missus. :lol:

I remember the old man spending the best part of his only day off in a over a fortnight making a dog kennel, it was the absolute Taj Mahal and the dog wouldn't have a bar of it, we stayed away from dad that night.

A couple of chicks were talking about a gold digger they know as I approached the kitchen and I was having a little snigger to myself about the convo, one of them says to me "What about you Lightning, you have no morals, what would be your age limit you'd go up to so you could cash in?".

Is it just me or did anyone else read the last bit in their head like it was being spoken by the voice over narrator in an 80's American sitcom?

I have to laugh but it's frustrating too.

I get paid monthly, I had a personal loan that was through my bank and they used to take $219 out of my pay each month to go towards the loan.

The loan was paid off about 5 years ago but still when I get paid I get $219 paid into my savings account and then the rest of my pay paid into the same account, even when I do an expense claim and work reimburses me it pays $219 and then the balance into the same account.

I've rang them numerous times to ask why? They tell me it's my work that splits it but it clearly doesn't and how ironic that it is the exact same amount as what my loan repayments were.

It doesn't affect how much goes in there, it just does my OCD levels no good seeing it each time, they are useless to deal with.
