After all, if anyone were to shit just in front of you, they could count on you stepping into it, big time.

Golly gee whiz, people; our American brothers and sisters want to move here because we are so very, very friendly, and here you go spoiling the dream by being anything but welcoming - please stop it!
Now, I think some of them might well change their minds when they see our high taxes, high prices for homes, cars, and all things retail, and the smaller selection of available clothing sizes in our malls.
Not to mention the herds of deer and moose crowding out cars on our highways; wolves, coyotes and rabid racoons roaming our urban areas; and ravenous mountain lions climbing onto condo balconies to chew through screen doors and chow down on sleeping residents.
But, as a friendly people, we truly need to welcome all Americans who might wish to come here, and I, for one, will say nothing that could discourage them.

I agree. Even a statement such as, "If you haven't heard within seven days you haven't got the job," at the end of the interview would be OK if they don't like sending out the sorry letters.
On the other hand, if they care that little for those who wish to work for them, do you really want them as a boss?

-- people who forget that they drove in snow and ice last year, don't recall how to brake, navigate turns, and drive at appropriate speeds. Some of these people are upside down in the ditch and stuck in drifts today.
-- people who start every conversation with "cold enough for you?", having forgotten their mittens, toques, and winter jackets, are wearing ankle socks in their runners, ball hats and ass pants.
-- but not immigrants, many of whom are spending their first winter out of the mid-east or south Asia and are dressing appropriately and are taking driving lessons and complain about nothing. I like you and I like what you cook.

You could try going in a bit less often. I felt the same this morning, and so spent some of it fitting mudguards to my shitty old bike. Not shitty enough, because some cunt stole it this afternoon from said shitty university. So I condemn him to hell, and myself too for being such a wanker that this small upset is preventing me getting to sleep.

What's to discuss in Purg? Obamacare kicks in in full in 2014. Vermont is going for full Canadian-style single-payer (with drug coverage, which Canada does *not* have) in 2017.
Why move to Canada when you can move to Vermont? No immigration controls and you get the same climate, the TV signals, the newspapers and a decent degree of French.

TICTH Churchmanship. I am sick of it. All this endless petty meandering, wittering and pontificating about evangelicals, Catholics, liberals, post modern liberals, orthodox, atheists, Anglicans and whatever flavour is floating your boat this year. It absolutely makes me puke. Do you think there is one little part of God’s eternal kingdom where He gives a monkeys about what camp you want to belonging.
Can you not see that all you are doing is creating a boundary to keep you safe that does the exact opposite. You create these walls of Jericho not to worship God better or draw closer to Him but to create a safe little territory and a safe little God. You neuter Aslan, put a little collar around his neck with a bell on it and hope to Allah he never Roars.
I’m not saying that whatever you are is a bad thing (in my instance liberal Anglo-Catholic with charismatic leanings). I’m just saying that to pretend it is the ONLY thing, or pretend that it is enough, is a type of wilful spiritual blindness that speaks little of your or mine baptismal and conformational promises. We bleat on about loving the Lord our God yet we are little more than moths round aflame. Pretending that we are holy because we can see the light (whilst never letting it refine us) and that the candle we orbit with such ferocity is the only candle.
Your crushing desire to be right makes you wrong. It is not wrong to know what you like and worship God in a way that suits you psychologically, emotionally and spiritually but please can we stop pretending that just because what you do is good there is not more which could make your relationship with God better. I’m not asking you to give up what you are (in fact I’m asking you to celebrate more fully what you are in your community) but I am asking for a degree of willingness to grow and change, to know the limitations of where you find yourself, to stop criticising others who do it differently and to recognise that the kingdom is near and may actually be found not in doing what you have done for the last 20 years or in adhering to petty and unfulfilling labels.
In the end churchmanship, is in my opinion, barely helpful and in pretty much every instance I have ever come across wicked. It labels, categorises and stigmatises. A high tower to throw rocks from, screw that.

To add to that you can add all the idiot patriots who joined the fash ignoring/not checking that they were marching with the fash, and all those Vratislavians who allow this to happen without any confrontation. I know someone with black skin who left Wrocław (the "multicultural city") due to racist attacks. Fuck you all.

I guess he gets a certain fraction of pay for each year worked in the BBC - which is since 1989 - so 23 years. A redundancy pay off would be maybe a months salary per year worked, so it is roughly half that. Of course, I'd question the sense in paying him that much in the first place. But the payoff metric seems reasonable. Unless you want to suspend him on full pay and then go through a capability process that would take ages - etc etc.
