Reply to: I’ve counted 7 new bobs today

[Mich the Tester]

I went to see a client today.

They are in deep deep doodoo.

They are overflowing with bobs, working really really hard.

Yet I fear that client will not long be with us.

So I turned the contract down. The work would be interesting, but I don't think they'll last long enough to pay me bill.

I feel sad that the bobs don't know this...

So less of the disguised nastiness, I only see what're a bunch of contractors about to be stiffed.

Wise decision Mr Threaded. Exactly this happened to me last year and left me more than 20,000 euros out of pocket.

I’ve got 6 CVs stored on my home PC with almost exactly the same text, and all with different names on the top. Who teaches them this tulip?

HTH

Edit: More importantly, who teaches our kids Mandarin, Hindi or Arabic?

Sorry, but I do not have sympathy for the cuckoo.

thats about £3,600 per day. Not bad.

That's current liras - you can get paid old ones that were denominated

I need a good command of concise, written English to do what I do. This is how Bob applied for a job similar to mine two years ago:

JOB OBJECTIVE
To judiciously use the dynamism of my potentials and creativity in the pursuit of the company goals and embracing challenges, leading to self improvement and realization of set goals at the earliest possible time.

Needless to say, Bob rarely cuts the mustard when he applies for my job, charming though this chap undoubtedly is. So he sticks with development.

It looks like the output from one of those automated sentence generators.

I have seen a group of them all get charged the phone bills for their personal calls which came as a bit of a shock to them after several months of hours worth of calls a day.

"I.T. phone home"

Mich Tester Sahib you must be working in the same place I am. We should get the telephone bill checked - I'm sure they're on the phone home half the day.

You get paid 7 grand a day? Maybe Turkish liras, or should I say - liars

Maybe he's getting confused between bobs and bags (of sand).

Your talent for misunderstanding is unmatched.
