Queues are for the proles.

Dear Walter,

I doubt it. I'd have to be on holiday for years for it to run out.

Well last day yesterday and so now benched.

Saw my offboarding email come through last night with all of the instuctions to turn off my access, email etc.

Just logged in, to see I still have all my access. Got to love IT incompetence.

You fool, it was a test. They wanted to check what you would do with open access, you irresponsible scroat.

I think and hope they won't pay you for July
