Today I'll be drawing up plans and raising an order to rip out some perfectly good round posts used for mounting signs so they can be replaced with square ones.
Why I hear you cry? Because someone has spun the signs around. A bolt through the banding is far too simple a solution.
I know my seat is a sure thing. Anyone else?
Great, just me then!
at least you're not in HR
...or a telephone sanitizer.
Whats a B Ark?
If you don't know then your seat is already reserved. 😉
Well that clears it up nicely, thanks.
I'm in recruitment I'm assured a spot despite being one of the few that actually give a shit.

[b][i]Golgafrincham is a red semi-desert planet that is home of the Great Circling Poets of Arium and a species of particularly inspiring lichen. Its people decided it was time to rid themselves of an entire useless third of their population, and so the descendants of the Circling Poets concocted a story that their planet would shortly be destroyed in a great catastrophe. (It was apparently under threat from a "mutant star goat"). The useless third of the population (consisting of hairdressers, tired TV producers*, insurance salesmen, personnel officers, security guards, management consultants, telephone sanitizers and the like) were packed into the B-Ark, one of three giant Ark spaceships, and told that everyone else would follow shortly in the other two. The other two thirds of the population, of course, did not follow and "led full, rich and happy lives until they were all suddenly wiped out by a virulent disease contracted from a dirty telephone".

You forgot to mention that Earth was subsequently populated from the B arc...
I know. But the whole upsetting the computer program thing and the cavemen that didn't live in caves and the scrabble bit would take ages (2 whole books in fact) to explain.
Graphic designer, proper B ark material here...
Are software designers on the B Arc. I've never been clear on that point.

Corporate lawyer.
If I don't get into the B Ark, the no-one deserves to.

It depends, are you an arty farty kind of software designer who creates talking paperclips or more of a 'if this software doesn't work the plane falls out of the sky' kind of software designer?
Telemarketing here...Front row, seat A1...
Civil servant, I'll be serving refreshments during the cruise.
This is Stoner the Financial Analyst speaking. I shall be your captain for the duration of this cruise.....
Maybe it would be easier to ask who doesn't have a seat!
As an Engineer does that put me in the A arc or the C arc?
kind of depends what you engineer. I know lots of engineers who deserve seats on the B ark.
Physicist. Will probably be responsible for designing the B ark but will then get on it by accident.
"software doesn't work the plane falls out of the sky"
that sort of designer... is that good?
Yep, either get to stay at home or only get put on the B ark to make sure it lifts off safely. Collatoral Damage.
you don't get to stay home if you belong on the B ark, that's what happened to all the A ark and C ark passangers.
Im a tax consultant. Guess I'll be riding shotgun.
I guess the only hope for me is in propaganda, convincing the B ark folk that the planet really is at risk!
I used to be "stop plane falling out of the sky" software developer but got bored of it...
Whats a B Ark?
It's a Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy thing.
Its a shame. I thought turning round road signs was one of the only perks for kids living in Villages.
Except for kids living in the Norfolk village of Stiffkey, who spend their evenings with a pot of white paint, obliterating the K from their signs.

Working for a management consultancy (who claims to do I.T.)... I'll have a wing seat please...
but then I'm at risk of redundancy (and praying that I am) so hold that ticket!
Project Manager for a not-for-profit woodlands initiative.
I don't even get a seat, just a berth in the hold.
Please, Please, Please can we put the RBS directors on the B Ark?
I think we should, I just don't want them sat next to me!
Now that's a much more interesting debate = who should be on the B-Ark!
I'm a medical scientist, I can sail and a teacher out of my way and hand me the women that need saving... 😯
Just read the extract from Hitchhikers Guide....

I'm a BBC News Cameraman... I suspect I might be one of the first on
I have two careers... I am reasonably sure that one will land me a seat somewhere in the economy section, but the other I am not too sure about.
ChrisE, if you like that, try all 5 books from the trilogy. Think you might like them.
On this subject, I saw someone across the office from me cleaning the phones in their area today...
Atlaz, you just don't see that often enough anymore do you!
"On this subject, I saw someone across the office from me cleaning the phones in their area today."
But who writes the operating procedures for telephone cleaning?
