Hi
We had a chat on equality and diversity a few weeks back as part of being a college etc, and something like that won a young girl who took their company to court around the £250 000 mark in compensation, hence the training we think we will be having.
Cheers

Well my phone is in my pocket next to my car keys and has been since I got the car 2 years ago and it hasnt failed to start yet. I had a good going argument with the diagnostic bloke and I am still not convinced.
What I find hilarious with some folk is that when their mobile goes they answer it and proceed to walk round the room in circles or half way round a car park or all over the garden. Dont they look stupid..Why cant they just sit on their arse.  _________________ The Clan Chieftain |

Yes, isn't that odd? The memsahib and my eldest son do this, perhaps it's hereditary... passed down through the female side of the family I may add.  _________________ Due to the onset of my mid eighties I'm no longer sprightly and rarely seen in my Austin special.

My 30 year old son does it as well. When his phone goes he answers it and disappears halfway up the garden.  _________________ The Clan Chieftain |

Bluetooth.............now theres a belter. People walking around with a massive deaf aid stuck in their earhole. I keep thinking they are nuts talking to themselves until I see that their earhole is flashing away......But if the truth be known I am a bit of a dinosaur stll thinking it is still the 60s.  _________________ The Clan Chieftain |

I guess being in sales I work on the basis that a call could be about a potential order and... as I get commission on orders, which pays for my cars, I'm quite prepared to take calls from anyone at pretty well any time. It on 100% of the time set to "meeting" which means it doesn't ring but simply flashes and buzzes, if I don't want to answer it I have that option. It's really no fuss.  |
