Nice enough guy, but total jobsworth when it comes to that sort of thing. Kinda chap who wouldn't risk more than one beer the night before coming to work in case it "broke policy" - that sort of thing.
    ******* conscientious, industrious nice guy is that what you are saying. Setting the bar too high for the rest of us.

      That is exactly what I am saying!

      Just bagged another tele interview for this afternoon. 4 concrete opportunities on the table, surely something has to come off?

        Handler? Haha do you work for Special Branch? Or the Circus? (ask yer dad, he may have watched Smiley's People.)

        He had a negative bluety on a quackhandle and was quadraspazzed on a lifeglug.

        I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.

          Haha, very good. I just refuse to use the word "manager" - even though that's probably the most accurate description.
