That is one very savvy cat, training his servants from a young age.

  oh, it's still kicking around if needed  It's an electric one so might need a recharge
 

You're right about it not being required much lately because everyone here is just so well-behaved, just the odd spambot for me or Sunshine to ban     Most of what I find myself doing is thread management stuff, like moving a topic from one sub-board to another or taking out a duplicate post.   And you are spot-on about the Cafe - it is, after all, the 'official' off-topic part of the board, so let this thread go where it will, no worries!

I agree about the great resignation and younger people not wanting or being able to do the job. The disgusting thing about it is that the processes in place, the tick boxes and simplistic processes in place on work for a certain type of person and only the less empathetic can do it. The end result after the olders have resigned or retired means the the social workers left wont be like the social workers we had.


The same goes for Occupational Therapists, Physiotherapists and GPs.

They are not plotting, they have already taken over, this is the lecture at catademy on how to be super cute.

Yesssss!

Don't apologise for diverting the thread    I think it was me that diverted you!


Anyway, that's one of the things I love about OuchToo. The way our conversations wander and take on board the needs of the people participating in that conversation, just as it would in real life. Plus I posted this in the Cafe and I don't think it's quite as important for conversations to stay on thread as much as in other categories such as Talk or Welfare Rights.
I tend to view the Cafe as a less structured, more casual place to be, and we all respect each other here and understand our boundaries so hopefully nobody will overstep the mark. Or else they might have to contend with Kizzy and her flyswatter! (I wonder if Kizzy still has the flyswatter? It must be covered in cobwebs through inactivity these days)
