    Because of the grubby students that responded...its because they are all under the illusion that "University" is a bit like "Work", and as such they are doing "Work Experience" for 3 years...bless 'em

    Either that, or it may have started as a bit of Wozza bashing...can't tell for sure now, we are too far gone!

    I've not yet said anything useful, but feel free to give me +Rep anyway

    Dear Older Folk,

    Please stop telling us about how things were back in the day, a lot has changed since WW2 and your old stories are no longer relevant

    Yours sincerely,
    Wozza

    I saw through my package tracking that the pickup point was Leeds. Does that mean PCS is located somewhere around there? I'm moving to Bradford soon to study, I'd totally work weekends in Leeds. lol Also, I live in Northern Ireland at the minute which is to the North from Leeds, but the package went to Birmingham which is South. >_>

    its just the way DPD (the delivery service PCS use) operates. packages get taken to a depot in leeds, then go to the main hub in birmingham, then off to the local depot (eg: it was the Exeter depot for me) to await dispatch in the morning.

    That's until you get rig envy... as newer and cooler stuff comes online, how hard would it be putting them together and shipping them out, knowing you can't play on them yourself

    Well, except if he was just working on weekends anyways, when only the customer services section is open, he wouldn't be building/testing PC's at any rate, he'd be answering the phones

    Yeah done plenty of phone answering at my last job. The only difference was that I wasn't customer support, I was the control centre for the field teams. Sort of like second level management.
