I had to do a project demo to a company (part of an IPT thing)

No lap top.
No cd burner in the office.
USB keys not allowed due to regs.

So I took a floppy disk. Well I looked a total plonka at the company company demo.....standing there with a floppy disk......their computer used for the presentation had no floppy drive.... and they had not seen a floppy drive for donkey's years.

And the folks was only last year.

The RAF beats you with a stick with rules and regs, treats you like a thief, and never gives you the damn tools to do the job, however they expect you to do the job.

So what does everone do? Well 2 options:

1. You do the work on your own private laptop and break every rule in the book.

2. You continue with your RAF issue floppy disk looking even more of a total plonka.

Tools to do the job! Simple no tools the job does not get done.

I just wish more folks in the service would do option 2 above then things might get sorted.
