    I work for RBS in a support capacity so feel less safe than the Natwest bloke :eek:

    On the plus side, at least I'm not an investment banker which is little more than a spelling mistake :D

    I work for an internet forum monitoring company who specialising in archiving questionable threads about Polish people, single mums, workshy chavs, poorly written articles about buy to let properties, how rubbish our Prime Minister is and printing money.

    We seem to be doing pretty well at the moment.
