And if they're Dutch, Black Peter will put them in a bag and beat them
with a stick. (though, technically, he would already have done that, on
the 6th, I think) (perhaps that's why they were grumpy).

Don't worry Warren,

There are only three more sleeps 'til Christmas and we all know that at
least one recruiter will be getting coal this year.

:)

        I have just been hung up on.
        By a bloody recruiter.
        The usual thing, an enquiry (why are they always rude poms who
sound as though they would try and sell their grandmothers for warm
beer?) from some mob I last had contact with in Sept 2003; asking would
I be interested in a permanent role.
        I asked "Tell me about the role?" (Could people please let me
know if this question was relevant and fair).
        He replied: " I don't have the details about the role with me;
but..."
        I asked if he could send me the details before we continued.
        He hung up.

        Well what on earth is going the hell on. If recruitment agents
want some respect why the hell don't they give it? Were they just going
to use me as padding to get their incompetent little pet over the line?
Where is the fairness here? Where is the ethical behaviour that is meant
to provide everyone equal opportunity? Why should I say 'yes' to
something I know nothing about?

        So my response to you recruitment agents lurking in the
background on our techwriting list with your little black books at the
ready is this:
        Go stick your rudeness in your ear. HOW DARE YOU treat people
with SUCH CONTEMPT. The sooner you parasites learn some manners, the
better everybody will be. And let me assure you, if I get any funny
treatment from recruiters with even a sniff of discrimination against me
I'll land your festy butts into the anit-discrimination people quicker
than you can scratch'em. I can afford to do it now... And I bloody mean
it.

        Merry Xmas everyone else. Maybe.
