If Traffic lights didn't change we would be in trouble...

 -  like that.

But it does occur and In my experience traffic still moves, we just become more cautious at junctions and in some cases a shade more courteous.

I don't like change.

 

I like things done MY WAY and don't like when people change things on my laptop etc.

 

When the forum or facebook etc changes things it takes me a while to like them.  

 

Dunno.

 

Older I get I want Status Quo.

 

Ain't happening though.

Got a letter from the bank this morning that one of the £20 I paid in was fake

 

I obviously didn't spot it - neither did the member of staff who took it - never mind - must remind Mr Woo to tell them all to be vigilant.

 

So, "What You're Proposing" is that the rate of change is much slower than it is at the moment?

 

You see what I did there?

Woulda gone a long way to a VIP.

Well Ells, that is something which can be remedied.

No.

 

Not without an exchange about particle physics.

 

Trap question eh?

Such a value laden word. In the days when one worked for others, change was used as a euphemism to describe potential modern working practices introduced at our disadvantage. I loved trade unionism, me.

 

it's quite interesting to see what the first thing is that comes to peoples minds.

Hold the front page.

change or is it evolution?

Definitely change. We can leave evolution for another thread

Down down, deeper and down 

Nah, a dain't like change eitha. (Spoken in a Geordie accent) 

 

The only thing I can say in a convincing Geordie accent is "the photocopier needs new paper". I've been told it is very good.

LOL! 

 

It's funny when the printers or copier go off in the office I normally say it needs it's nappy changing 

A fail for EC then.

 

That was the horses mouth.

Well don't just sit there!  Tell me how!

 

(spoken in whatever accent you read in)

I'm hearing mild Devon.

Oooh I don't even know what a Devon accent sounds like VD  Is it farmer-ish?

Who from? 

Avvie wise ...very

Presuming you are on Windows 7 (if not ignore this )

 

Make sure you are the administrator, change the password (don't tell anyone what it is), then create an user for each person and restrict what they can do using parental rights. You can set it to deny them access to anything, then add applications one by one.

 

Start with a bit of reading. http://windows.about.com/od/se...ss/PrntlCtrl_all.htm

 

I have a better link at work, will need to email home.

Thats one thread I stay away from Sprout

Awww 

I am going to change

 

 

 

into my nightie 

Thanks EC, the kids have their own user accounts on Dad's laptop but they usually aren't allowed on mine but when do kids ever listen?  

Plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose [the more things change, the more they stay the same].

One of my teachers once said that... he was right 

I think he meant things appear to change, but we just go back to the same old...

eg financial bubbles happen over and over.

Hope you weren't charged by the bank Soozy. If it convinced the cashier then how could you have known?

aww why?

Change is a nuisance which cannot be avoided.

 

Where I work one of the things we are reviewed on is "openness to change". I do feel at times that it can be a stick to be us with as if you don't necessarily agree with the change you are seen as being unwilling to change or not progressive.

 

My response is usually this "I am quite open to change, but it has to be the right change". I have seen too many changes in my working like which turned out to be a backward step. Usually instigated by a "new broom" wanting to make a mark!
