Just over $500 in the company betting pool on how long it would take the new chap appointed to manager of the Architecture division to be sacked, it was a close run thing though. Problem was it cost me $650 to get him sacked so I was left out of pocket. :rofl: No that story is not true before you ask, I'd never pay to get someone fired (They are supposed to be my friends FFS, I'd expect it done for free!).
