better than just signing with your name and nothing else. Or people who don't say "Hi" first thing in an email, just your name ughThis is my pet peeve! I feel like I'm being shouted at!Yeah that's just normal polite things to say in an email

Bring your own packed lunch to a meeting? It's bad enough when people expect you to miss your lunch break and have a meeting instead, but to not provide lunch is just taking the mick.
Because I'm petty I'd definitely pack something super stinky for lunch. Hello egg and tuna fish sandwiches!
that'd probably be the end of lunch meetings
Me too! it always seems serious and urgent!!
Just a FYI. The company i am working is having an annual strategy meeting at a nice venue on Friday. I made a comprehensive list of everything written on this thread, and handed it to 3 of my fellow senior managers. We have a competition going between the four of us, the one who uses the most of the phrases mentioned will win a prize. I hope i can sit with a straight face during the day, but very excited as this will just make my day!
Keep us posted how you get on

I contacted an agency, saying I'd just done an admin course but hadn't any actual experience. They said I wouldn't be suitable as they were looking for 'all-singing, all-dancing' workers. So sign up the Black and White Minstrels, then, I thought but unfortunately didn't say!
I saw an internal job yesterday ad saying experience in particular software would be "the icing on the cake, but we are happy to take a sponge and decorate it ourselves"
