Is this woeful person in the habit of doing "runners" ? I must make a point of blacklisting him. Sounds unstable to me.

Dear scot47'
Well, he could be a stable doors, but those are usually closed here only after the horse has already fled.
Regards,

Has he really been telling us just "tall stories"? After all, in his own words, he is one of the 3 "Malesketeers" in this entire forum!
Give him a break or maybe you could call in a favour from the largest member of the 3 Billy Goats Gruff to deal with him and then you can "butt" out gracefully, but then I suppose he could end up with multiple breaks and he would have to complete his career in a familiar but reduced state as a very much "plastered" garden gnome!

Dear Scot47 and Johnslat,
Well, we knew him with great affection (and utter relief!) as Backdoors - this is because he ran out that way when he left. We can't complain though, the work atmosphere improved markedly after his departure.
Seriously though, we wish him well and hope that he finds solace in his Polish vodka.
regards
Elaine

Doing runners is like war, sometimes, morally justifiable.I owe the company nothing.I'm currently officially on leave and I didn't take my holiday pay.My son comes before any employer in this rotten industry and in fact,anything/one else in this world or the next. Unstable...well, it's been said but generally by people who know very little about me.By the way Hamish,Wyberova is 5 zl/shot...pepsi is about 3.Nice of you to keep the world so well informed.Stick to postings about Saudi and the accuracy of your posts will improve in no small measure.Excuse the pun.Humour not on top floor right now. As for past accusations of anti-Americanism..forgive me but I'm here to meet an old American 'friend 'who is currently planning on visiting my ex-wife in Poland,in August.Needless to say,he doesn't know I'm here.Guns are nearly as cheap as the Wyberova.Catch my drift.

If only he used ESLCafe, he might have avoided a messy end.
Does anybody else have any stories of their lives being saved by using online discussions forums, especially ESL based ones

Or have there been previous examples of the public announcement of an a murder in waiting on any reputable EFL discussion boards, if so what was the outcome?
Obviously any threats to kill the F*****ng DOS are just part of ones ongoing professional development

First rule of the desert,never leave your vehicle.Second rule, never move in on your mates' exes.I've still got a couple of months to prevent this.She's mad at me,a tadge confused and if this happens it's just ridiculous.I'm doing the right thing.I just haven't figured out whether to do it with a 9 mil in close at the airport or with a 7.62 from further afield with a night scope.He might not even come............
