Discuss. |
But what if someone is sending PMs to newbies to entice them to come to Istanbul to work illegally for a paltry hourly rate with no social security or sick pay or holidays or minimum salary. In Canada that would be a criminal offence puishable by law. Why should we turn a blind eye to such blatant illegality? |
sorry, but I have to laugh, or else I'd cry....................... |

Why so sad, BabaAlex? I wonder who else has been in the paper and on telly?!?! |
Actually, all this talk about PM's, identities and monkies and stuff makes me wonder if I should choose a fake name for this forum. Then pretend to be a blonde teenage lesbian. |

With the exception of Faustino's enticing avatar, PMs should probably stay private for one reason alone, which is that most of them are probably extremely boring for other people. "Private" just makes it sound like they're much juicier than they really are.
On the other hand, if it's been elevated to avatar status, it might be juicy... Or maybe he's just teasing us and it says something like 'ok, tomorrow at 8.30, see you then.' |
