Poor, poor Lenny Henry.

Yeah, my expectations were too high of the general public.

edit: Whilst being bored at work I have noticed that the forums seem to go quiet around 11-2. Why is this?

[energongoodie]

11 is about when I can be bothered to start doing work stuff.
Although I have just had the pleasure of escorting a gorgeous French girl around set. Always a pleasure, never a chore.

WHAT.

About the only decent female contact I get in the day is on here!

Not fair.

[Wolfshade]

I like my job, I rarely have to talk to people

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

I hate mine, I don't mind people unless they think that you're a mind reader. I DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE, YOU HAVEN'T TOLD ME YET! I DON'T EVEN KNOW YOUR NAME!
Gets me every time.

I work in Insurance. I am damned good at what I do, but the company recently set out a new progression path, making my position dead end.

Having climbed to the top of my department within a year of entering the industry, I'm now working my contacts. If all goes well, I'm joining the dark side and working for the Ombudsmen. Major pay rise (region of £10k more) and opportunities agogo. Not bad for a 32 year old drop out.

And I have GW to thank! Worked part time, blagged stewardship of a failing store where everyone was sacked for being rubbish, and turned it round in 4 weeks. Rosey glow from that, now onwards and upwards. Best thing to ever happen to me. Shame I stuffed up the management course!

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

Nice! None too shabby.
Question: I can has cuddly Meerkat toy?

But seriously, which insurance company do you work for?

[Mr Mystery]

Not really sure I can say!

[Tzeentch's Dark Agent]

So no Meerkat toy? I am disappoint.

[Mr Mystery]

No. I bloody hate those Adverts.
