Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I ran past an arsehole of a higher order on my parkrun on Saturday morning. He watched as his dog shat by a path through a woods, not ten metres from a dogshit bin. He didn't pick it up. I shouted back "pick it up", he shouted in reply "got no bags, mate". With a cheery grin, which of course makes it fine. At which point a massive dollop of shit fell from the sky onto his head. Or at least it did in my mind.

People taking almost a month to feedback on interviews, makes me think they've changed their mind completely about recruiting.

Firms who demand CVs within 48 hours and then take forever to look at them and get back to you.

Grockles who stand around yattering and taking up the whole width of shared-use paths when I'm cycling fast.

V'rap, what's the Scottish word for grockle? No-one up here understands what I'm talking about when I say it.
