      I don't find it offensive but I still wouldn't want it appearing on the screen in large letters when I am in an open-plan office.

      We all know the rules, that's the trouble with young people these days, no respect for authority, mutter mutter......

            What's that line from Alfie where he asks his lover to make him a cup of tea?

            That's what it reminds me of
            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.”

              Are you disrespecting us imbeciles?

              I am highly offended by such prejudice against people of imbecilic nature. Why should we be enslaved into behaviour patterns that are alien to us imbeciles?

              The UK has signed up to European Charter on Human rights that protect us from being discriminated against for being an imbecile. Those rights also apply on CUK.
              How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

                  WGS - my visits to CUK were severely curtailed earlier in the year when I was stuck at a desk where the people working on that floor came walking directly towards my back (a couple of steps above me until the last few feet, so they had an excellent view over my head of what was on my screen) on their way to the part of the office where the studios, toilets, kitchen and some meeting rooms were. It was like working in Leicester Square (as indeed I was), but with company directors instead of Japanese tourists bearing "Hello Kitty" knapsacks (Security kept them out).

                  Having one's screen flash up some inappropriate word in large red letters - or, indeed, letters of any hue - when the director responsible for the project you're working on is approaching behind you is not good. IIRC, I actually asked Sockpuppet (the real one) to change his sig at that time, simply because it was far too obtrusive even at a distance.

                  It's the old people you have to watch. Word is, DP only lost it because the district nurse forgot to give him his tablets before he went to the day centre for his lunch

                      If I cant say certain words how am I going to express my mirth at the fact that I was in a mexican in munich that had translated "chicken breasts" as "chicken tits" on the menu?

                      [edit]bloody hell, you can say tits but not n****[/edit]
                      I am not qualified to give the above advice!

                      Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time
