Oh boy., oh boy 
I wont argue with the unhinged part anyway. Congratulations to your pal. May he live in interesting times…
You’re spot on.
Less than two years ago I was settled in a sales manager role at our place (Japanese multinational) , myself and my boss starting on a 3 year strategic plan for the direct sales organisation.
Now, complete change of direction, moving to an indirect sales model. I’m implementing it and my boss has been made redundant.
The jammy bastard, he’s over the moon, I’m delighted for him.
I now hate the role I have. New boss who is a complete cunt. But the fuckers won’t retrench me. I wish they fucking would.

Retrench means ‘make redundant’ in Australia?
Correct
@Bandage could be a great referee getting cash in hand after matches. A Wexford CBS soccer match at 11 followed by a Peter’s hurling match at half 1. €95 in the pocket for his 2.5 hours of work that will aid his fun running.

Don’t mind that bollix, I’m Limerick city born and reared and it was always King Johns castle - even before the tourist crowd got it and the council houses were in there.
Limerick Castle.
95 quid would hardly pay the physio for his various fun running ailments.
Who ever is teaching history in Mary I must be some pain in the bollix. On old maps it is referred to as Limerick Castle as these maps were for the use of Cromwell and his ilk. Locally why the fuck would it be called Limerick castle. We know where it is .

Sure it’s even called St. John’s castle occasionally, but never Limerick Castle.
The official references to it are - Limerick Castle. That’s what history is - using primary material to put forward your argument. Not what you, Pa, Brendan and John call it down your local when swilling porter and atin tayto.
Locally, up to late 1700s it was referred to as D’Castle

There’s no emotion in history. Just facts.
In the early 70’s it was King Johns Castle , me mother says it was King Johns Castle in 1940’s Limerick but yer man read it in a book so we are all wrong.
I’m sure the Brits knew it as Limerick Castle and we should all fall in with the learned doctor and …he can fuck right off

King John never set foot in the castle. You’re telling lies about Limerick… you hammered your poor mother. You told lies about Teresa Carmody. And about Willie Harrold.
Looks like all the esso oils have a porter and tayto problem
