Re: Minimum wage rise - good or bad?

Thanks, Boeing, for removing the Like. That's an interesting function to allow in PHP or any other scripting language, innit. I feel that I'm relegated to the status deserved, and must feel only grateful.

For any who care - I've received a Notification (not my capitalisation) to the effect that the use of an apostrophe of omission is not an abbreviation. Now I thought I had some of you fooled and can do without such interference, which rather spoils my fun and so the reason I'm here.

After all, he does have a woman cleaner, which for a misogynist is quite a sacrifice. But then, as a misandrist his choice is rather limited.
All right, he had to divorce himself from actually choosing a woman and he doesn't know(or appear to care) how much the agency actually pay her.
But he does make sure she only comes when he's at work- now there's an act of kindness!
There's something good in all of us, although in Graham Hartleys case it's proving difficult to find. Perhaps he's the exception?
Gordon Booth, you have me right as ever. I'm assured by a number of associates elsewhere that there is no good in me - confirmation bias, perhaps.

For someone who doesn`t care about being liked, you don`t half bang on about the fact that someone gave you a like for one of your posts.

I suggest you read the first post on this thread.

We all look forward to your insights on such a contentious issue
