    I hate to have to agree with Dev, but he is correct in this instance, in fact, if anything I would say he is understating the wages.

    P.S. Don't get used to me agreeing with you, Dev, you horrible **** <ok>

    10k a month sounds great but **** knows who would be covering your back, could be a Yank or some Frog.

    I never doubted that money was available, I just doubted whether they'd offer it to some angry thick midget with delusions of grandeur <ok>

    What would you know, you've never served in the military son never mind an "Elite" unit like what I done did.

    Best you could hope for is the Salvation Army and even then I doubt some unfit IT chimp could pass the fitness exam.

    Is it as hard as the tests to get into the army? I reckon I'd boss the pizza slice question <cool>

    PS: 'Elite' <rofl> <rofl>

    I suspect you would be sufficiently intelligent were there such a question, but I doubt there is (or ever was) a question regarding pizza slices.

    Besides, you have to be physically fit and as demanding as it is being an IT worker sitting on your arse every day, I doubt you would have made it past the recruitment office. You'd probably get tired opening the door.

    Isn't Dev in his late 50s ?
    Surely the shipping company would recruit young capable ex SAS types as mercenaries?

    Not ex coppers that haven't seen a pair of army boots in 20 odd years .

    You know there was a question regarding pizza slices, you're just choosing to ignore it.

    I doubt it'd be too hard to get fit enough to pass the army test, I wouldn't want to though as I'm not absolutely thick-as-****, I can hold a real job.

    Each to their own though <ok>

    I recall there was an "Example" test re Pizza slices. You do know what an "example" is don't you brain of Britain? It would be a tad pointless giving away test questions on a website, kind defeats the purpose of having tests.

    People use questions from previous tests as 'Example' questions.

    Do you think they use the same test every year, Mr 'I was in the army so I'm smart' Dev?

    I don't recall ever claiming being in the Army means I'm smart.

    I am smarter than you though so maybe you have a point for once. <ok>

    The sad thing for you is you know it, that's why you have a hard on for me.

    Incidentally, I'm not just smarter, I'm better in every way.
