Afriend of mine in VM who I keep in touch with just told me that Fugitsu have lost sooooo much money on the contract that they "bought" from Map and Kellys that they have already been back to the table to get an increase, (dont know if they got it!) and to make matters worse, the Japs back home have edcided that they no longer want to do this! they are goign to revert to business they understand, which is making teles. Apartently they have had to admit ti VM that they got it all wrong with their prices
dont know whats going on with the modems in Manchester, I'll ask my friend

Mr Ica, why do you think the use of contractors on BT is disgraceful? and why do you think it should stop? thats my job you are talking about! I love my job!!!!

Because in a few years it's likely my job will be under threat because of it. I can see the day when they get rid of all in-house engineers and go the all contractor route which scares the crap out of me!
Plus I feel the present contractors have been rushed out (possibly with not enough training) and themselves are being pressured from their management. The result of this is a LOT of faults created in the network and many mistakes being made.

I think its for vodafone, a new contract from within the BT contract. You will be replacing phone socket faceplates with Vodafone ones and then setting up modems.

Can you explain what you mean by replacing faceplates with Vodafone ones that makes no sense to me. Thanks.
