I had a spasm in my leg when I woke up this morning, thus kicking the cat on my bed, and he jumped on to me and properly scared me.

I'm completely hung up on this DJ/club owner I barely know and struggling with how to talk to him and if I should even keep the relationship just professional.

I'm not working for him thank god. I just know him. He hits on me all the time but I heard his girlfriend is the club's co-owner, and he apparently lied to my friend about it. and I've heard from several people that he is a manipulative slimeball but he has always been incredibly nice to me.

its really confusing.

:(

advice is welcomed. pm please

Having worked solidly for the past three weeks and now it's caught up with me. I'm rundown and starting with a cold/the flu, just in time for Leeds Festival on Wednesday...my mum's got me the day off work tomorrow so I can get better quicker!

My best friend asking me for advice as to what he should do with his girlfriend because she's going to dump him if he doesn't sleep with her but he wants to wait until he's married. It made me sad because the advice I'm giving is kind of biased because I'm slightly in love with him.

Realising that I'm making far too much of an effort with someone who probably isn't interested anyway. And also wondering if I should sever all contact with a 'friend' of mine who hurt me quite badly this time last year and who I still can't bring myself to forgive.

So save the last dance

For me my love 'cause I

I see you as an angel freshly fallen from the sky...

Not being able to talk to one of my best friends and ruining our record of talking every day for 5 years. Stupid V festival.

Also, realising that 2 of my friends are at V and I could've gone.

Also, match of the day not being available on iplayer :(

There/ They're/ Their. Different words.

You what :shock: my actual god and he's with her why? I think I know what advice you might have given him and I'm sure it was the right one. Is she in a relationship or self-involved?

They've been together for 3 years but bless him, he's the kind of person that puts himself down every chance he gets. He can't believe that he managed to get a stunning girlfriend and keep her for so long. He does whatever she wants to keep her happy and she's really lovely too most of the time but she's completely against his faith. She doesn't understand the concept of faith but when he tries to explain she doesn't care, she doesn't make an effort. I love him to bits as a friend and then some, and it's killing me seeing him question his faith so much for a girl.

Getting told off for something really really trivial at work (eating breakfast at my desk). This is obviously the beginning of the end. I am for the elbow soon enough. I know the signs better than my employers do.

Give us the motivation, we can cause a sensation!

Work.

I was being treated unfairly by the people i work with so i stormed out and now i'm on a nother department temporarily. I have issues with self confidence and self esteem anyway and this hasn't helped it. Now i've been told that i have to go back their on the same hours i was on before, which means working with these people again, and i don't want to. I feel like i've been treated like crap and the management don't really care. It's come to the point that last friday i nearly walked out of my job, I am sick and tired of being treated like crap by people. I'm trying to look for another job out of customer service but there isnt a lot else in newbury that i can do, and as i can't drive yet i'm fairly stuck.

Arse.

Aww Mike, I'm sorry to hear about that. Work is rubbish sometimes, I've had countless jobs over the years and I know how terribly workers can get treated. I hope this gets sorted soon, or you find another job working for and with people who deserve your presence!!

It just irritates me though. Even if my manager does speak to them and sorts it out, they will just lick his arse and it will just end up worse than before, but they won't believe me. I think it's age discrimination to a certin extent though because im the only one who will work 5 evenings a week and also, if it was someone who had been there a lot longer than me, and was the same age as most of the management then none of this would have happened.

Aah well. Roll on the days when i can drive.

I worked hard to produce my newspaper column for Monday morning. I e-mailed it to the editor, and then had an e-mail today asking why I hadn't sent it. It turns out the editor wasn't in and it was cover staff. They couldn't get to my e-mail so I called my sister to forward it on.

I then got an e-mail saying they had gone to print without it, and that if I wasn't bothered, they were happy not to bother this week.

It just made it sound like I was the only one who wanted it published. It made me feel like saying 'alright, you don't pay me, I go out of my way to help you, maybe we should end things here'.

    • Scott opened Thursday by immediately clocking the pace of the inbox, saying it was “one of those mornings where you can tell people have woken up ready to talk.” Ellie Brennan and Tina Daheley were both in studio, with Scott checking in on them and joking that “we haven’t even warmed up yet and you’re all already in full voice.” The early links were light, with Scott narrating what was coming up and reminding listeners they were heading into “a proper Thursday show.” There were quick resets, music breathing space and familiar back-announcing, with Scott repeatedly acknowledging how fast messages were landing and half-laughing that “this is already a lot before seven.” Ellie noted that voice notes were stacking up unusually early, while Tina commented that people seemed keen to respond to each other as much as the programme. Motherhood chat, but not a phone-in The main theme emerged around motherhood and social media expectations, introduced by Scott reading a listener message about feeling like she was “constantly failing compared to what I see online.” Scott paused on it, saying “this comes up a lot, doesn’t it,” but was careful to keep the show moving rather than letting it settle into a single-issue phone-in. Ellie talked about how curated feeds distort reality, while Tina pointed out that “nobody posts the day where everything went wrong.” Scott reframed the discussion several times, reminding listeners that “you’re hearing highlights, not real life,” before deliberately breaking the run with music and a reset, saying they’d “come back to this — but not all at once.” Voice notes, relief and shared laughs As voice notes came in, the tone varied. Some were reflective, others lighter, with Scott reacting in the moment rather than letting each one sit heavily. When one mum admitted she didn’t enjoy every moment, Scott replied simply, “you’re allowed to feel like that,” before immediately moving on to the next message to stop it lingering. Ellie noted quietly that a lot of messages ended with apologies — “sorry if this sounds awful” — which Scott picked up on, saying, “you all keep apologising — you don’t need to.” He then undercut the intensity by joking that “this has turned into group therapy before 7am,” before laughing and playing a record. Listeners responded to each other as much as the show, which Scott acknowledged on air, saying it felt like “people talking to people rather than just talking to us,” while still steering the programme forward. Pause for Thought and breathing space Pause for Thought slotted neatly into the running order, continuing the theme without deepening it. The speaker focused on compassion, comparison and letting go of unrealistic expectations. Scott thanked them afterwards, saying it “fits with what people have been saying this morning,” and deliberately left a short pause before moving on. Ellie observed that the slot felt like “a natural breather” in the show, which Scott agreed with, before resetting the mood with music and lighter links. The handover Scott handed over to Vernon Kay by briefly outlining what the morning had been about. Vernon picked up on the listener response, saying it sounded like “one of those shows where people really got involved.” Scott agreed, replying that “they really did today,” and mentioned the volume of messages still waiting.
