    When it comes to certain things I can be confident. But then theres things I am useless at.

    As for hating royal mail. They really do get to me. As for insurance being shift work, I work on personal lines and she works on claims notification and assistance

    On the first thread he posted on the boards, it was very much like this one.

    And it is possible that people can be confident in some aspects of their lives and not others.

    Simon doesn't seem so unsure of himself on other posts he's made recently. It's almost as if he has a dual personality. Plenty of confidence when joining in other discussions, almost to the point of arrogance on occasions. He doesn't like Royal Mail, that's for sure!

    Just treat her like one of your insurance clients, i.e. listen to what she has to say and make her feel relaxed in your company. Don't tell her she's a 'tool' for liking Eastenders though! ;)

    Still wondering what on earth her role in your firm is, that you had an office shut-down for eight days over Christmas, while she had to work shifts. I didn't know insurance was a "shift" working job.

    (Well there was nowt on telly tonight...)


    Also most insurance companies have been open over the Xmas/New Year Period except Bank Holidays. I've got to admit I'm starting to question this thread as I've followed it from the start.

    Do people need to question it? Some workplaces are open. But not all staff are working.

    Some companies allow full time staff to take annual leave over the festive period. My brother is off work for two weeks, but apart from 4 days over Christmas and new year his workplace is open.

    I wasn't questioning that aspect of it, rather the first part of BB's post.

    If people don't believe this thread is genuine fair enough, but do people need to be caught out as it were?

    Just because some offices are open doesn't mean staff can't be on annual leave.

    No, someone else mentioned the job and holidays.
