Tell me about it ...

I have just come off the phone having had a conversation with some cloth-headed Hooray Henrietta who appears to think that "rules is rules".   I'm reserving a meeting room plus catering at a conference centre.  One particular room (the one I'm reserving - only one available that day) has space for a large number of delegates.  We have a small number of delegates.  Wait for this and pay attention: a sandwich lunch is not available in this room  (only a hot or cold buffet) BECAUSE the room holds a large number of delegates and it's a lot of work making sandwiches for a large number.  But we DON'T have a large number of delegates.  It's not our fault that this room is the only one available. And NO, they can't "bend the rules" and provide a sandwich lunch (which is all that is required) for a small number of delegates.

Maybe, in this recession, some of these people will finally lose their jobs!  They jolly well should.
