Perhaps this is childish of me, but I much prefer it when people speak their mind. Likewise, I will speak my mind. I try to brace people for it but I don't like being subtle or hinting. Is this going to get me in trouble?

I get the odd funny look for doing just this. I told my area manager his meeting was a waste of everyone's time last week. That didn't go down fantastically, but he shouldn't have asked if he didn't want an honest answer. Whilst there is normally little point in beating about the bush, there are times when a little diplomacy can help get your point across without just telling someone that they're a .

But he did ask! I suppose it's down to how mature the person is. If you have to pussyfoot around them because they might feel hurt then perhaps they shouldn't be in a managerial position! Tell him that. biggrin

I know I've said things that might imply I'm gay but even if it was a guy...

I'm not gay, though.

I'm a man's man. A manly man. I even do stuff like martial arts. And like cars. I'm not gay.

You guys believe me, right?

Snag is, I really do like the idea of an MX5 with teddy bear alloys. It makes me giggle like a girl.

To be fair, he is leaving soon, and I'm field based, so I only ever see him at pointless meetings in Leicester. And I live about 1hr 30 mins drive away. He's also a dopey looking git, so I'm not too fussed about annoying him. Although if nothing else it was worth it for the look on my team leaders face! hehe

Worrying prose from the man who had one of my favourite R32's frown

If you get teddy bear alloys, I'll be forced to prove that pirates are (arrrr) better than ninjas. An MX5 is forgiveable, just.

Maybe I'm man enough to take it. I mean the ridicule, not a hard pounding in the nether regions. biggrin

The MX5 is just a stop gap until I can afford my "dream car". The teddy bear alloys was just for personal amusement. My plan with the MX5 is to get forced induction of some sort and then use it as a trackday weapon. But that's further down the road.
