...from your permie days?
-
Coffee's for closers -
Having holidays and *ahem* sick days without giving a stuff and still getting paid
-
Doing P&Ds for my subordinates whom I did not like!
And telling them there is not any money for a pay rise just after I had a fat one!Last edited by Paddy; 4 August 2010, 07:53."A people that elect corrupt politicians, imposters, thieves and traitors are not victims, but accomplices," George OrwellComment

Flight Line in summer
Summer months in Cyprus (Nissi Beach before the Ibiza lot spoiled it)
Officer Baiting
Delibrately jerking the winch back for aircrew who'd been rude.
Searching hot birds cars with a mirror on a stick and asking them to reach over for something in the boot.
Beer Calls.But I discovered nothing else but depraved, excessive superstition. Pliny the youngerComment

There's still plenty of small places, just stay out of the big package resorts.Originally posted by Paddy View Post
One of my favourite holiday experiences is hiring a 4x4 to drive up the Troodos mountains to the ski centre and ambling back down through the forest tracks. Done it a few times now.
You can do a similar drive on the tracks up around the Akamas Peninsula, you get some funny looks from the rabbit hunters as not many people venture that far into the wilderness.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 JohnsonComment

The expense account I had when we had a stockbroker as a customer.
In a job before that the banter and an excellent pie and sandwich shop nearby. That place was run like a family firm. Only one person left in three years and that was to have a baby. Needless to say they destroyed that atmosphere by relocating.Behold the warranty -- the bold print giveth and the fine print taketh away.Comment

Never been a permieRule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.
