    Quite funny that as he has been considering running the 400m and no I don't make that assumption at all as I can work more or less depending on the flow of work. The fact is some weeks 35 hrs isn't going to cut it but obviously you're not worried about what your client thinks of you and will probably do your 35 and leave it that
    Some of us don't need to work long hours to get the work done on time.

    I think it's too much like actual work for him Wasn't he talking about trying the long jump?

      Lazy sod. Mind you, laziness is generally a good thing for sprinters. Dunno how he'd do in the long jump; his back has been trouubling him and the landings might hurt.

      Usually the prediction of potential 400m times is (4*100m PB) * 1.1; looks crude but it's surprisingly accurate. That would give Bolt a good chance of running 42.4, which would be worth watching and would get him the world record. Just an indication; for club athletes getting under 50 seconds is a milestone they all aim for, and they aren't slow. Bolt would be over the finish line while they're still coming out of the bend. In fact anyone who can run 400m under 60 seconds is really very fit. It's a hell of a long way to sprint.
      And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014

        Hahahahaha that's very funny, why don't you come and help me out then? or better still tell ClientCo how they could be more efficient I'm sure they would like to know how they could get all their projects finished on time.

          Better QC on the contractors they hire would help.

          Why would I want to come and help at a client which expects 40+ hour weeks?

                Why would I care what the Swiss do? In some countries people work 60-80 hour weeks as standard, you lazy fecker. Get off CUK and work, or is the reason you have to work so many hours because you're always on the internet?

                    OK. If it's important for you to show your boss how many hours you work, you go get 'em tiger.

                      Sure is it's what that thing called a contract says if you can actually grasp that, but then I guess that as you only answer to God it wouldn't matter what's in a contract.
