    Antisocial b'stds

    ClientCo.

    Been there 15 months, and still not invited to department Christmas lunch. Only knew they were going because they rearranged a twelve o' clock meeting. Miserable feckers.

    To show no hard feelings; give them all a round of coffee tomorrow, with added laxitive.

      I have to say I'd consider that a lucky escape. Sorry.

      Why not take in a box of 'Christmas' doughnuts and make them all feel like shit:s?

          You're probably right.

              We had five team outings today (coffee shop, post room, lunch, mid afternoon coffee and team meeting). I was invited to all 5 but gave my apologies for the last. I don't need to know how the new appraisal scheme as I'm currently butchering it for them.

                  That'd be me then. I believe there are lots of others - I've just never met them. MaccyD's it is.

                  Maybe my agent will part with 0.1% of the commission he's made from me and buy me lunch.

                    Only way I ever found was to refuse to sign any contract or extension accept over lunch.

                    I once persuaded an agent to take me and Mrs BP up the oxo tower. But his boss refused. Chaepskate.
