hmm, actually
Asian = a person born in asia, that could be black, white, red, yellow, infact any shade of human this world comes in.
i havent read this full thread yet, but it seems many people are quite willing to talk about the cost to NTL but refuse to admit that any company (with sensible restrictions such as fitters comeing to the door to install etc), might find far better production per worker, per hour if people are allowed display and within reason participate in the pride and excitment around the WC in working hours, many english people do assume that its a BRITISH thing rather than a english thing, after all many people switch to other british teams as others fall, whoever that might be.
theres far more to loose in production time/cost if your baned from participating british sports fun than any miniscule fleet wide fual costs, your average agreeved driver will hammer the van in response for instance.

Fair enough - however, my employers aren't doing anything either, but I just accept it  |
i dont know what the UK based call centers are laying on, but a while ago there was a (i think) a 'back to the floor' program all about how a CEO went to their outsourced call center in other country, and it appears that there, at least, the call centers lay on monthly 'fun days' with fancy dress and everything, including raffles for BIG TV's, fridges, motor bikes and evry concevable applience, purely to keep ,moral as high possible and keep their highly prized workers putting in the effort to increase company profits.
wonder if the UK will ever get a clue and see the benifits.
