No, I’ve never impersonated DHG or any other blogger. I just think you should fuck off.

I do mind telling you, mainly because you dont need to know.

Nothing to do with the fact that your “lunch hour” just stretched to a full 92 minutes, then:

Oh jolly good – so you won’t mind telling us which bank it is that has this generous IT policy, will you?

Neil,

Employees can use the net and blog in their lunch hour privately without having to state who their employer is. When you get a job you will still be able to blog also.

Cheers

So which bank is it, Andy jarm? I might not be one, but your customers deserve to know.

By: Neil

Neil — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 13:57:06 +0000

So, which bank is this, that pays their employees to add comments to LibCon?

As someone who may or may not use its services, I think I have a right to know.

By: Andy Jarm

Andy Jarm — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 13:51:45 +0000

It is new for me yes. It isnt a duty, more of an infrequent, sadistic pleasure.

By: Neil

Neil — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 13:50:50 +0000

Interesting, I didn’t know posting comments on LibCon was one of a banker’s daily duties. Is this a new thing?

By: Andy Jarm

Andy Jarm — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 13:49:18 +0000

I am paid to be a banker mate, yes, one of the tossers who works 15 hour days to generate the taxes that pay for everything

By: Neil

Neil — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 13:46:33 +0000

You think I am paid to post entries on this site!

Yes, because that’s what you told us at comment #15.

Lee, apologies if I did mate, have work to do and can’t give this my undevoted attention all day. cheers

You think I am paid to post entries on this site! Guess what – not everyone in the world of work is a blogger/twitterer/hack/politico etc etc.

Some of us have to work on less interesting but more economically productive areas.

“As it happens I am at work currently generating taxes to support the likes of you.”

So you *are* being paid to post on LibCon?

Fascinating.

DHG, I was making a generalisation – consistent with my hypothesis that twitterers are MORE LIKELY to be left-wing. A generalisation in this context is wholely appropriate. I did not say that twitterers are ALL left-wing. Dear oh dear. People who work are more likely to be right-wing as they are paying taxes and like to see something for it.

As it happens I am at work currently generating taxes to support the likes of you.

Have fun
