Since you are in a EU-country... none

That was the big scare a couple of years ago here..... "Oh noes, now all the old eastern block countries are getting into the EU, then they will come here and work for next to nothing!!!!"

And that didn't happen of course...

My company appears to be going backwards - when I started you only had to look smart if you were meeting external people. Tomorrow they're announcing we all have to look smart. Or at least smart casual. I may have to start ironing my jeans
You work in the IT area, right? Couldn't you just introduce some regular expression substitution scripts into the mail server in advance of the announcement?

Anyway, I thought a dress policy only applied if you wore dresses.... Or is the policy expecting everyone, in a slightly ill-thought out attempt at gender equality, to come in wearing dresses? Does your company work with Grayson Perry?

Hrm... it won't work for tomorrow, but possibly... I need to get at the CEOs speech, too though, so he announces the right thing.

I might be busy for the rest of the day

And also - mind bleach please? I have some images in my head that I really, really need to get rid of. Such as the mental image of various execs in little bo peep type dresses. Hang on - let me spread the pain - imagine Gordon Brown in a flouncy dress...

And in breaking news, a world-wide shortage of ZCDs has just occurred following a spike in consumption, and co-incidental with many psychiatrists switchboards being jammed.

In business news, a previously unknown company, Montsmags Enterprises, has just see its share price rise by over eighteen thousand percent. Their spokesman, Marc d'Noosa, was quoted as saying "".

As bad as the Buc's played, it could have been worse. They even scored a TD and picked Brady, TWICE!

Just installed WIN7. Now just picking up the pieces of what did or did not get done ... AT least Calibre, SciTe and ADE still work, and I've not lost my e-books ....

Looking good this far - but after only 18 hours there has been one necessary update !

As I'm NOT a fan of Tom Brady's any turfage or intercepting where he's concerned is a good thing.

Meanwhile -- I hope the crowbar is going to be okay?

If you start getting those really neat greens, yellows, and purple bruise colors, we probably need another picture!

I hope that today is going better for you, kindlekitten.

Your last few posts really reminded me about the malice that inanimate objects display towards us.
(Though Marc's pics were a dramatic visual revelation of the same sort of thing.)
