And Misplaced upper Case letters? Drives me bonkers. I had a stand-up row with a chief inspector on Monday because I took away some of his guerilla comms material because of random upper case letters sprinkled over it. And it was off brand. And in the wrong place. |

Shouting at chief inspectors is kind of a hobby though, yes? Poor buggers. It's said most officers get 'stuck' at one rank at some point. That is *absolutely* the one rank to avoid getting stuck on. All downside, no upside, and you get bullied by mid-ranking civvies who want to take their frustrations out on someone. |

You have a point (but I’m not mid-ranking). This cop was quite naughty a few years back, he’s lucky to still be here and everyone knows it.

For a moment I imagined a hideous alternate world where Captain Kirk was played by Will.I.Am

I did punctuate it that way, then decided Chief Inspector Kirk was worrying enough an image as it was and changed it.

Love the use of 'vigilante' instead of 'vigilant'.

Indeed - we were wondering if we'd be provided with baseball bats😊

[some of you might have seen this on twitter, in which case apologies - and whilst this isn't the ideal thread I'm not sure where else to post it] A woodentop in the office next to mine came in lunchtime and declared "chocolate covered shortbread biscuits are the oracle". |
