Mr Baskerville is continuing his search for Top Job. Today he found one which looked like it might even be interesting, at least some of the time!*
The job description was roughly the length of War and Peace, but Mr B ploughed through it (coincidentally, Mr B ploughed through War and Peace while working at his last job (and no, Mr B was NOT fired from said job, however surprised his reader may be (Mr B was actually very good at his job, when he could be arsed))).
Ahem. Anyway, the very last paragraph of the job description called for these skills:
Ability to effectively deal with upset or irate clients. Ability to exercise tact and discretion.
Bugger. Mr B has frequently dealt with irate clients, successfully (ie they gave up complaining and went away) but sadly he has never exercised tact and discretion. One could say his tact and discretion are unfit, flabby and never leave the sofa.
*whereas the only interesting parts of his last job were the coffee breaks with Mrs Eaves.

Irate clients or irate coworkers? They all suck.
Mr Baskerville has only a vague recollection of coworkers, as his last job was so long ago. He seems to remember though that one of his colleagues was the epitome of wankiness.
And one of them was the epitome of loveliness.
