From the Reg link in April 2004 ""This process has only just begun, it will be at least three months until a final decision is made."

If that's how good the project management of senior staff is they should be replaced by Czech citizens as well (or be on Czech wages).

<<European countries where jobs will be lost are: Austria; Belgium; ***Czech Republic***;>> HUH???

I should work for UPS. They're probably next.

At least, with UPS you get a free Ubuntu-coloured shirt 'n' trousers*. Saves changing when you've had a near-miss. DHL has a different uniform, IIRC.

*(See the new Ubuntu 8.10 background to put you off yer brekkie. It looks like both the BOFH and PFY pebble-dashed the same shitter after Friday lunchtime's Curry 'n' Guinness spasm without flushing)

So far, so bad #

Previous projects sent to CZ have ignominiously returned, claims that they could deal with the work are now taken with a large pinch of sodium chloride. Except by senior managers, who seem to have an enlarged gullibility gland.
