grrrrr

[freckles_and_doubt]

Thought for the day: the student sitting in my office waiting for me to finish a phone call would receive a far more favourable response to his actually completely inappropriate and misdirected query if (a) he had taken a bath any time in the last week, and (b) he wasn't chewing gum continuously with his mouth open.

Also, if the phone doesn't stop ringing, I may have to acquire a shotgun.

That is all.

Gum chewer: You put on the Mum tone of voice & tell him to bin it if he wants your help, or to leave, Right Now!

Phones ringing: some phones come with a three position switch underneath somewhere (ok, so I have Really Old Technology) which can be switched to 'Hi', 'Low' or 'Off'.
*Pause for you to rant on spelling 'Hi' like that*

'Off' is great, but not good for business. 'Low' is better than 'Hi'.

Otherwise suggest you invest in a hose!
