How do you know if a female member of clientco staff likes you.
I have managed to find out her name and drafted the following email, just need to decide whether to send it! Does it sound ok or is it a bit creepy.
Hi
You don't know me but I am the guy that walks past your desk most days, we've smiled at each other a few times and we spoke a couple of weeks ago in the kitchen when I asked you what you were up to at the weekend and you said you were out with the girls on Saturday night and I said I hoped you wouldn't get too drunk lol. Anyway I was just emailing to ask how your night went. BTW I have just realised I haven't introduced myself, I am [BusinessAnalyst2012] but I suppose you guessed that from the "From:" field on the email header anyway lol. I am the Lead Business Analyst on the [redacted] project but don't worry it's not as senior as it sounds!
Regards
[BusinessAnalyst2012]
That note, or as it will no doubt be referred to in the subsequent trial "Exhibit A", is possibly the most disturbing thing I've read this year. And I've encountered inappropriately-amorous blokes whose idea of flirting is sending you sexy underwear. Every day for a week. And e-mailing you photos of themselves in various states of undress.
I think the most disturbing bit was "I am the Lead Business Analyst on the [redacted] project but don't worry it's not as senior as it sounds!" I was waiting for you to go on and explain that The Other Contractor makes a better rate than you, even though he's not the Lead.

Looks like BA2012's pulled then.
And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014
A quick looky at their previously started threads will show that the OP is a sockie or someone so mindnumbingly stupid that they wouldn't be able to send the email without cleaning all the tipex off the screen.
I'm looking forward to the next installment entitled The velcro on my shoes is twisted and I think they're on the wrong feet. How can I fix this?
