In my first job a Junior Engineer was nicknamed Slinky. He was useless at his job, but it was funny when he fell down the stairs (which he did virtually every watch)!0

So, now it's you sitting in the pub, "interviewing" people from afar..??
"Part P" is not, and has never been, an accredited electrical qualification. It is a Building Regulation. No one can be "Part P qualified."

Once at an interview I was greeted in reception and the interviewer asked if I was fine to take the stairs. Not wanting to mention the fact that I was just getting over a chest infection, I agreed. We then proceeded to jog up three flights of stairs! He launched straight into the interview, oblivious to my difficult breathing. Needless to say I didn't get the job!0
