Get the .9.A spicy vibe could be a lot of fun today.9.mug. “Thanks for today” or “thank you for today,” followed by offering a handshake means you have been dismissed. Commonly used in the UK construction industry where many are self-employed, umbrella PAYE, or agency & little notice is needed.
Thanks for today is brutal, passive aggressive & means you’ve probably been binned on your first day. Most UK agencies force a contractor to keep the subby for a full shift, so the end of the day is usually the earliest they can bin you. You will be lucky if you are given any feedback directly. If they give feedback to the agency, the agency won’t tell you but you won’t get any more work from them (blacklisting).
Shit managers & supervisors insult & get you doing demeaning tasks if they decide they don’t like you, hoping you walk & they won’t have to pay a full day (never walk!).
If they go thru a lot of agency workers, one of the subbies (with kids to feed) who works like he is on price (but for day rate to avoid the sack) will usually take you to one side & warn you early. If they’re wankers they won’t tell you until after.
If you’re working on a large job, lads will be sucking up, criticising, lying to the manager & bringing up their kids they don’t see within 30 minutes of starting. This is to milk the contract & so if labour has to be reduced, it will be you and not them. Be wary of anyone offering to share tools.
Pissed off, sacked agency workers sometimes discreetly damage work somebody else did in revenge, before they go

“Thanks for today, Mark.” *puts out hand for a handshake while staring through you* “do you have any feedback?” “No, great job!” “I was told this job was 6 months work?” “not by me!”

Get the not todaymug. A term mostly used by some people on BandLab named projekt5 and Grøøt, which has a lot of meanings, most notably meaning that a person woke up or that something is amazing. Derived from Grøøt's own song "Daily Routine"
