I think I'll probably wait to see what Ben says. He's got an interesting moral code.
And then I'll listen to you because he's just a hippy.

I've been to the pub. <---------------------------moral disclaimer.
Re: Last one to post wins the internets
Going to the Harvester for Sunday lunch with missus Barbie and the 2.4 children doesn't constitute going to the pub.
Even if you were allowed to have half a lager and lime.
Re: Last one to post wins the internets
No no no somebody at work is leaving, they felt the need to celebrate. It's monday, by the way.
I've had 3 points. Pints, even. Don't tell Mrs Barbie. Also .4 of a kid is a bit weird, like, but it makes nappy changes easier.

Do you know the accountant. If not, then do it. I just got back from undercutting a rival tree surgery firm. Their prices are fixed, and I know them, so I knocked £50-£100 of the price they would charge for each tree-fell.

Bugger me. How much does it cost to cut a tree down :o
At least £101, one would assume. Thank jebus I don't have any errant trees.
Anyhow, thanks for that, Ben. I definitely will give the undercutting a go based on yours and barbie's stolid advice.
In other, slightly related news, I've just come off the phone to a mortgage advisor who told me I don't have people skills.
A fecking mortgage advisor.
He was being quite nice about it and packaged it with a back-handed compliment about my being an academic obviously precluding such an eventuality but I'm quite taken aback.
I didn't know that I was an academic, btw. Perhaps I'm not and I do have, in actual fact, mad people skillz. Maybe I should just stop lending credence to the words of mortgage advisors.

You're simply going to have to back this up with pics. I refuse to believe it.
I've just found out that it costs an obscene amount to cut trees down and I'm not sure if I'm an academic and therefore pish with people.
I remain unconvinced of my ability to process any more shocks today.

If you can't show her that you are willing to be underhanded and devious in nature, how is she going to rely on you to cook her books when she really needs you?
Aren't they teaching ethics in Accounting school these days? :ermm:
