philpy Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Ah, so presumably your bonus is based on collective team results of performance, attendance etc. rather than individual? Just had a wee think about what you said there gaz, you might be right i think. Sorry, its been a long day 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 The swines made me stay another week, so I had my leaving night last Friday. That explains it. Must be a cnut to have a leaving night and then go back into work on Monday in the same job for another week, though! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, it wasnae the best. The thing is, they made me stay purely out of badness, there was no need whatsoever, and now I'm a week behind in training with my new job. :angry: I'd have went out tonight as well, but it's an all-dayer tomorrow 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peterhead Dave Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 You shouldn't call your mrs that, philpy. Stranraer is my PTTGOYN. The town, the football team, the ferry, just the whole thing! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintSam Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 I've been ill since Friday night and I'm thoroughly fed up of it. I have eaten half a bowl of soup, a plum and an orange since I first became ill and I'm starving, yet the thought of food makes my want to chuck up the non-existent contents of my empty stomach. My family is downstairs eating lovely steak, potatos and veg, and I'm stuck up here feeling sorry for myself in the PJ's I haven't gotten out of since Friday, with my duvet wrapped around me. Worst of all? I even missed the football yesterday. :( 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayrgirl Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 I'm not a very good sick person. Show me who is! I've had a sore throat for over two weeks now. I thought I was getting better and woke up this morning all croaky and losing my voice. Needless to say Monster is well chuffed! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I was getting better and woke up this morning all croaky and losing my voice. Needless to say Monster is well chuffed! At first we thought it was food poisoning since I'd eaten out on Friday night just a few hours before I fell ill, but I thought if it was that it would have passed by now. Seemingly there's a bug going around of this sort, so I've probably been unlucky enough to catch it. I must say, I haven't had a bug like this since I was child, and vomiting is the most horrible experience in the world. Eurgh, I hate it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norovirus (or winter vomiting syndrome) is doing the rounds at the minute - Usually a 12-60 hour thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintSam Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 Any tips on food I can eat that won't just go through me, or alternatively come straight back up? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayrgirl Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 Not much to do but sit and wait it out really. Drink loads so that you don't get dehydrated. We usually just give people water initially then introduce something light when they can tolerate water without bringing it straight back up. Generally find that toast and scrambled egg is a good thing to start off with. Unfortunately it's best to let it run it's course. p.s. if it's norovirus it will spread easily as it can survive in the environment for a few days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
