    I've not really spoken to many Dutch people.

    But if they are anything like the muppet I deal with on this project, I hate them all.
    What are they doing?

    Being direct??

            They don't understand the concept of having a first name field (which contains your first name), a middle names field (for middle names) and a known as field (for your preferred name).

            So Johannes Carolus Schmidt (known as Barry) would ideally have a first name of Johannes, middle name of Carolus, preferred name of Barry.

            Oh no, my client says. We would have a first name of Johannes Carolus and nothing else. Or can we have a first name of Barry, no middle names, preferred name of Barry.

            So I now need to wipe out the correct data from 3500 records and populate it with the incorrect data

              North Holland.

                      Can't be ar$ed, if it took them over 2 months to get back to me regarding a first interview, just think how long it will take them to get back regarding a second interview.

                      I start the other gig in a few weeks.
