First Day In Geneva.....
Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

geneve is cool. lots to do and see. great climate in summer, if a tad humid and of course france is next door [as are italy, germany & austria practically]. relax, enjoy it -go take a trip on the lake, yvoire is nice in the evenings - and think yourself lucky you're not back here in blighty suffering gordo's gloom.Comment

According to some surveys, Geneva and Zürich rank in the top three best places in the world to live. I've no idea why - I can only assume that the surveyors didn't visit Neasden.
Geneva (and Switzerland in general) is expensive. Especially as £1,000 used to be worth CHF2'400 18 months ago, and is now worth only CHF1'600.
Forget the credit crunch. Switzerland isn't a credit economy. It'll suffer external pressure from the severely screwed up economies, but not internal.
Switzerland is great for skiing. I'm off to Engelberg this Saturday. If you're the type of person who needs lots of night life. Maybe be CH isn't the place for you.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment
