    How low will you go? I would have laughed if anyone told me I’d be doing this just 6 months ago.


    It’s not stopping the cash haemorrhage but it’s bleeding it a little slower.
    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

                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.

                  That can drop into option two, don't want to dilute the responses too much

                    Dear lord, things are bad aren't they. Those on the bench have my sympathy and empathy, hopefully the market will get back to how it was soon and we can get back to taking our rates for granted

                      I'm working with a young guy on his first contract and he looks at me in disbelief when I tell him this is as bad as it gets, hopefully in 12 months time he'll be snorting coke from hookers’ breasts and driving a Lambo.
