    It would definitely work.
    I always thought General was for General questions about contracting, after all

    Instead off "have you read the first timers guide" he should put "have you asked that in general".

    True, this is where all the "fun" happens .
    However, I have seen some first timers, in here, that only post once

    Initially it was 21, 22, 23, 24 and 29. Just added 30 and 31. Which I already had off. Only difference is that I will be locked out instead of away.

    Can I do more whining or do I use up my whine quota on the first post?

    Additionally, if not at work, I probably wont sign in to CUK. What will you lot do without me?

    Support, name of BrilloPad? You're a kin pot washer aren't you?!?

    No, must admit, like the idea of forced leave, especially over Christmas. Saves you being treated like a perm at any point in the festivities.

    I share in this vision of "Schadenfreude"...I work in Cloud, so 10 days off before Xmas means the sky better remain blue during the furlough.
