    Ha ha. You didn't tell me that last week when you allegedly left the note. Then you wait until I have boarded the plane to tell me the name it is under. Sound like you made it up to try to save face.

    When I came back I had more money than before I left as I earned more money for that week off than I spent on it.

    Ah. Permiedom. Paid holidays, got to love it haven't you.

    I'm just a little bit too young and frankly I'd get bored.
    Rubbish at security though, aren't you? Took you quite a few days to notice the "borrowers" had "borrowed" (alright, nicked) your precious test network...

    At risk of being ridiculed for asking a serious question, do you have:
    1. A genuine passion for IT, and/or
    2. High self discipline, and/or
    3. High ability?
    4. None of the above, I rely on BS alone.

    Right you peasants. Looks like the new SJC route is also using the latest planes, and so the entertainment centre looks great

    So Deadpool, Eddie the eagle and then Zoolander for me for the next few hours.

    Bye bye losers.
