Corporate America Sucks

As most of you know, I am moving to London in August as part of a job transfer/promotion. The decision to offer me the position was given to me on May 26. I did not recieve the package - which includes compensation and moving particulars - until a month later on June 23rd. I reviewed the doc over the weekend, had questions which were answered over the course of the next week and signed the agreement the following Thursday (July 29th).

The very next day i recieved an email for me to fill out the UK work visa agreement that needed to be filled out(i was out of the office on Friday - Wed of next week.) I figured i would have some time to go over this and make sure i filled it in correctly. I was WRONG. I get an email (from our head HR lady who works 3 days a week and when she does i have no idea what the heck she does on a daily basis) this past Friday telling me that i need to fill out the application immediately because they are running out of time in getting me a visa before i head over (which is now dead set on August 18).

Are you Fing kidding me? You wait a month to put something in front of me and now you are rushing me? F U.....Needless to say i filled it out over the weekend and handed in today. Im such a punk....
