I worked at this place for 7 years, hoping to get permanent ( "yuh permanent yet?" was a normal greeting was)
When The 'We are glad to offer you a permanent post" letter came instead of my "Your contract has been extended for the next 5 months" letter, I freaked. Did not tell my boss, who has been fighting tooth and nail for my 'permanency'. Forgot the letter and found it in my desk drawer, about 3 weeks later.
I'd had 2 weeks to 'respond', since the two weeks were gone, I told my boss about it. He stood over me, until I signed it, then stamped it 2 weeks earlier, signed it himself, wrote URGENT in his big authoritative print, then called and had it ferried to HR.
14 months later I quit.
