Dear Mrs Daff

We have noted your comments in respect of 'drugs' and will amend our wording on the job description form forthwith.

We did mean of course mean the term "drugs" to apply to non-prescription drugs of a mind altering nature and was not intended to deter those with a medical condition from applying, Indeed the experience of someone with a medical condition is always a valuable asset in terms of experience and understanding for others.

Re alchohol, it is expected that the successful applicant will approach this in a sensible fashion, never being under the influence of it whilst at work, or 'on call'.

MrDaff Report 1 Aug 2010 11:26

Well, that sounds very honest to me, BC..

The bit that I worry about is the *no dependency on alcohol or drugs* so that rules me out... not the alcohol, as I don't often indulge anymore... but what with my BP tablets, and the painkillers etc.... oh, and what about all the drugs that some people who have a disability need to take, to maintain a normal life?

*frets cos the terms and contitions are actually what is that word? it escapes me... oh yes, discriminatory*

Otherwise I would apply for the post... maybe there would be a place for me in the *hug your pet today* section? I am very very good at that ;¬))

Love

Daff xxxx

Dear Buttercup Fields,

It is possible that on certain occasions your rather robust approach may be just what is needed. Between you and I in the past we have found Claire's softer style rather irritating, it may well be time for a change of tack. Telling it like it is and to "Pull yoursef" together can, in our opinion, bring results. Genuine problems have of late been squeezed out by the influx of rather self-pitying whingeing ones which could be best solved with tough love.

Please reply directly to Soulsearching Ltd if responding to this...Claire has been a valued member of our team and we don't want to upset the old bat...erm lady...before her leaving party.

SS Ltd.

*gets despondent......So,Ms Claire, a reply to a problem like 'get a life', 'windya neck in' and 'shut ya gob' and suchlike, would not be deemed appropriate? Even if meant with sincerity and a degree of helpfulness?

Dear Claire,

on further consideration I have decided to put forward an application re the "Cathy" post. If successful I feel I could work as an agony "aunt" in a different area of experties. I have not got a head for poetry nor on for debating sensitive issues. I do however, have the type of head that enjoys sport and fun sometimes at the same time (not often with my team lol). I feel it would be a good move to employ me in the realm of agony "aunt" as I know how to address situations re sport and fun and could phone a friend regards debates and poetry. I say look no further.

Perfect for the role x
