Lets hope - it should be OK (without wishing to tempt fate) my company doesnt tend to get involved with redundancy if it can help it!

Here's hoping they can't turn you into 'natural wastage' then.

Yes.  Please tell us.  I know you keep telling me, but it sounds all high-brow and impotent and I keep dozing off halfway through.

You're very kind mate - but its not very exciting -


In a nutshell - I am part of a team that oversee's the activity of the different parts of the bank to ensure that their activities do not pose a risk to our reputation or business - so in other words they are responsible for doing things the "Right way" but we keep a watching brief on current activities and consult on new ones to ensure that we dont do anything daft in the name of generating business.


Thats about it! - lots of meetings, teleconferences and reading and writing reports - its more fun than handling complaints though which was my last job!


Sha76jam - whenever I see your name on the board I read it in my head as "SHAZAM!" like a magic thing - dont know why but thought I should share...

I wish you hadn't.  It's stuck in my head too now.  Geesh, thanks Stead.

JDK, your link returns a file not found?


I feel it would be unwise to comment until I've read it!

Close enough.  I was thinking here: http://www.fact-index.com/c/ca/captain_marvel__dc_comics_.html , but it gets the job done, eh?


Fixed it now, anyway.

I always read it as Shazam too - didn't want to say anything before incase it made me look a little crazy, but since I'm not the only (and some-one else mentioned it first)...  See I'm just a sheep following the flock really.  Baaaaaaaaa
