Au Contraire - he offered me the use of it earlier in the year. I think the week was in May but I couldn't do it then.

With me, yes. We've been getting on really well for a while now. I've realised that when the management come up with some new wheeze of an idea that inevitably means more work for us, the person to turn to is our most senior colleague. He's more capable than anyone of going into a meeting determined to push back on extra work and get his way. I've asked him a couple of times to deputise for me knowing this was what would happen. No amount of pressure works on him. He cannot be reasoned with. It's great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
