you can't give a house away in Michigan.
Yeah things seem pretty rough up North there...things have been okay here...we got P&G to keep things real.
Any one worried about the credit crunch can come and live with me on the high seas. No paying bills, and you plunder and pillage. Plenty of women and wine. You have to be fit though, no obese pirates allowed. 
Talking about this sh1t, my companys announced that there are going to be another 50 redundancies. Meaning im at a fairly high risk. Its sh1t.
Ill tell you what pisses me off around here, the f**king bank workers who are getting bonuses or complaining that they're not going to recieve a bonus! WTF its they're fault were in this mess.
Whoever complains about not getting a bonus in this current state is a f**king idiot.
Anyway all rage aside, who fancies tickling my scrot sack?

Only if you promise to call in the morning.
No but seriously, sorry for being ignant, but are the UKs problems the same as over here? Housing market in a downward spiral, lots of supply and no demand for homes. Credit all F-ed up, even legit people can't hardly get loans...because 5 years ago anybody and their mom could get any loan for any amount. Job losses mounting, stocks in the pooper...
ok.........
It's exactly the same situation. Our banks are closely tied to yours and almost all of them lost massive sums in the sub-prime US mortgage market fall-out last year. Billions are being written off and the government is effectively buying the worst hit banks with tax payer’s money.
On top of that, they screwed up over here too. Banks have spent years offering huge unsecured loans and mortgages up to 125% of the property value and now of course people can’t pay it back.
I've lost one job already with this recession and my current job is getting increasingly unstable with each barren month that passes
That's just like you, Tom. I do it once, and now you seem to think I've set a precedent. I suppose you're going to want it ALL THE TIME, aren't you?

ILM your name should be ILC. Ill let you decide what the C stands for.
Me and Krak are going to do an Arabian sex marathon for you.
How long have you each been there? A lot of the time it comes down to how redundancy they’ll have to pay out
We haven’t been told of any redundancies but we have just been given a bit of a dressing down about our behaviour at work. It’s returning to the days when your employer could treat you any way they wanted because people are just happy to have jobs
Well the other 2 are like 35 and 40 years old. More experienced than me, but dont really do much of a better/different job than me. Plus they are on higher wages.
Awesome! An Arabian sex marathon ... and just for me
I feel so *special* Yeah, I know what the "C" stands for. And you're 100% correct. I do love it
If they have higher wages, they'll probably be the first to go ...
How much?
