I'll leave it to the anti British to find the cloud in this silver lining.

for some reason i thought he was retired, like any number of bods on here, well if his employers don't mind?

To go back to the original post by TTT - there's nothing "anti-British" about viewing Amazon as a greedy, tax-avoiding company. I think TTT has got his knickers in more than a twist - on back to front in my opinion.

Amazon has announced that it will create more than 10,000 new permanent jobs in 2021, taking its total UK workforce to more than 55,000 people by the end of year. Amazon also announced that it will invest £10 million over three years to train up to 5,000 employees in new skills and support the Government’s investment programme. This training will be offered through Amazon’s Career Choice programme, where the company pays course fees for its employees who have expressed an interest in pursuing a career outside of the company – something that will boost the skills and employability of British workers.

//Does anyone else wonder how TTT gets any work done?//

No, not really. From previous posts I believe TTT is emplyed in IT like I was. Generally in IT you are paid to do the job, that can include being 'in' at all hours of the day. It is not a 9:00 to 17:00 job for most people.

Not that I would expect you to understand that.
