Anyway, let us know how the raise goes. If it comes out of the President's entertainment fund [unlikely], cool.
If it costs a gate attendant or kitchen hand, or possibly both, their jobs, well at least your honour is satisfied. And remember, if someone's post seems to vaguely support you, quote it in full!
Meanwhile, I'm going back to writing my genetics textbook, for which I'm well qualified. Two degrees, you know.[/quote]

You really need to learn some comprehension skills mate. I like the lawyer - i said already that he is a better negotiator - fair dues to him.

'if someone's post seems to vaguely support you, quote it in full!'

I quote cut and paste my own way - if this is the best you can do - then you are really struggling for a come back

'Anyway, let us know how the raise goes'

I teach Fridays in an affiliated primary school in Bengbu - there was a dinner last night. I talked to the boss. 7,500. I started at 9 but its ok.

'If it costs a gate attendant or kitchen hand, or possibly both, their jobs, well at least your honour is satisfied.'

Every FT in China earns 3-10 times a local wage. If you have ever earned such a wage then throwing it back at anyone is hypocitical at best

'I'm going back to writing my genetics textbook, for which I'm well qualified. Two degrees, you know'

Id like to see that book. Rule of thumb - science is difficult -arts - not so much.

But there was some word that he (NathanRahl) would add an apostrophe to that it didn't need, but I'll be danged if I can remember it! And he'd do it consistently but when anyone would try and correct him on it, he'd get all bent out of shape. Ahh, good times!

Nathan got hammered into submission. Twisted Evil

Had I known you enjoyed playing with him so much, I would have lightened up, and maybe he'd have hung around awhile. Give me a heads up next time. Laughing

Vandros may not be far behind (and don't let the door hit you in the azz on the way out Exclamation

) Actually I think Nathan was more tolerable than Vandross. Maybe he's right. maybe I really do need a shrink Embarassed

. Woot! Good times!

Zhuhao,
