My mum's work made about 20 employees redundant last month because they couldnt afford to keep them on any more. But lo and behold, last friday a large truck pulled up outside the offices and delivered 7 brand new £70,000 Mercedes Benz's. This is bloody outrageous! Also one of the people who worked in marketing (a friend of my mum's) was made redundant and shortly after was replaced by the bosses son! This isn't flippin right at all.
Last night I was out with some mates and I punched a bus shelter and cut my knuckle. Stupidity to the max!
I got a Nokia 5210, the shock-proof, splash-proof phone that is dubbed "unbreakable". Last night the screen cracked. I didnt drop it or anything. I got it out of my pocket and it has a huge crack in the screen (not the actual screen, the cover screen made of plastic). I am very annoyed because I'll have to buy another. Does anyone know an online phone-cover retailer?

It is illegal to make someone redundant and then give their job to someone else. The point of making someone redundant is that their post no longer exists. Your mum's friend can take the company to court and I can virtually guarantee she'd win provided too much time hasn't passed.
'I led some yr6s around school' isn't exaclty a point to blag. You say 'I have held positions of responsibility, from introducing new students to school to whatever'
Its not worthy on its own.
So there.

What?! I did that in year 9 AND in 6th form, nothing on my record!
Exactly. I had to 'lead' a whole load of them around school, doing tasks.
Record? Yeah right.

Exactly, the *phone* is unbreakable. Not not the case.

Ebay - you gotta bare with because you get best of both worlds, sometimes you can get decent official covers at a bargin and sometime they are cheap plastic cack.
If I come accross anything else I will let you know.
