    What about playing with your blackberry on the train to and from work and taking 'important' calls very loudly so all the rest of the passengers know how important you are.
    The train from Paddington to Reading is full of these consultancy types. Usually wet behind the ears with brand new suits and huge egos.

        Sticking a bluetooth hands free thingy in their ear the moment they leave the house and on the way home again instantly increasing their working hours, suckers.
        Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

          The permy to my left is sick with a heavy cold, the permy opposite likewise.

          They don't want to waste days at home if they are too unwell to enjoy them.

            n. Working long hours for no extra pay.

            While this is necessary occasionally to cover the peaks and troughs, some permies don't seem to have a life and do it anyway.

              Still, at least I got my bonus, and my share options, and my bosses job.

                1/ Totally ignoring the company work/life balance and flexible working conditions thereby creating a parallel culture and making life for people who need to use the flexiblilty more difficult

                2/ Bringing their newborns in to work so others may fawn. "Look at the products of my loins, look, I demand it, aren't I clever, aren't I a spunk monster? etc." , yes another miracle rejoice! and no it's not cute, it looks like Phil Mitchell like all babies. Nothing against people having children, just leave them at home please.
                The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

                But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

                  Thinking the job title "Team Leader" means they are important.
