Sorry GF, just picked this up - ahem... are you suggesting that ALL men are unarmed in the wits department or just the ones you have been scrapping with??

Apologies, the lawyer in me cannot resist the sophist guile, the wit, the craft, the carefully timed final demand

Oops, lawyer? read professional dilettante instead


Dear Tiggles (reverting to previous non-acceptable nominclature)
I am suggesting... or stating if you would prefer that most men taken in the general sense of HUMAN KIND (of which I am assuming you are a member of, tigga or not ) which are in positions of power (supposed or real) are mostly blowing hot air to keep their egos, positions, or self-acceptance up to the over-inflated norm that is basic SOP.

Remind me, my dear solicitor, , to never offer any back up to you, as its true... tiggas eat their own.


In self preservation..

My condolences to you, Growltigga. And on a side note, you are not really fired, are you?!?

GrowlTigg,
Um, er, yes, what Mephisto said.
Or did you do that to get more time to practice SEVI G? More of your guile showing through?
You better not quit this game befor I shred your ships with Plasma torpedos.
Other than that, I have seen your tallents and would hire you anyday. I don't charge much for my referances either.
Edit: PS, the Last person I remember using "Au revoir " was Richard Nixon.

RE: Length of Thread,
Maybe, but in therms of quality contribution to the players of SEIV, I'd say there are many other threads that would win.
Now, I you were to rate it on cross culteral studies then we may have a definate winner.
It certainly has been educational for me.
Edit: (ment in good humor)
Slightly reworded

Well, my line manager has said my resignation shouldbe accepted as I am obviously not committed to the company and the firm.

My ultimate boss and head of team has told my line manager to go.... ahem.... herself and has pointed out in my favour that calling a member of staff in after a late flight and from compassionate leave is pretty bad.

So where I am now is that I am having dinner with my ulimate boss tonight to discuss things (salary will be right a the top of my list I can assure you as will my line mananger)

Failing which, I have spoken to a friend at another firm who would be game on indeed.. so the answer is

No, I have not been fired, I resigned and if I do leave, I have somewhere to go

If "Au Revoir" or "Hasta La Vista" are not to your liking, how about "Auf Wiedersehn" or "Eey Awwww" in Mephisto's honour

Dear Aphrodite's peaches, dear jewel of the desert, dearest helen of troy, as a sophisticated, intelligent, civilised and expert practioner of the "artes gourmand and infatuando" (as well as being true blue English), please be assurred that like any discerning feline, I see through the artless sophistry and pompousity so prevailent in those in administrative functions, whether male or female, and take great delight in proving by the use of cunning linguistic art that they are blowing hot air at great speed from their behinds.
As stated by Sophocles, Plato, Thucydides and Socrates, it is surely proven that in any organisation, there are those in administrative jobs who could not find their arses with an atlas

Hey! I'll have you know I am NEVER lonely. The voices in my head provide plenty of company!

Phoenix, please accept my most humble and profound apologies for what I hope you have taken as good natured rib-tickling - you have never ceased to make me laugh out loud and proud

May be you can get some chat up lines from these voices and if some of them are girls, heck, you could date those without leaving the house!!
