h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Well, after months of speculation, wild supposition and downright lies, the truth is out. DaveCorp will not be renewing their contract with ChasCo, and will instead be employing a group of trained monkeys. As well as increasing the quality of the data processing, this also makes sound financial sense, as the Dollar is currently exceptionally strong against the Banana.

This, however, leaves us ChasCo employees a little nonplussed. Some of us are required to continue doing DaveCorp's dirty work for a further month as if nothing has happened. Others will be moving to a world of opportunity working on one of the new Directory Enquiries lines (to quote a ChasCo spokesman: "Not the one with the two guys, the other one - the dull one."). Other possible ventures include customer service for a mobile phone network, or cleaning the lavatories.

All things considerd, I think it may be time to move on.

Take it from me. Updating the Phone directory service isn't a whole lot of fun. I did that for almost two years before I moved over here. I'd agree that it might be time to move on.

Oh that's a bummer.

Is there any gossip that you can leak before you leave? Celebs in the red, that sort of thing?

Yeah, spill! Spill!

But I agree that you should look for something else before you get ripped off/taken for a fool, etc.

Unfortunately I don't have access to the cardholder's account details once the cards have been issued. I can, however, reveal the names of several minor celebrities who have been issued with cards - but not here, obviously.

Fancy a drink down the pub later?

How nice of you to ask.

You mean there is a mobile phone company that we haven't tied up the call centre ops for?

Fly! Be free! After Chas Co and Dave Corp, where could be next? Wurzles Incorporated?

Surely if he ends up cleaning toilets it would be Wombles Inc.

I think you should take over Alistair Campbell's job. It would make politics so much more entertaining!

I believe in open and honest politics. Not all this spin. They even calimed all the lIberal Manifesto pledges which passed into Scottish law in the last Scottish elections.

I am with you on that one DD.

"I think you should take over Alistair Campbell's job."

I think I'll see if they still need someone to clean the toilets.

Isn't he doing that?

He might be soon.

According to ask h2g2, which was quoting an American website he used to be write dodgy books - F19585?thread=307275.

I think he is failing miserably. Look at all the effluent that is spewing out all over the place.
