Thanks Mitch, I was going to "reach out" to you on how to handle this one - looks like I don't have to any more.

I've only heard that used in American banks. Is it used elsewhere? It is a true twatism.

was the "fist of death" attacking his genitals at the time?

I think that's his other move. The 'squeeze of hurt'.

Brings a whole new meaning to 'FINISH HIM!'

I don't think you want to. Churchill practiced that skill by lying on the floor of a mens cubicle.

This unacceptable behaviour should be punished by expediting said persons to the ground floor using a method that's much faster and less comfortable than the escalator.

Dealing with IB users who have a need to keep using words like "unnacceptable", "expedite" and "who do I need to escalate this with?"

never really did that much customer interaction on projects before but it's featuring quite heavily on this one.

Aye, that as well.

Unfortunately the UK papers have taken to updating their web sites on a continuous basis, with the result that there is no longer a bunch of brand new articles to read when you first fire up the internet of a morning.

What they don't realise is that when you get in super early you can take your time over your first coffee or two and surf CUK

Turning up at 7:45 every day, come rain or shine.
Leave between 16:30 and 17:00, but that's fine cos he works super hard and is in really early.

Surfing da internet and posting on CUK while looking busy enough to convince clientco that I am a conscientious and hard worker.

Keeping my head beneath the parapet.
