Default Patronising comment of the day…..

Former client, ie, the guy who is now my boss now that I have converted to the dark side called me yesterday about the M62 problems, saying that normally only people at his level and above can work from home, but as a special dispensation I could if I chose to. Not very helpful as I got the message after I got to work……

I resisted the ‘I am earning a lot more than you have over the last year’ level reply.

Bring on the upturn so I can get back out of permiedoom.

You'd probably end up that way as a permie; comatose as a result of interminable boredom.

Does ECT actually work?

I've been thinking about trying it on a friend to try and stop him dancing like Snoopy!

Can't come quick enough. Might mean an end to your pointless drivel.

Can't even bring myself to use your catchphrase...
