Re: Test Tube Quality
Yes he's lovely. I get on really well with him. He was given to us by the Manson school for wild children after a long career in racing and was used as our school mascot until an unfortunant incident/accident with another school's mascot (a silky chicken). Maybe he does need a holiday. I'll ask him.

He is isn't he and he's had no work done either! Some say he could be the next Bond.

Re: Test Tube Quality
Yes, well the upshot of all this is a certain person in the office (for reasons best known to themselves) has been removed from placing orders on behalf of the school. They allowed their personal feelings to get in the way of how they performed and that's not on. I made light of the situation, but in truth it annoyed the life out of me, especially when there is a problem with the ordered items as there was in this case. I try and be fair with my staff here, some I don't really see eye to eye with but I they would never know that, their not treated any differently. Brian on the other hand is openly disliked by students and staff but I think that's what endears me to him. I found out yesterday walking to the Fish farm across the ovals that even the nesting plovers leave you alone if you have a certain goat with you!

Re: Test Tube Quality
Hi Richard,
Maybe you could give the Office lady a broom and tell her to use it if she ever has car troubles!
I had trouble with QStores with glass tubing, nicely wrapped in cardboad in about lengths of 1.8m or at least it was probably that length when it left Sydney. I had two attempts at getting delivery and gave up in the end they both turned up in the same condition. I couldn't even cut the tubing into decent lengths, I found the glass was really brittle as well. QStores at least didn't want it back after I told them it was too dangerous. I don't think they even had a fragile sticker on it to warn the couriers. I haven't found an alternative supplier as yet.
I was shattered

Richard,
I was pleased to read that outcome. I treat my co-workers the same as you, and it is not fair when others do not act in a professional manner, simply because they do not like you. Good for you, and my regards to Brian. I think he should become the Chemtalk mascot!!!
Cheers,
Lisa

Re: Test Tube Quality
Ha! Not a bad idea. I'll see if he fits into one of my labcoats and I'll get a picture quickly of him before he starts to eat it!
