    Why someone would fax back a copy of an e-mail that they've printed out.

    Why fax is still a thing in general?

    "Hi, I need to send you a copy of a contract, can I scan it and email it to you?"
    "No, you need to fax it, we can't accept contract copies by email."
    "OK, by the way, I know what tomorrow's Euromillions numbers are, can I scan them and email them to you?"
    "Oh, yes please"
    Dicks.
    HMRC don't "do" emails. Fax is the nearest thing to instant written communication you can get it seems.

    What confuses the hell out of me is how someone can go into an office toilet and think it is OK to do one or a combination of the following:

    - piss on the seat
    - piss on the floor
    - piss on the uplifted toilet seat cover so the piss sprays onto the walls and cistern
    - shit all over the bowl
    - block the toilet with at least 5 metres of bog roll
    - not bother to flush

    I'll be honest - most people in my office needed a degree to work here, or are working to get a degree. What the hell is wrong with people.

    And I've heard the ladies are even worse...every 6 months the ladies get a bollocking from the office manager for it...apparently someone managed to leave shit outside of a cubicle...fair play, never seen that in the gents.

    When I worked at HSBC at Canary Wharf and at The Home Office, both places where plenty of people have degrees, the Khazis were a disgrace, again you would think with the amount of 'educated' people there it would be better.
    I guess there is a massive difference between education and intelligence.

    The ladies have always had more emails, warnings etc about the 'condition of the toilets' everywhere I've worked.

    You think that there'd be less scope for them to get it wrong.

    I once worked somewhere that had a "phantom crapper". Suspected it was a bloke but often struck in the ladies. Surely the phantom couldn't have been a "she"?!

    Was that their official "job" title?

    We've got some beast called 'the fresian' that works with me. He's not the phantom as we all know it's him. He has his own toilet now because of the pats he makes. Even without any bog roll he blocks flushing toilets and he utterly devastates DAVLAV's

    Where is the Labservative or the Conserbour party that is right down the middle of these two.

    To be fair it's a pretty fundamental part of trigonometry, which makes up quite a bit of GCSE level mathematics.

    I can see where this is going

    No, you probably won't use trigonometric equations in the real world, anymore than you'll need to know the periodic table.

    It proves to the teacher who is the Lord commander of your future, that you have the capacity to learn and to what level. A bit like a filter to stop dustmen becoming nuclear scientists by accident

    Or, alternatively, people not voting to kick the Tories out.

    If you just buy ten pairs of black socks it's not an issue.
