This has been a topic of discussion amongst a large number of LU operations
staff, none of whom give this pillock any support whatsoever. The consensus
appears to be that the sooner he is discussing new opportunities with the
Jobcentre staff the better for all concerned.

Chaps,

Both links have wrapped round and are unusable without cutting and pasting
them first. This is a right royal pain in the arse! ;-)

Please learn to use tools such as www.makeashorterlink.com when posting long
links to newsgroups.

For the benefit of those who cannot link to the above, they can be accessed
via

http://makeashorterlink.com/?B35C24018

and

http://makeashorterlink.com/?E68C12018

respectively.

Thanks!

What's the betting that the RMT will go out strike if this guy gets sacked?

I agree. But the original link should always be included
as well -- it tells you what the document is and where it's
from, which is helpful for many reasons, since (eg) you might
not want to visit that sort of site at all. Also, the
shorter.link might expire or die after some time period
(whether they claim permanence or not), in which case the real
url is invaluable.

That, of course, assumes he actually belongs to RMT!

I bet he does... people who do things like this are the reason trade unions
exist!

To be fair, that's not true.

One could reasonably argue that people who do things like that are
the reason trade unions /continue/ to exist, and interesting debates
could be held on that topic, but that sort of ****wittery isn't
what they were created to protect.

This is one reason why links should always be placed in ... brackets;
it makes it easier for software to detect where they start and end.

Thus:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main...04/17/nbul17.x
ml&sSheet=/news/2004/04/17/ixhome.html#2 should work for you.
