Reply to: Why do you think the UK is not part of Europe?

No, you presume wrong. It was aimed at moaning expats in general.

Ah, can't be me then as I have never considered myself as an ex-pat. Like Mich I have spent very little time in the UK, mainly Africa and mainland Europe. In fact most of my life has been spent outside of the UK but I still love it but when I go there, I hate certain aspects of it. Mind you, I hate certain aspects of everywhere. I think of myself as a European living in Europe and benefiting from that fact.

I've risen above it to a new level of a business owner/manager!

Very true AtW. Better to be running a struggling, edge-of-collapse genuine company than being a well-paid temp with delusions of independence.

Ah yes, it is all explained now - MD is a Medical Doctor and sasguru is reporting to her directly.

He could be working in a Wandsworth mental hospital, this would certainly explain a lot.

Well I wouldn't say 'concerned', no. More 'decided' than that.

Are you concerned about his mental health?

Sounds like a good reason to visit the doctor.

Well he said that he's got an executive prerogative

A janitor who reports to the MD indeed!

[Mich the Tester]

That's a big word for a janitor.

"Should I wax your desk or your legs sir?"

[AtW]

Anyway off home now, exercising my executive prerogative.

Insults here from racists and sas are always amusing. I mean, there is no harm in it, it is just an internet forum with people who are not trusted with enough work to fill the day.

[sasguru]

You certainly know how to maintain a conversation ... oh wait you don't!

You're still here aren't you?

It must be galling, then, that a taxi driver knows more about everything, bar hashing algorithms, than you.

Any Dane who can take being called a German and still laugh is pretty worthwhile.
