• Trevor's assessment

    From =?iso-8859-1?Q?Bri=2E?=@Brian@Derby.invalid to uk.people.silversurfers on Sat Feb 28 17:34:09 2026

    1 Trevor Adams, my assistant programmer, can always be found
    2 hard at work in his cubicle. Trevor works independently, without
    3 wasting company time talking to colleagues. Trevor never
    4 thinks twice about assisting fellow employees, and he always
    5 finishes given assignments on time. Often he takes extended
    6 measures to complete his work, sometimes skipping coffee
    7 breaks. Trevor is a dedicated individual who has absolutely no
    8 vanity in spite of his high accomplishments and profound
    9 knowledge in his field. I firmly believe that Trevor can be
    10 classed as a high-calibre employee, the type that cannot be
    11 dispensed with. Consequently, I truly recommend that Trevor be
    12 promoted to executive management, and a proposal will be
    13 executed as soon as possible.

    Addendum

    The idiot was standing over my shoulder while I wrote this report.
    Kindly re-read only the odd numbered lines.

    A new twist of "reading between the lines". Yes, clever.

    Quite old though, I've saved stuff that amused me for many years and
    much comes from early days on amateur packet radio. The English
    language post that follows was a bulletin from 25 years ago.
