Doesn't seem to do the models any harm either. Good luck with your recruiting. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is only in the last few years we have started to slip down the list as the number of coffee drinkers grows.

The Ghost of IKB Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Though i have to begrudgingly admit to having absolutely none of the skills or knowledge required for this post whatsoever, i would like to apply for the position of general nuisance/hanger on. Think of Bez' contribution to the happy mondays and youll get the drift. Basically i would get under peoples feet, be critical that not enough models start with the number 40, eat the last biscuit - but fervently deny it and demonstrate an annoying whistling noise that all proper diesels should make, especially when their number begins with a four and a zero, all whilst doing a weird stamping on the spot dance and playing the marraccas wildly to no specific beat. Other benefits are that i am prepared to work for food and the occassional wagon and my wife tells me she is happy for me to relocate, preferably she says to your office in south america. I am a very driven (to eat the last biscuit) and passionate (about marraccas) individual that would be an asset to any team. I look forward to your reply. Yours faithfully The G of IKB. PS would i be entitled to a fresh pair of company marraccas if successful? 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think of Bez' contribution to the happy mondays and youll get the drift. When I was at uni Bez used to hang around two pubs outside the campus of Salford uni (one of those pubs reputedly had the mondays drum kit hanging upside down from the ceiling), any way Bez would come up to Students and simply say “hi i’mmmm beeeez will you buy mi a DRink”.. Funny thing was by the early 90’s some of the students would say “your who ?” Edited May 7, 2021 by adb968008 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steadfast Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 Graphics Engineer sounds very interesting and I have Illustrator on my traction card - unfortunately the day job playing with the big railway takes up a bit too much of my time!

mdvle Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 1 hour ago, newbryford said: I know a guy called Dave that may be a bit handy as a product manager........... So, yes, I get the reference. But, that really is the wrong approach. What you want to do is think strategically - find someone who wants the same models you want, and get them hired (a "trojan loco" of sorts) so that they can influence things from inside Accurascale instead of the usual forum posts asking for X...
