The woman who trained me in Avaya earns enough to be able to go travelling in the US 6 months of the year. She's done it every year for the last 10 years and they keep an RV in Florida when they're not there. Just finished the last of her emails and the story that stuck in my mind was trying the get the RV up a hill in Utah. They set off at 3.30pm & it was really hot. After 10 miles the truck had over heated so many times they decided to turn back and get a new filter for the truck. They stayed over night and tried again the next morning. They get up to the top of the hill successfully. Oh did I say hill? The up climb on this hill was 36 miles and 9600ft!!

:shock: :shock: :shock:

One assumes she works for Avaya themselves? Why are we not all applying for jobs there? JJ ought to be a shoe-in. I wasn't so bad myself back in the day...

Nope she doesn't work for anyone. Self employed consultant. Hence 6 months out of the country every year. In fact she doesn't need to work and keeps giving up training only to be asked back again as she's so well know in the business.

What rocks - The missus is talking to me again. I've still no Idea what was wrong.
What also rocks - She didn't see Caz's FB post before I deleted it.
What sucks - Now she's upset at the helicopter situation

(Caz, not a word on Facebook tonight, okay ;) :lol: )

For those that aren't on FB, we had a situation yesterday where one of the helideck crew notitced some damage on the chopper just before it took off. The pilot missed it on his pre flight checks. The horizontal stabiliser looked as though it was about to fall off. There's a very good chance it would have crashed on the way back to Aberdeen. It's still sat on deck now.

I'm still wanting to know what was wrong in the first place, but sounds like it'll remain a mystery!

Obviously none of my business, but you know... ;)

with all due respect, this. There are some wonderful women around, but there are also women who think this kind of thing is acceptable. It isn't. If you married someone, you took a vow to support each other and be honest and open with each other. The whole 'silent treatment' stuff is just selfish and wrong. OK, she might be upset because of something he did ( I'm talking generic case here rather than Lev specifically) but since when do two wrongs make a right?
