What's made you grumpy today?

Really struggling to find a work placement.

The Uni has ads for a few general and web based programming ones.

They'd be useful, sure, but I'd rather be doing one for a games firm as I'd learn more relevant skills, considering I want to go into games dev at the end of all this - so also more useful on a CV/as a reference when applying for jobs after I graduate, unless I get invited back.

Also Cylinder head made need to be replaced...:(

Will go to fiat glyn Hopkin Enfield some time this week for quotes:(

also handbrake doesn't work anymore:bang: so that will also need repairs... again
 
Had a interview at work to start working towards a team leader role...pass mark was 65...I got 62. Annoyed in a way as it was a waste of time, but glad in a way as I wasn't too keen on becoming one anyway, I want to leave as soon as I can!
 
I am very skint and it's really getting me down :(

Tenants not paying rent on time (n)
Previous tenants to the none payers not paying rent and doing one mid month :(
Rising cost of diesel and a 30+ mile increase to my daily commute(n)
Being stitched up due to crappy garage and scudo receiving fines earlier in the year that meant I went passed OD limit and now the bank charges are snow balling very very quickly :bang:(n):cry:
Expenses from two weeks business trip to San Jose are taking a lifetime to come in.
I've sold 3 of my cars this year and all I have to show for it is a set of skanky old car mats and some random parts in my garage but financially no better off :confused:

It's really annoying how I've gone from several hundred each month in my back pocket and credit cards over draft etc all manageable and nearly paid off, to being in a state of my monthly income barely touching my bills / accumulating debt, and each time I go over by a tiny amount in some cases for less than an hour it's costing me a fortune :(

I've tried to speak with my bank and arrange a meeting so I can discuss my current and future lending prospects and organise a way in which I can get on top of everything. I've got more than enough equity to get on top and out of this rut...... So far the worlds local bank is appearing very very foreign when ever I ring them (n) as for speaking with the right person for small business accounts or mortgages I might as well speak to an automated cinema booking system!
 
If your talking about HSBC good luck tapping that keg. Wouldn't give me a £200 overdraft despite having written proof from my insurance provider I had £20,000 due to be paid in 2week's later :rolleyes:

They seem very hit or miss. Sometimes they've been very helpful to me and others absolutely rubbish. It seems that when I don't owe them anything and could potentially take my business else where there is always someone available to chat to.... When I owe them and they are chasing me by phone to take a payment of x many hundreds from a non "local bank" debit or credit card they are utter ****e, and I can't get hold of someone who can actually help.
 
Ebay seller not sending photos of a part ive asked for, told him outright i wont buy without seeing photos due to him been 100miles away.

claims to have emailed both my accounts and i haven't received anything, and one says it hasn't blocked any incoming mail.

he's reduced the asking price for me which is nice, BUT I WANT PHOTOS :bang::bang:
