The acid, marijuana and cocaine markets are all price inelastic and as robust as a coke sniffers nostrils.

BUY BUY BUY.

Things are even bad at Uni.

They have guest/part-time lecturers to do one of the Scriptwriting modules - the Uni can only afford to pay them for 10 weeks worth of sessions and not the 12 that it should be.

Then, in the local paper, they are advertising for a Academic Liaison Librarian at £28k salary

We've talked, listened and spoke our way into the 'Credit Crunch' tbh. Which, by the way, isn't a technical term and has purely been fabricated by the gutter media the exact same way 'WAG's' were.

Thing is, it comes across to me as if some people are actually enjoying this constant talk of cutting back and mpg and the price of cheese and all this shit.

Yawn.

people are just sad tbh.

and the people who were already 20k+ in debt are blaming the so called 'credit crunch' on the reason they are in so much debt.

they are just retards who can't control their earning/spending.

figures have gone down

figures were 2200 every 24 hours a few months now, now it's only 1200.

bare in mind that's the whole worlds 1.4 td and 1.6 td engines for mazda, citroen, peugeot, ford, volvo.

aye, 50 people got laid off last week who were on temporary contracts.

another 50 got letters last night, one being my cousin

a long long long way to go before they get rid of me yet though (contracters and other temps go first) so here's hoping i should be ok.
