I'm Back Again (1 Viewer)

[Ally]

Hi all

Just to say hi - I'm back again. Got a new job, (finished my life sentence with the NHS). After the most appalling treatment, I decided to leave. Have landed a fab job with a commercial mortgage company in Brentwood so am getting used to commuting for the first time ever!

Am working with Access and Excel all day and I love it!

Good to be back!

Ally

Welcome back to the forum Ally - How long has it been since you've been on?

 

[Ally]

HI Bob

Several months since I posted a couple of times in the watercooler and probably over a year since I did anything Access wise here.

 

[MrsGorilla]

YAY! I get tired of being the only girl around the 'Cooler at times. It doesn't seem like many visit any longer. Happy to see you're back in the fold.

 

[Jacob Mathai]

Welcome back! I remember seeing your wedding picturess. Hope you enjoy your new job. May be you will get the water cooler more interesting again.

 

[Ally]

Thanks all!

Wow - wedding pics! About a month ago celebrated our 4th anniversary! Seems like a long time ago now!

Is Hayley or Tess or Tay not around much?

 

[Ron_dK]

Good to see you're back , Ally.
I always liked the humorous notes from yourself and Ground.

 

[BarryMK]

Yes welcome back Ally

Now the NHS have saved your and Col's salaries, I'll be able to have my operation

Is Hayley or Tess or Tay not around much?

Tay looked in a while back but a bunch of us have been loath to post much as there has been a lot of UK/US wrangling that gets stitched into every post that we don't agree with. I'm afraid that particular joke's worn a bit thin for a lot of us...... Still good to hear you're doing well in the private sector. I've got afriend who's a trainee Public Health Consultant and she's looking to move from the NHS due to all the crap too.

 

[Ally]

So Barry - are you still Col's manager!?

I'd like to think that this has calmed down a little bit recently. Don't you think?

 

[BarryMK]

Well.....

There were some nasty accusations of certain moneys not being accounted for and I've had to retire, much against my will to the Cayman Islands, where I managed to buy a small place with the pittance that was my commission. I had to settle for only 10 bedrooms things were so tight..... I think Col's still in his bedsit in Southend over that pub he used to busk outside.

He never calls..........

Don't talk to me bloody Yank


Edit - Just in case there's a culture clash here - that was an example of irony

 

[Ally]

Sounds really tough for you! I'll have to remind him!

We're due to meet for a curry soon!

Don't believe a word he says, everything was legal and above board. I only ever had his best interests at heart. Now I've got to go for a swim in my pool to cool down, this's fair put me off me caviar.

Here we go again There's no hope, it must be catching.

See what you've started Ally?

It has calmed down a bit, hopefully it will continue. Next step will be getting people to come back and visit again...

Hayley has moved on I believe and Tess doesn't visit very often since her new job
Still, there are one or two here that blame others for their departure

I know from PM's from at least a couple of members that people are just sick of all the bickering and acrimonious posts. Perhaps jobs, etc. are a part of the reason as well but it is my personal opinion (right or wrong I don't know) that more people would probably visit more often if the 'cooler were a more pleasant place to be. Several members have expressed this in posts as well.

Well I have told certain posters across the pond to desist, but will they listen
