You can't even just go in and watch a game of rugby there when they playing, as it for the school only!
Because private school piston wristed gibbons with buck teeth and inbreeding. That's why.

I also say the highlight of whole trip may just of been I went to the Rugby School , the place where it all started. Women in the shop there took me over to their museum and gave me a bit of tour as she seemed to think I was a rugby nutter. Also got a pic of me on their field, a big nono generally, as you not meant to even be in school grounds if not a pupil etc, she just said tell security man I said it ok. You can't even just go in and watch a game of rugby there when they playing, as it for the school only!
Even played there.

I've noticed no one seems to visit official Empire taverns for serious drinking. I question the Empire's longevity, deathstar or not.

Music between overs at a Test Match.
Fuck. Off.
If your attention span is so low you need entertainment for 15 seconds, piss off back to T20 shits and giggles.
this! the quiet hum of a test match crowd is one of its absolute joys, just fuck off back to fucking up rugby with your shit music

fluffybunnies at work who come to you a fortnight out from Christmas, saying they've got a change needing sign-off by January 17. FMD pal I'm on leave for three weeks during that period. And I'm literally the only one who can do that work.
And the files are wrong in 20% of cases, compared to my database...

That's the problem for you IT nerds isn't it? You control the systems and own the world except you are dependent upon illiterates to put in the actual data. And we're shit at it.
LOOOOOOOOOL!

The data is fine - it is the way it is organised in terms of column order
so this is, in fact, an IT fuckup, but not my fuckup.The actual issue is middle managers who have no fucking idea how to keep a project on time and on budget, or communicate to critical stakeholders (i.e. me) when they're doing system changes.
This was supposed to be completed a month ago. I got one email for the kick-off back in April and nothing since.
Dicks.

The important thing is your governance, project managers, change managers and PMO are earning their coin...

Don't forget consultants.
First against the wall when the revolution comes. Right next to lawyers
There'll be no one left to read the help manual back to you.
