He chucked it in an email 3 times last week but wrote "stack-holders", it wasn't that bad though as only about 25 people seen it and joked about it asking each other if we could hold each others stacks.

He has gone and done it again today, only this time customers have been included on the email, it is awesome as he's an arrogant prick.

There were a few more errors on it too I might add.


Stemhead, my mate says that all the time :lol:

A guy I used to work with sent an email out addressed to the CEO and other managers inviting them down the Coorong for a spot of fishing and camping one weekend. He spelt the CEO's name wrong :oops:

A sale could take a fair while to go through.... don't make any hasty decisions..... plus they may fire your current boss, and put you in charge!

I’m getting too old for this shit...
Mrs & kids were away for 2 nights, I’ve pretty much spent more time at the pub than everywhere else combined. Friday night I got stuck in a round with some serious drinkers, fast & furious pace & lots of it. Had three phone conversations Friday night when I got home that I simply don’t recall.
Saturday return for a midday start. Long day, not sure what time I got home but it was dark. Wake up this morning cursing my self as I hadn’t done any chores around the house. The family are returning at 10am...
I stumble downstairs & bugger me. I’ve cleaned the kitchen, emptied the dishwasher, washed the non-dishwasher items, done 3 loads of washing, hung it on the line & the rest on the clothes horses, I even prepped the ingredients for today’s roast & slow cooker.
Do not remember doing any of it.

On the Thursday afternoon of round 1 a friend posted in a group chat asking if anyone wanted to join their tipping comp, there was about two hours before the first game.

I asked my daughter and we both joined it thinking it was a bit of fun and it was using the same website as my work one and the safooty one.

I didn't pay much attention to it and there was not much to report in the group chat, I had a look at about round 15 and noticed people had used joker rounds and I had slipped down the order a bit but didn't really care, my daughter goes straight to work from school most Friday's so she'd missed a few games and was languishing.

I see a message in the group chat Friday night saying "sorry for the late notice, the comp was $2 per round so $46 all up and here is the a list of the prize money for the top 3".

The missus thinks I'm a bit dumb as she said "well surely you knew it would be some sort of cost otherwise it wouldn't be a comp", there were kids in it as well as their parents, I've been waiting to see if anyone kicks up a stink, they are really lovely people though so I guess everyone will just be more observant next time round.
