    I am self employed. But when I did my apprentice as a PAYE employee and
    times were tough, my then boss did *suggest* I take either annual leave or
    work every other day.
    By the same token I was appraised every year like any other employee but was
    rarely given a salary increase. CPI aligned rate increase, if lucky.
    However, I valued the company so much, that I bought shares in it anyway and
    reaped some rewards that way.

    "> > Simple, vote with your money and buy overseas then. Remember that any
    order
    Something tells this wouldn't be the first time someone attempted this, and
    my guess it wouldn't be the last. lol

    Does it matter? The argument remains.
    Obviously not!

    *SHOCK HORROR* These people are only in the business of making money! They're only interested in
    profits!

    Perhaps it was because I got it sent via Fedex ... those upstanding
    bastards! Anyhoo, we just flogged off the charges to another account number
    with no reference anyway.

    thats it , use fedex or UPS or any of the couriers and they will screw you
    for the duty as well as a service fee

    the post wont bother unless its up around the $1K mark otherwise its not
    worth the paperwork

    Well, they devoted a whole M*A*S*H episode to it. Those two
    doctor fellers noticed that Radar was sending an awful lot
    of packages home to his Mum. Thye hijacked one and x-rayed
    it. Found it contained a steering wheel. X-rayed a few more.

    Turns out he was shipping a whole Jeep home, piece by piece.

    crooked ">"s?
