well he is a ginge minge!you're taking the pi55 aren't you?he aint a trader's ar$ehole!will report back

Nope, not taking the pi$$ at all. Hmm, you could be right. I thought he was a trader, don't know what desk he was on. The incident did happen though, and I believe the individual was reprimanded for his actions... Don't think it was one of the FXOptions guys (who are obviously no longer there - apart from the grad that noticed the problem - and that one is a "she").Anyway, hope it all went well - I think this time around it was the IT Xmas parties that were/are non-events...

One wonders why people feel the need to be so childishat office parties!The most colourful incidents of all, however, have to do withthe inappropriate use of photocopiers and subsequent accidentsbecause of it!!! It must be a real pain for the NHS.

> The most colourful incidents of all, however, have to do with> the inappropriate use of photocopiersOK, everybody is silly sometimes. so is my proposal; remove all copiers for the duration of the holidays
