Women are much politer (or is it lighter) than men. I've seen many a cyclist knocked or nearly knocked of his bike (and it's always a "his") doing that.

I doubt YOU are lighter than any man. Forget the Atkins, just get the jaw wire. Hopefully would de-emphasise the jawline, or rather chop-sag line.

I dont mind bikes, is the fecking cyclists I cant stand.
They seem to be a very aggressive breed in Canary Wharf, one this morning almost drove straight into me whilst shouting at me to get out of his way. I didnt and he had to swerve whilst I politely invited him to read his highway code.

How very dare you! As if agents think......

They don't need to think once they've had their Basic Lying Circuit installed.

Good to see you "thinking like an agent"

That was a permie interview, so a different legal entity. My contract work, I pick up through contacts.

[darmstadt]

Interview?? I haven't done one of those for years.

I want to know that I don't end up in a dead end. I'm a dev ( because I look to physically produce something ) and technology continually changes so unless I keep my skill set up to date It could become irrelevant.

By doing that I've never had a problem finding work in 20 years and it's always worked.

Ah! I'm a parasitic spiv, so my skills never go out of date.

[eek]

Meh, although I had expected you to pick up on the actual work bit

[SimonMac]

I'm fussy over who I work for and what they want doing. I interview the client to ensure the contract will provide me with suitable learning opportunities or entertainment.

If I'm not going to get anything out of it except cash I'll look elsewhere

I thought that. Good to see you "thinking like an agent"

Oxymoron, Shirley!

I work for myself and I certainly don't want learning opportunities.

Am I the only one that was thinking this was about a bicycle hire scheme a la "Boris Bikes"?

I thought that. Good to see you "thinking like an agent"
