Fool, how many guys can hear the radio at your work? and does the place run shifts?

Have a look at: http://www.prsformusic.com/SiteColle...riff%20AWE.pdf

You might be able to whip up enough to get a licence. They won't back date you, they will have no evidence that you were playing music beforehand. They may try to make you pay a higher rate for the 1st year tho.

The other way to do it is to get you're fellow workers to reduce their workrate, and get the supervisor to point out to the bosses how much the lack of music has changed productivity.

Or just buy a MP3 player.

The reason that this payment exists is that, legally, a playing of a peice of music, in a public place is considered, legally, the same as a live perormance, and the artist is able to ask to money for a performance. PRS just collects the cash.

It's morphed over the years, but that is what the PRS' business is built on.

As I said, a lot of artists need this money to eat. Most factories get a PRS licence as a matter of course these days, I'm surprised your hasn't tbh.

If I'm reading that right, its about 12p/person/8hr-day = ~20 quid a year/person. Tell your bosses to take it out of yer xmas bonus - but if they're that cheap you probably don't get one.

omg monster week for jimbo in the ff. i really should start giving my team some attention.
01-26-2011 , 07:40 PM
well i asked my boss today how much it was because if it was cheap enough id pay it myself. He told me for companies with under 4 employees its £44. we have more than that, like 25 employees. but in the factory i work in there is never more than 4, the site said premises under 4 so i think i could qualify for that.

but even when i offered he said they wouldn't be getting one incase they would have to get a license for other premises etc

they are basically taking the "i dont care if you want music and are willing to pay, there is a slight chance it will cost me money so FU"

mp3 for me, problem is it would get a bit repetitiv after a whilei think

That's true. Either that or accidentally set off a fire alarm at a university and run off in embarrassment as classes dramatically run out of the lecture hall. :@

I made my first team changes in like a month and a half last week. Ship the nice week, IMO. I'm close to not being in last place.

I made a huge mistake last night at the live cash game I play in. I had a 'discussion' about why straddling was bad for the straddler i.e. you're putting in 2.5 times the BB out of position without looking at your cards.

Oh dear... 'That's what poker players do' my answer 'you're a poker player'? Oh sweet Moses such a downward spiral into a black hole of irrationality.. in the end I just said.. 'maybe you guys are right - I'm still fairly new to this' to kill off the argument and sneak back into my cloak of stupidity.

Is this why there's no shanoobs post yet, because you're spending all your time fapping over random milfs ?

Too many players in the end I think, so I think the last ones to sign up didn't make the draft ....
