mr.777


You are talking utter rubbish. I see you have downgraded it now from long shorts (still waiting for you to enlighten us as to what the difference is between them and shorts) and flip flops to "beachwear"...brilliant. I think you'll find you created the diversion by spouting this nonsense.
Really? From my original post...


ATCOs dressed for the beach
So where was the downgrading or diversion? Or did you think it best to create an imaginary one?



Back to your monkey comment; you kindly supplied a definition from the Urban Dictionary


"A person employed in an office".
But wait, the full definition given at the Urban Dictionary is

office monkey - A person employed in an office, usually in a subordinate, low-paying position.

Oh dear, you omitted the derogatory bits.

Let’s face it, for some reason, my simple mentioning of ATCOs wearing long shorts & flip flops to work touched a very raw nerve...

Mr.777


I will however go out of my way, particularly in summer, to make myself look as scruffy as is humanly possible when I go to CTC because I know it pisses them all off... "Look at the scruffy ATCO, what a disgrace"...yeah, get ****ed office monkey.
You initially tried to excuse this as


meant only as a bit of fun
And when pressed you fall back on a version of the old chestnut

some of my best friends are ***** and they don’t mind being called ***** *******

I hope you'll forgive me if I remain unconvinced.

Frank,
I was given my nick name nearly 40 years ago. The first two letters are my initials. The second two stand for "Idle Git", and the "let" is from a WM, who didn't like single sylabub names.
It was given in fun, it's not PC, lighten up....'cos you're not living up to your ndp :D

ImnotanERIC 21st June 2009 22:22

it's not derogatory to be subordinate to an atco. be pleased you are employed monkey boy.......... milk and two.

To be frank Eric, you think the lesser spotted monkey of office would be more swish with the use of a keyboard!!!! Must be less competent after too many costa my coffees!!!!
Now go cry to mamma :{

Frank Disclosure 22nd June 2009 18:19

ImnotanERIC I thought I’d preserve your post as it looked like one of those late night posts that often disappears by the morning and I didn’t want that happen.

Hope you don’t mind ;)


ImnotanERIC

it's not derogatory to be subordinate to an atco.
Really? I didn’t know ATCOs had any subordinates; who are these people are and what form does their subordination take?

Last time I was in TC the ATCOs had to peel their own grapes :)


ImnotanERIC


be pleased you are employed
I am pleased I’m employed thanks, as I imagine you are too, always nice to have the mortgage paid isn’t it :O

ImnotanERIC

monkey boy
Oh there you go spoiling things.

Never mind I expect being so superior it’s quite normal for you to be calling people monkey boy.

And you don’t need to do it from behind the safety of a computer screen do you! Très courageux!


ImnotanERIC

.......... milk and two.
I’d suggest far more soda myself :ok:

Definately an E.R.I.C. :E

Caesartheboogeyman 22nd June 2009 21:59

we need less office monkeys.
Surely there is an excel or word forum that you could go to and discuss issues such as "when is it acceptable to photocopy your own balls, before work, at lunch, after work or never?" etc etc etc

Don't know why all the fuss about office monkeys ? :E

Frank Disclosure 23rd June 2009 22:56

So you wear flip flops & long shorts to work, think a lame website called crapunion.co.uk is hilarious and you like to called people who aren't ATCOs monkeys.

My, my, how clever ATCOs are.

White Hart 23rd June 2009 23:09
