On the subject of phones - all these phone cases. So I have a phone that looks quite good and I'll put it in some w@nk looking case so that it stays looking good so that I get the most for it when I come to sell it....So for the whole time I own the thing it looks w@nk. But the person who gets it off me on the cheap gets a phone that looks nice!

Rule 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.

Some do have their uses and replace the need for a wallet. Others act as a stand for the phone which is nice if you want to use the phone for watching videos.Originally posted by BoredBloke View PostOn the subject of phones - all these phone cases.

Having to read through 14 pages of replies to this thread and finding I can't add anything new to what's already been said.

It baffled the hell out of me when I first met one, I did not realise he worked there and it was some odd, gigantic bloke who was hanging around making small talk with people. When I went to wash my hands he sprayed me with aftershave, at that point I figured he worked there so I thanked him and walked off. He chased me and told me to come back in and then pointed at the tip tray next to him. I gave him a quid and I got to leave in peace.Comment
