Had my first interview for a History teacher job today. Would be a real good start as it's an Outstanding state school with a C of E basis. Kids were intelligent, behaved and well mannered. It's also a 25 minute walk from my house so I'd be super stoked if I got it. Good luck!

Was told by someone from management today that I was lowering the tone in the office. Whatever the fuck that means.
Ugh.

You don't have to announce it to the whole office every time you go take a shit, you know.

It was nothing but the lady in question is a bit sensitive about these things. A lass and I have a rapport and she laughs at my dumb shit but then somebody who isn't part of the conversation chips in with that you know? "lowering the tone"....like it's a fucking church or summat.
The last time it happened it was between me and the same lass when she said that some people should be sterilised (not seriously obv but just one of those things people say) and I replied "cheers Mengele!" and somebody else actually took me aside and said she found what I said (even though it wasn't me mentioning the sterilisation) to be in really poor taste or some crap. made me feel like a right twat.
Honest to goodness, I'm losing patience with this whole sector.

She didn't take me aside either, just said we were lowering the tone.
Christ, if you want me to lower the tone wait till I turn up at the Xmas party dressed as Jimmy Savile you cunt.

I think he might actually raise it a little.
Yes, I'm scared too.

The first half of the day, I spent with a videographer and our supply chain division director doing a video at a warehouse and one of our subsidiaries.
The videographer, who I've used a few times before, retired at 50 from Verizon. Before Verizon, he was the IT Director at Sun Microsystems and Blockbuster. He said he couldn't spend the money they were throwing at him fast enough so he retired.
He also told me he's being interviewed tomorrow for a documentary on Blockbuster. He said he was there when Netflix came on the scene and Blockbuster weren't scared because they thought the in-store experience was a true advantage.
I laughed and told him that executive management must have never gone to a Blockbuster on a Friday night with their family when you could only find your third or fourth choices of movie and then stand in a line for 20-30 minutes.
