Cambridge Chat (previously New Cambridge Students Entry 2004)

ooo jazz.....nice! wish i had time to do these things....will have to see how work goes in library

and lex, it's to do with a guy who came into one of our lectures at the start and told us about this "internship" to do with working in america, and how he made about $4000 which was "about average for those who do it" and that it was a "running a small business" type of thing. So loads of people were interested and left their names (I thought it seemed a bit of a jip so I didnt).

So we just recieved an email from our lecturer apologising for not researching this guy and the company he was representing thoroughly. the wording they were using was actually describing door to door sales. And by calling it a "mini business" it meant that they werent technically employing you and so they didnt have to look out for you (welfare etc).

so yeah i want to go to one of the presentations they are holding for those who put their name down, and ask questions to get it the truth out of them....things like "What exactly is the 'mini business' doing....what is my role in the business, describe a typical day in such a business"......and if they don't talk about door to door sales, then i'd say "could have that statement in an official document guarenteeing that that is what we do in a day, and NOT go from door to door selling YOUR products"

Oh, lol! They must do that every year; I fell for it last year and went to one of their presentation things. Although they were honest in the presentation that it was bookselling... Maybe we should mention it in a thread for the Freshers at the start of October! Don't do it guys!

it was set to toast the bread for like 5 seconds when i got it sorry dude

anyway that means you broke the rule not to leave your toaster unattended!!

FINE THE CAMFO BYATCH!

Oi, it's a nice suggestion telling one to fine other one.

Especially when there's a kitchen and a toilet between the two. (* whatever that means. I'm not talking sense at the moment *)

Well, you are talking to yourself.

it would have been much easier to say Camford |= nonsense

it's a language we invented.....so compscis can talk secretly about how we're gonna destroy james bond!
