  • Trinidad & Tobago

    Out of 3,000 people questioned in a poll commissioned by UKTV G2, 37 percent thought the country was in Africa and 19 percent felt confident it was in the South Pacific.

    A further 10 percent did not even know it was one country.

    I would like to point out that it was part of the British Empire until 1962.

  • Somebody worked hard here

    I don't want to appear a prude but I expect something better than this at work:

    What it fails to mention are the naked furniture diving, sex in the lavatories and vomiting in coffee cups then leaving them to fester in filing cabinets.

    Civil servants at the agency’s office in Newcastle upon Tyne have been officially disciplined, and at least one dismissed, after one of their colleagues blew the whistle on their antics.

    Besides the fact that these antics are paid by the taxpayer, I think that most of us don't particularly enjoy being at work, wishing to be elsewhere. If then on top of the fact that we are forced to be there we also have to put up with the company of morons, well that is a bit too much.
    Who are these people?
    I am not even very keen on people that swear at work (especially people in a position of authority), I don't get offended that easily, that is not the point, but I resent the fact that my colleagues and I have to put up with that behaviour. I strongly believe that people can do whatever they wish in the privacy of their own homes but in a public place, especially one that you cannot leave easily if you don't want to end up unemployed. I think that's not on.

    ASBO them please.
