To carry on with my diatribe...

And now the Bad & the Ugly, they're hard to tell apart:

Geekboy. Our regular stopgap guide. Which means he comes in whenever we're a man down. Far too often. Probably quite intelligent but has the social skills of a naked mole rat. Which makes him perfect customer service of course... Has no sense of humour but thinks he does - his ideas of funny are limited to trying to be clever (and failing, which on another level I guess does make him funny...).

Thicko. Our 'head' guide, strangely enough. Strange coz there doesn't seem to be much in his head. But not a bad guy really. I'm doing him a disservice putting him in this category really. He's nice enough in an annoyingly thick-as-pig-shit way. And loud. And also has no social skills. Sigh...

The preening one... Well, at the risk of sounding like a stuck record - once again very few in the way of social skills. No, on reflection I think he does have them he just choses not to use them. For some reason he doesn't seem to think that communicating with people is at all an important thing in his job. Which either makes him a surly dickhead or a moron. I've yet to decide which. Probably both. He has great hair though, of which he is obviously very proud. Plus he's a sleazoid. The only time he will actually expend some energy interacting with the public is if that particular public happens to be in the form of a hot babe. Preferably blonde.

God this is depressing. I'm glad I don't have very much to do with many of these adverts for euthanasia...
