Haha, what industry are you in?
There's a consultant coming to my uni in a few weeks who was successfully bribed with free coffee and the promise that he could rant as much as he liked at the undergrads.

It's usually the wives who kick off about conference venues.

I hate to say it makes sense but... yeah, it makes sense. :P

Not worth a thread but a Professor* demanded ** of me when timetabling
that I schedule any teaching time at 10:00 or after.

Why? Because his free bus pass was only eligible from 09:00. Regardless of that, if it was that every instance of student contact with him was at 9am, it would have resulted in 20 days a year. Roughly £32 on the bus (presuming he uses the free pass to return).

Didn't see that tool protesting the fees hike.

*I include title only to suggest basic salary.
**Proud to say I endeavored to make sure he taught at 9am.***
***Needless to say...
