@bazzacollins what's 'leave', annual or otherwise? #needabreak
Why do people say they're on "annual leave" in Out Of Office messages? They're not teachers: they don't go at the same time every year.

@Rookmeister Which part of the world are you in this week? -
@bazzacollins Hamburg. Cracking curried bratwurst for lunch and I've taken a shine to large glasses of Weissbier -
@Rookmeister Tuck in. Back for Sutton on Sat? -
@bazzacollins all roads lead to Mountfield. Will be there - End of conversation

@bazzacollins As opposed to maternity leave/sick leave? -
@Bohemiangirl Wouldn't "holiday" suffice? -
@bazzacollins I'm amazed too at the "I've left the university (etc.) p[lease contact...x" instead of "Go to hell" or something like that -
@Bohemiangirl I've seen a few good 'uns. Best bounced back an attachment with the company's internal client list, after he'd been laid off.

@bazzacollins wrong side of the bed? -
@MsEmmaChaplin You perhaps wrongly assume my bed has a right side -
@bazzacollins I quite enjoy your grumpy old Hector persona. But it's most frequently seen in the morning. -
@MsEmmaChaplin Strange that:)

@bazzacollins Because it comes from annual allowance, as opposed to lieu days which don’t necessarily have a predictable quota? -
@ajclarkin You're a civil servant, aren't you? :)

@bazzacollins That's a real bugbear of mine. It's not 'annual leave' it's just 'leave', or 'time off', or 'holidays'.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
