Hi All,
I recieved a text last night from an Agent asking what time was best to call me today for a role, I told 'him' a time and ensured all was correct and quite for the call. No Call so it would seem this agent was using the old bait the line and for the client 'see I have this many'. To quote Lee Harvey Oswold 'I am a Patsy!'...walks off muttering about agents

I did not know, we need a dress code to call you. Is Business casual is enough to call you or you expect something more conservative

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

I wonder how long the guy who played the stormtrooper had to hear about that one.
Still, Tie pilots[^] look more intimidating. Too bad the dirty rebels don't get to see them much when they are at work.

Yeah, the black armour made them look mean! (also like the Family Guy 'Blue Harvest' Tie fighter joke) Still I wonder if you could transfer between Storm Trooper, Biker Scout, AT-AT driver... I mean you start out on your feet and promoted up the ranks till your driving a walking block of flats...

Yes it is possible, it happened. Also TIE pilots may look more intimidating but that's a pathetic excuse for their crafts not having their own life support systems, so they had to rely on pressurized suits. They didn't even have a Hyperdrive...

He was just being diplomatic and told the truth from a certain perspective, as always. Only Imperial Stormtroopers are SO precise.

Look at the Tie Defender I posted a link to somewhere above. 
Did You ever play Tie Fighter. In the last missions you get the Tie defender, but the standard Tie is still great. Two fast ion engines and two lasers with a seat. What do you need more?

Once read a Star wars book about the AT-AT driver who pointed out a possibly critical design flaw of the AT-AT prototype. He found himself quickly transfered to his new post. With the stormtroopers, who were not be happy to be called 'foot soldiers'.
At my first employer we had some meaner names for the infantery, like mudskippers or moles. And they always stink like moist soil.

Just realised that I spelt competencies wrong in the technical competencies header on my CV that I've been sending out for the last month or so.
Strangely it doesn't seem to have put many people off, if they've even noticed. My face. That's what puts them off.
Top Tip: By default Word doesn't check the spelling of words that are all in capitals.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

Topper tip - instead of writing in capitals, use 'init-cap' format on the font to make it look far more betterer.

If the section headers hadn't been in all caps then it would have been obvious to people that I'd made the mistake, although then I wouldn't have made the mistake. Hmm.

That's a shame as you can always correct the typo.
