Title: Magic Roundabout Post by: Leggett on Saturday, June 14, 2008, 23:23:48 or the guy who invented ISAs, you'd mourn him like a bitch!

I have the pleasure of working for Nationwide but not quite sure how much longer. Title: Magic Roundabout Post by: lebowski on Sunday, June 15, 2008, 21:08:44 Me too.
It won't be long before Nationwide becomes more of an ethos ala Al Qaeda, than a physical entity. Still at least the board members get treated well. Got to have a bit of bubbly for the board members.

Title: Magic Roundabout Post by: chalkies_shorts on Monday, June 16, 2008, 12:35:45 Actually if you did get a GB tattooo you'd have to cover it up as no visible tattoos allowed any more. Don't forget to get into D2 you need to be level 2.2 or you get bounced out - its a pleb filter.

Title: Magic Roundabout Post by: McLovin on Tuesday, June 17, 2008, 16:16:51 Oh yes... ComputaCenter here i come. Unless they see through my charade and realise i offer little, if any, use. At least they're forced to keep me on for at least a year, or it's a nice little redundancy payout to go in my "Buy a bar in the Bahamas" fund.
