    I see you've still got your foul mouth...You should stay quiet if you have nothing useful to say - did your mum never teach you that?

        I can imagine you speaking like that.

            It's actually a ribbon, in the colours of a Palestinian flag.

            Why? To show my support against the occupiers of their land...

                Guys were not all singing from the same hymn sheet at the moment.
                Perhaps we can address the going forward?

                  "Going forward".
                  Yesterday when I was told (as I already knew) that my contract won't be renewed at the end of the month the manager here said with startling honesty '<clientco> is in deep trouble right now. I'm not allowed to renew contractors and I probably won't have a job in a month's time'.

                  It was surreal; there was I, fairly cheerful to know that the most boring contract of my life is coming to an end, and there's the manager with tears in his eyes and probably three colours of tulip in his pants at the thought of unemployment, a mortgage and two kids who've just started university.

                  I don't quite know how to console the guy.

                      It always amazes me the amount of times I sit in meetings and have to listen to normally intelligent adult human beings degrade themselves by spouting this sort of tulip. Normally as will when they are in front of their line managers etc.

                      It is one of my pet theories that projects go wrong because no-one can really understand each other over all of the pseudo-bollox that they shovel.
