Negative. I have my own (copyrighted) Rule of Politics: Anyone who is possessed of the sort of mentality that is required to run for public office is unfit to hold it. :biggrin:

I can't believe I'm hearing that from a Spaniard!

A few hours work in the morning, then you all bugger off back to bed for the rest of the day, and you're calling the English lazy?! :biggrin:

I hate to shatter the illusion, but "WOOLEEDSFESTIVALYAY" doesn't begin with L.

COngratulations, you have discovered how much ironic were my words.

Well, take advantage of this time of rest. I think next year would be a difficult one working at an enterprise: stress..., burning,...nice secretaries and so on.

Every passing moment makes me wonder whether you're doing the better thing by staying in academia. Time will tell, my friend!

You know how much trouble Yanks have with the subtler concepts of civilized society, like combustible employees.

There was a comma between burning and secretaries... :wink:

Anyway, we spaniards usually burn secretaries in another way: they feel usually burned out because an spaniard boss will always flirt with his secretary by definition. :!)
