I hate my job. I hate it with a passion. I want to leave. But I need to have a job of some kind and there's sod all else out there.
Had my review today (after 2.5 mths, in readiness for the end of my probationary period so I was expecting the worst). Long story short, they've extended the probationary period by a month, for me to "demonstrate improvements". That's a bleedin' larf, you should see the crap that I'm expected to produce. It pains me, and I hate it.
Total, utter bollocks. I HATE MY JOB.
And this morning on the way to work, some bloke coming the other direction hit a really beautiful dog, and it was so dreadful to witness. I was taking the girls to school and fortunately they didn't actually see, but it was very distressing.
I was supposed to be at a meeting this evening in Epsom College. Where the bleedin' 'eck is it? I swear I've driven up and down every flipping road in Epsom and still couldn't find it. So I just came home again.
I've spent nearly 5 hours in my car today.
There, is that enough of a list of what's pissed me off today or do you want more? There is more, trust me!

Not peed me off, but just disconcerting.
Saw the Spinal Consultant this morning. Have to have an MRI scan on my neck and lumbar region. Says I have complex symptoms and that I'm "odd". Acute reflexiveness (if that's a word which it probably isn't) in my hands and rigidity in my legs which isn't normal.
Also said that my right leg is 1.5 cm shorter than my left and that it would have been like that since birth. However, I've just dug out a letter from a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon in Oct 1993 that says that my leg lengths are equal. So, is the previous one wrong or has something happened which has caused a 'shortness' and hence the pain I'm in?

If it makes you feel any better, most people do not have exactly the same length legs though usually its not that discernable.
I have a shorter left leg which I only found out about through horse-riding. I have to have one stirrup shorter than the other!
And there is nowt wrong with being short, well, it would be useful being a little taller but then at five foot exactly, I'm restricted on what sportsbike I can ride. _________________

i would seriously see an osteopath , favouring one side due to pain for example can cause twisting of the spine and hence uneven stance.
they tried to operate on my knee a few years back due to pain....i refused TG ...my back was the cause of the pain !...gluck with that  |

Athos says he always used to straighten them as long as the weren't kinked.... might be worth giving them the once over  _________________ Boxhill Chippendales

I'm not a great fan of the word 'chance' . Think that's the outfit that southern speed said supplied some stancions that snapped in the yoke Perhaps a call to local friendly onda dealer is called for, just for comedy value.  _________________
