PVR Songs

We we siting around at work last night trying to think of songs that would make it onto a disc called "Now thats what I call a PVR"

Songs such as:

Should I stay or should I go - The Clash
Trapped - All Saints
Stay - Shakespears Sister
Take this job and shove it - Jonny Paycheck

Was wondering what songs fellow Pruners would you put onto the CD?

Perhaps she needs to re-record to "Eight to seven" especially if one's boss is an utter arse who displays all the leadership of a dog turd whilst your job is under constant scrutiny in this wonderful economic "downturn".

Seriously though, if you are thinking of leaving, do think again. Its not until you leave that you realise just how good you have had it in the services. I've left twice and yet another opportunity of going back in beckons.

That is a fair point - the one thing i miss of the job aspect of the RAF is the Job security, never felt secure in the 3 years since i have left.
