Suggestion for your first morning.

Be nice and polite about it and say you hate to bring this up but that
the bonus situation has never been on an equitable basis.

Do you have poor social skills and poor dress sense? Are you bitterly
envious of people who earn more than you do? Do you regard anyone who
has lunch paid for by a business contact as a yuppie fat cat? Do you
long to drag everyone down to the same level?

If so, you will fit right in at the Inland Revenue.

Dont take anything too seriously. It's only a job - with cash at the
end of it to do all those things you wanna do.

Good luck, sweetie xx

Actually this job could revolutionise the way Mr. Lamb watches Alien.

Maybe there needs to be an additional commentary track on the next
version of the DVD: Inland Revenue Tax Inspector officious jobsworth's
perspective.

[Scene where they're sitting around drinking coffee] COVENANT: Is that
coffee provided free? If so it consititutes a taxable benefit in kind
under section 33 of the 1999 Employee Non Salary Benefits Act
subsection 32. There is a corresponding liability on Weyland Yutani to
pay NI contributions on the deemed value of said coffee.

[Scene where the alien emerges from Kane's chest] COVENANT: Is that
chestburster declaring Kane's chest as its principal private residence?
If so then a liability to capital gains tax arises under section 13
paragraph 19 of the Capital Gains on Private Dwellings Act 2001, save
for any taper relief applicable at the chestburster's marginal rate of
tax.
(etc)

and of course: RIPLEY: "...This is Warrant Officer Ripley, last
survivor of the Nostromo, signing off." COVENANT: Not quite I fear, my
initial interim assessment is that she has underpaid her liability by
$712 which is payable on demand upon arrival at the outer rim.

So how was your first week at work? Are you making lots of nice friends

Weeellll...

It wouldn't be TOO prudent to say that some of the people *in traning* with
me are WAY too young (whipersnappers!!!) to be doing what I can see being
quite s tressful job at times, dealing with ANYTHING life can throw at the
public...

beyond that?
It's okay!

Thanks for asking!
