Benched

[Clippy]

Based on recent posts, there seems to be a fair number on here who are on the bench - either voluntarily or in-voluntarily.

Without resorting to a poll because they are so last year, who is on the bench, how long have you been on there and what area do your skills lie in.

I have no skills whatsoever and seem to be avoiding it quite nicely.

I was going to get a bench last summer to put next to the garden swing. But the summer wasn't really there in 07 so I might get it later this year.

I custom built my bench for the garage out of 6x6 & 6x2 timber coach bolted together.
Added a No3 Vice - all sorted

True, polls are so Passé

Am currently on bench (fairly long term - 3 months) but the initial bench attraction has worn thin and I'm resolutely determined to be off it in the next four weeks.

Skills PM, SQL, Legacy Migrations, VFP

I have not been on the bench since I was an employee and sitting on the bench on salary is not so bad

I have a nice wooden bench in the garden that i was going to sell in a couple of months just to hit the summer buy boom.

As of Friday I will be involuntarily benched, I'm a support monkey with a 2 month old baby and my wife thinks she's having a year off.

Uber doomed.

Your wife's Maternity Allowance will buy you a lot of that 26p a pint supermarket cider if things get really bad !
