    Since this a venting thread, I'd like to complain about Robzy's signature. I'm not a fan of excessively out-of-proportion women (pronounced "breast implants"). So I'm offended and pissed yadda yadda

    There's only way to find out if they're implants. I regrettably volunteer myself for the testing procedure.

    When undertaking any sort of medical exam, you should always seek a second opinion. I offer my services free of charge

    I don't care if they're real or not. I feel like having 4 hands.

    After going through all the hoohah in putting together a new conference paper (more like copying & pasting from my own previous papers... ) and being told I SHOULD tag along to the Gold Coast conference for a few days, I'm now told they actually don't have enough funding to pay for my trip. Conference registration + return air fare + hotel fees add up to over $2000 and there's no way I'll be paying for even half of that out of my own pocket at my current financial state. And for $2000 I could really have an oversea trip instead, or have the money saved for next year's BotCon.

    I got all excited thinking I could go visit bossbot and others in Brisbane then fly to see Melb + Syd fans with cheap Jetstar air fares. Will see what my boss says on Monday now. With me and another 2 girls not going, his entourage is now down from 4 to 1. It'll be a record if he ends up presenting 4 papers by himself at a single conference. I guess there's still a very "slim" chance he'll pay for my trip but I wouldn't count on it.

    If its official business your entitled to be compensated or better yet your expenses SHOULD be budgetted for Kyle.... no questions about that...if they're expecting YOU to pay for official business stuff like this conference trip for presentation then they got to be kidding.... UNION rules!

    Nah it's ok. I'll simply not go. I cannot get on a plane if they don't already have a paid air ticket for me. And I won't be allocated a presentation time slot if they don't pay for my conference registration.

    $50 seems it have vanished from the bank account, I'll give it a day to update and see whats what, other wise I'll have to pay the bank a visit.

    Were they actually expecting you to pay for it or did the funding get cut back?

    Sucks either way tho
    Which brings us to where we are today...
