Progres, of a sort...

I'm filling in a UK application form for a job, and have to fill in my gender. I can choose transgender, if I choose to do so.

Then again, I also have to fill in my sexual orientation. Not that it's relevant in my case, but where's that sliding scale.

And all this for a job for a charity ... Comic Relief in this case.

Ah well. One step forward, one step back... I imagine it'd be better if I didn't need to fill any of this at all!

I suspect all the questions are so HR minion can produce stats to tell the world what a nice diverse non predjudice company they are. Soon, we'll all be asked how many sexual partners we've had so they can produce reports that say 45% of our senior team are women, 39% of our workforce are from an Ethnic minority, 25% have a disability. We also have 7 lesbians, a mute, a she male and 76 complete slappers amongst our numbers!

Do you have the phone numbers of the slappers? ;)

Well you could have mine!!!

Methinks Andy's already warned you about me in another comment on a later post... ;)

[identity profile] travelsintown.livejournal.com 2009-09-24 07:29 pm (UTC)(link)
You mean he hasn't warned you about me?!

OK, *now* you're sounding interesting :-p

[identity profile] travelsintown.livejournal.com 2009-09-24 07:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I'm fascinating and an incorrigible flirt.

[identity profile] madmosh-uk.livejournal.com 2009-09-24 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
*snap* Well, feel free to post your phone number on here and I'll get in touch...

[identity profile] travelsintown.livejournal.com 2009-09-24 07:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh you'll have to work harder than that to get a number out of me!

[identity profile] madmosh-uk.livejournal.com 2009-09-24 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)
No worries. I'll just ask Andy for it ;)

Then come begging again when he tells me to sod off.

I'm just wondering when he's going to realise we've hijacked his blog!

Andy doesn't have it! If you ask me nicely privately I might give you my email address though.

[identity profile] madmosh-uk.livejournal.com 2009-09-24 08:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Hum. But asking you privately involves *having* the email address to ask you privately via... Unless there's some mechanism on LJ of which I am not privy.

Dude, try and set me up with people who aren't on the other side of the nation! :-p

I get so hacked off having to fill things like this out.

Good for you, though! :D

Sexual orientation? Have fun with it! Fill in "abstinence" and just smile from a distance. :D
