N.E.D. Social Area

Who's top after 3 games?

Anyone about today?

 

  

 

 

Let's use our words.

How is everyone?

I seem to be having a bad spell of doing things wrong at work, which is ironic considering I don't have the same distraction of this league any more. I think it actually made me better at my job.

I'm in my final week of school, avoiding all revision like the plague

And I've got like 6 interviews lined up, so that's stressing me out.

I need a fag

Don't smoke, drink

Heard from any of these interviews yet? Or have they all frowned upon you getting interview boners?

I've had one and they rejected me, but it was understandable. They're in the top 100 companies to work for, and my little Ford Ka didn't fit in with the land rovers and Mercedes really

Because it was pink?

Hey its black

Anyways Lloyd's tomorrow, some sort of selection event? What is that

The pick the prettiest young boy and take him out the back for...a business transaction.

Don't worry, Olly has a Ka so he's going to be experienced with business transactions like that.

Where are these new interviews then?

Why not come to London to make your fortune? The streets are paved with gold and we all smoke cigars over our piles of money.

Presumably they'll have about 20 of you and put you through some tasks to see how you work. The make a tower out of newspaper is a favorite iirc.

Make a what out of what?

The Frak does that prove? Interviews are weird.

Its a group assessment. Its so they can cut down applicants without staging loads of interviews.

You work in a group so its supposedly an indicator of how you work.

If it is an interview for an architects or engineer who has hoarded newspapers over the years, it could be vital

Its basically who can build the tallest structure out of newspaper and sellotape that holds a pen for 5 seconds.

Sounds engineering principles Exactly what you want from your tower

1. Nowhere to stay
2. Know nobody
3. Would have no money or work

Knowing nobody sounds like a positive to me.

But then again, I'm very anti social.

4. No puppet theatres
5. Not enough fingers per capita

I'm not a big social fan, been to a nightclub once, hated it. Much prefer a pub, or home

6. Masturbation on trains is frowned upon.

Yeah, after first year at uni I never really went out much

What a load of Bull poo, I was in London a few weeks back and I rememered why I didn't visit that awful city for over 8 years. Horrible selfish people, water tastes disgusting, too damn busy, most people are living under the poverty line, seen 4 beggars during my time there. I hate London and most of the people, hopefully I'll never have to go for another 50000000 years. Majority of the people I encountered didn't speak English.

I much prefer Edinburgh to London tbh. Too crowded. I hate the tube with a passion.

GSC wrote:I much prefer Edinburgh to London tbh. Too crowded. I hate the tube with a passion.

Don't get me started on the tube, do these people have no consideration for their own life or others? Standing so damn close to the edge and pushing others to make it on the tube. An why is everyone miserable.

I'm not a fan of the tube either, so complicated and sweaty and yuck

I think the sarcasm in my post was undetected by Vivalicious.

The new tube trains are great though, they have air conditioning. I don't think it's a particularly complex system either if you're a) not colourblind or b) not a dummy.

Where did you go to Viva? I might have been in your very presence...

1. Stay with Azzy
2. You know Azzy
3. Azzy will give you money if you perform a few 'jobs'

Do you have the ones that just one giant carriage yet? Air Con on trains is nice.

Yes, we've got them on the circle line so I try and get them where I can. Way better, so much more space and the air con helps keep the smelliness down.

You still get a few smellies on though.

I dislike them unless i can get decent seat usually get stuck in the long bits that are sectioned so my ass get stuck   

I am going for a wander around London tomorrow

The Tube is exceptional engineering. You Northeners need to man up.

I'm proper gutted this thing isn't an interview tomorrow, its a customer service assistant at Lloyd's and I'm great with customer service, its what I do now!!!!

Yet I'll probably be overlooked in this selection event eugh

East and Central mainly, I swear I seen this blonde slicked hair learnado Di caprio looking like guy an I thought it was you it was Withersfield I think the place.

Yeah on the crammed subway loads of weapons on there.

Have you tried googling it?

Id be surprised if it's a group interview being a bank tbh. You work 1 vs 1 really so could just a role play exercise where they ask what you would do in certain situations.

I thought you sold chips on behalf of a small Chinese man?

Morning all. It seems like there's a lot more activity on the other website, but LSTD's league is too much. There's like 10-15 pages worth of comments from one evening. I can't be bothered catching up with that much. There needs to be the right amount of activity.

I'm game.

The other websites layout really isn't condusive to these leagues.

Tbh I don't really know why they copied the 606 layout, it was terrible.

Guess they were playing on the thought that people don't like change.

But that layout really is crap. This is much easier for leagues but the interest isn't high at the moment. I'd play on a world cup one though.

I cannot for the life of me get to grips with that website
