      Or as the missus says:

      DCMTWTFSS
      Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

          Oh dear.

          No more sipping cocktails by the pool?

          You did give them biscuits like I said, didn't you?

            I thought that was a spiffing piece of advice...

                Pay peanuts, get monkeys.

                Pay biscuits, get Bobs.

                Can't say more, I'm on ClientCo's freebie Bob Bus.

                  Lucky it was not said to me, I was swaping war stories with another contractor poolside and I had to ask what it meant.

                  I was told it is standard practice in USA for the PM to arrive at your desk on Friday afternoon and say DCM and walk off

                    Not going to happen to me here, as I am with the outsourced vendors.

                    But I did do as you suggested but sweets, biscuits too much space in the luggage
