Re: A certain poster!

I had the impression that Lee8 was working for a SF agent or was subcontracting for one ,but your right he does keep throwing in random things when the heat is on .
I am sending him a PM to invite him to the mtg ,I think others have done the same ,I don’t think for a moment that he will come but we will see…

Re: 0800 Repair

I guess when companies are middlemen, advertise their profits, the organisation supplying the work looks at its costs and decides it would be in its own financial interest to change its business portfolio, this is what happens when it does not go the way they wanted.

I could be wrong.

We’ll see.
I have pondered over this and I think I get it .
Repaircare make there profits known
DSG think hold on thats a lot ,and a lot of it is money from us .
They then look at ways to make it cheaper .
someone comes along promising a better deal for DSG and the merry go round starts again .

is that about it …

Maybe make it clear to everyone on the day discreetly, that obviously RC are going to be a hot topic, but try keep it to fact and questions, as opposed to rumour etc. Afterall, we don’t want other suits seeing us as a bunch of vicious grudge holding engineers! (Although true, that room wont be the place to display it ;))

If we can be nice / polite and respectful towards them, they will no doubt leave knowing we’re a serious bunch! That will be a good achievment 🙂

Also, them seeing RC agents in an enviroment NOT put together by RC, will make them realise the days of secrecy are long gone and the power of networking is more than they have previously respected!

I’m very happy they’re attending… I cannot wait for 24th September!

Ade 🙂
Agreed we need to host a proper reasonable debate about the merits of contract work ,if that happens to stray into RC territory so be it .
We should really avoid conversations in the evening after the suits have gone can shouldn’t we 😉

I am amazed that Bernard is coming it makes me think that they are taking it seriously ,they will also have a perception of the WTA being an extension of UKW and it all being Ken’s baby and it all being Kens agenda (Am I being unreasonable Ken ? )
So we need to be professional and also burst any bubbles on that score ,I will compere and keep the day rollling I will also do the WTA presentation with Ade doing his bit re the OFT ,that way when it gets to Bob it’s just another item on the agenda .

Re: sept 2010 meeting

I plan to do a presentation at the beginning of the day about the WTA so if you want to do it in that it would break up the monotony of my voice .
will be putting together some sort of agenda during this w/end if I get the chance
