Sainsburys want to buy Safeway then kick your sorry ass out of a job and hire some lithuanian prostitutes to do the same job for 1/10 the money and all the extras you like.

If Sainsburys were successful, wouldn't they be in trouble with the monopolies commission? I heard that only Morrisons could buy Safeway out and still be under the maximum allowed market share (just over 25%, like Tesco is now)

Ninjas are just tiny tiny little men. Pirates are all 10ft tall and eat glass. We wear babies as shoes and eat ninjas while frolicking with lusty wenches. Ninjas suck ass.
