    Sorry dear, we don't do the gay thing (which I know will disappoint you enormously) but will gladly shove your handbag where the sun never shines. Now run along and find young Freddie, there's a good lad.

    Won it. Politics kicked in. Handed it over. Quit. They lost it. Closed Down. Say no more
    Or the abridged version: Lost it. Politics kicked in. Xmas party incident. Sacked. Closed down.

    I was only following orders guv, honest. To be fair, your recollection of events differs slightly from mine, in that the "test bed" consisted of a huge pile of cables with some routers and switches connected seemingly at random. I'm not quite sure what you were planning to test (as istr mentioning in another thread, perhaps it was the dust gathering properties of a Cisco 1600 router) but to my fairly well trained eye it looked almost exactly like a big pile of junk. So me and the desktop boys "borrowed it".
    You were a permie at the time, and technically in charge, but I simply invoked the "absence of direction and control" clause in my contract and ignored you. Whatever happened to your £10m project, by the way...?

    Imagine my surprise when the directors came down to see this all encompassing, fantastic piece of kit that was going to win a 10m contract, I walked into the room and there was an empty room except for a loan power cable and a monitor with a lead swinging from it.

    Lo and behold. A visit from the network fairy!!!!

    Team player, you cheeky git. I was in charge and you nicked my test kit for a 10million quid contract because the router was shiny.

    Respect My Authority......

    He did turn nasty once when I "borrowed" some kit from a test bed he had spend literally minutes assembling in a neat pile in a corner. Not really a team player is our MF. OK once you get to know him though.

    I'm sure he's a nice bloke really...
