Try talking to people rather than a fake cheap gesture.

Im proud of being a fake cheap gesture kinda guy

Don't underestimate the power of sticky buns.

company EMP
30 minutes per day which is fair enough Im not paid to surf but there was no work to do and I mean nothing, nishter, nada, like watching paint dry for 8 hours a day, secure site so we're not allowed dongles, usb's or anything remotely peripheral, designed them a reporting database as a freeby for something to do and it wasnt even my job, went throught their service improvement plan, all that was left was the solice of the internet

Sounds to me like there was plenty of time for pot-noodling....

At least you would have been paid for it. Now you're going to be stuck at home hoping the missus doesn't barge in on you.

I actually tried being nice once - I bought a load of turkish delight back with me - nobody liked it and it got binned.

As for buying them lot cakes - I couldn't wait to get away. i didn't want to come back!

[SantaClaus]

Exactly. What do you think sticks in the mind of permies more? The fantastic software system no one uses the week after you left or the luxury M&S cake mountain you left on that Friday?

"Hi just catching up, I was Bob the contractor, you remember, the one that bought 500 black forest gateau's on my leaving do".

Oh yes, I remember you Bob. Three of our staff dropped dead from obesity a month after you left.

Oh yes, I remember you Bob. Three of our staff dropped dead from obesity a month after you left.

Excellent, so you'll be needing someone to replace them

I used to work at a Bank where there were a particularly hard drinking bunch of Unix sa's. It was a joint leaving do and we had cards behind the bar for drinks. When I looked around at about 8:30pm there was a table full of large flaming sambucas. Final bill came to £900 of which I copped £400, never again....

Sambuca

I poured half a bottle of that down the sink the other day... even the smell made me heave! I have a really nice little Mullberry handbag that has Sambuca stains on it, that hurts me more than the sambuca puke hurts.
