Since when did a customer services adviser become an advocate?

Perhaps you were?
Or someone glugging a beaker of Advocaat?
My father used to love what he referred to as boozy custard.

Argos Avocado Advocate this made me laugh. Having only this morning sat and waited & waited & waited at the end of a telephone queue I can sympathise.

I saw a job at Asda advertised as a Petrol Colleague!!

Oh Merlotgran - I have been feeling sorry for myself this week - went down with a nasty norovirus amongst other things- and your post has just made me laugh so much that my coffee went up my nose!! Brilliant! But one does wonder who dreams up these grandiose expressions - must be a jobsworth. At least your call was answered though. House of Fraser are not answering any calls or e-mails, and at the moment it seems as though the parcel I returned 2 weeks ago ( a very crushed ill fitting sale dress that I foolishly sent for) will not get me a refund of £65.
So far all my e-mails have been ignored too. I feel sorry for anyone who has alot more invested.

Oh dear when did everything get so pretentious, love the thought of talking to an avocado Merlotgran

What on earth is a petrol colleague Mumofmadboys ? Do these people realise how ridiculous they sound.

My horrible SiL’s daughter in now apparently working as a barrister - at Costa!

Grankind it was your post about snorting your coffee that reminded me ???

waste management and disposal technician?
This could be an interesting thread..

'Co-ordinator of interpretive teaching' anyone?

That made me laugh as my H who has dementia went in Costa with my SiL to help carry the coffee and came out having asked the young man which uni he was at
His badge said trainee barista and my H presumed he was doing a holiday job from his law course.

Feeling thick, here, Marmight, can’t get the ‘ co-ordinator of interpretive teaching’ one. Will probably kick myself when you tell me.

Perhaps if you enrol for this course at Exeter University, Nandalot, you may find out:
Interpretive Methodologies in Educational Research

You could become an Interpretive Methodologist in Education Research and become a Co-ordinator as well!

Educational - sorry
I need edjukating

Oh heavens, are we still allowed to call a spade a spade?

I think you'll need a glass or two of Maw's Aardvark to understand it.

An outdoor activity centre in the Lakes is called A centre for experiential learning!!!!

I'll go further toscalily and call it a bloody shovel if only to counteract the pretentiousness.

Do people think these ridiculous titles make them sound more impotent important.

I love avocado but can't seem to buy it outside of the Christmas period!

Museum Guide Nandalot !!

I had cause recently to call the non emergency police line to be told that a customer service advisor would be with me shortly. I didn’t really see myself as a customer as I wasn’t buying anything-more a member of the public.

Thank you, Marmight. I would never have got that. But then I am not very good at cryptic crosswords either!
