On phones, I worked in one project for 9 years, was the building go to person and Project Business and Contract Manager, and as I lived close by, my phone number was the one all emergency, cleaners, security, Police, contractors, and workers used to contact Defence with anything to do with the building. The security alarm was always going off, and the building was up to Secret, so it had to be attended if the alarm went off. Another reason why I looked after it because I was the closest. Anyway, when I left the Project they wanted the phone and the phone number handed over, well it was my phone and my phone number so I had to tell them to bugger off, go change everything, all the building related documents and emergency plans, your not getting my number. They had never realised that the number was mine, and me being a minion compared to some of the high ranking twats that worked there, I was not deemed suitably ranked to be given a work phone, only for "special" people.
Was very satisfying after years of battling to get a work phone, to tell them to puck off!
