How does "rumour on the City grapevine" get translated to "It's clear"?

You're a flipin half-wit!

I'm talking about your original post!

Not the result of the search you made after the event.

You tried to impress with "insider" knowledge and came a cropper.

You're a buffoon!

And you are thick. The result of my search confirmed what everyone was talking about yesterday in the pub.
Stick to basic IT or whatever it is you do.

You pair ought to work in tandem then. That way the possibility of you jointly passing a comment worth listening to would become much more of a tangible option.

I reckon tough times are coming ladies and gentlemen.

I just got told my contract yesterday isn't getting renewed at a large bank (Suspect they're scared of the pay rise I'm going to ask for now I got my CCIE), plus quite a few other contractors in my area are also not being renewed (About 5 I know of just now in a team of around 30, and some still not sure what's happening) and the ones who are staying aren't getting raises.

Might be a good idea to lock in and lay low for a while.

hmm that's interesting Snaw. The bank I'm working for just laid off hundreds, mainly in the US and London. On the chat, one guy was "unplugged", "I'm redundant" he chatted, then "my applications are behaving strangely", then silence. Tough times ahead ?
