... more or less sums it up. A whole lot more posts like it were deleted by the DS forum staff at the time. I'm sure you remember.
I vaguely recall the thread that you refer to, but it is nearly two years old! I personally wouldn't have the time or inclination to go digging up the historical posts of others. I have no recollection of any deleted posts

Are you always so suspicious?

I'm just curious as you are inviting comments from employees of Virgin that could result in disciplinary action. From my point of view it almost looks like you are trying to cause trouble, but of course I could be wrong.

The point is simple really. A lot of VM staff seem to be very interested in both what the company is doing and what products/services they offer, for example, in their free time they happily have a "busmans holiday" chatting about VM and offering advice etc.

A comparison can be made about those who work on the railways. To some it's just a job to pay the mortgage, yet to others it is a joy to go to work to indulge in their favourite hobby.

I am just wondering if this is representative of staff in general, or if i'm wrong and it's forums such as these that make it appear so.

I see no reason for disciplinary action if one simply says that their job is more than just a job to them or not!

@ sirius (or anyone else), what did you think of the survey? Eg was it easy to understand, did it allow you to express your opinion, too long, too short??

For the record I am not asking what you think of your employer, but your job. To be fair the thread title could have been worded better

Best to say to the thread and leave it at that
I am in no way disgruntled with VM. In fact, I have just renewed one of our business broadband/phone contracts.

I have no comment to make about your last puerile statement, but can infer from it that we won't be seeing you in this thread again.
