    Hmm.
    That would be a bit underhand.
    Specially as I've just sent Intel all my research notes.

    Don't worry though.
    I think that Mel knows which side her bread is buttered on.
    Unfortunately contracts take a while to sort out.
    I imagine the Intel lawyers are having to go through them.

    I've written my resignation letter for work.
    I'm a bit nervous about handing it in on Monday, but I'm sure everything will be OK.

    Thanks Mallet.

    PM most appreciated.

    I was just getting a bit jumpy.
    As I said, I emailed my boss to say I was working for Intel as of Monday and I don't know if I'm going to have to sell my house when I move out to the US.

    Thanks mate.
    I'm still waiting for Mel to get back to me.
    I guess it must be her weekend off or something.

    But the deal is as good as done.
    I don't know how long it will take my notes to get there in the post, but when they see them I'm made.
    I don't even think that Intel are aware of the number of ways there are of killing employees.

    Hi Mel.
    (sorry, you don't mind me calling you Mel do you?)

    I tried to call you on your mobile but I don't have your number.

    When you get into work tomorrow, is there any chance you can stop your bosses from Googling 'Intel killing employees?'

    Thanks, appreciate it.

    Talk soon.

    Hi Mel.

    Sorry I haven't been in touch sooner, but I don't have any of your contact details.

    Did you get my package with my notes in?
    It was quite big so maybe the guys in the post room didn't fancy carrying it all the way up to your office.
    I guess your office is pretty high up for someone with your responsibilities.

    Do you know where my office will be yet?
    I bet it won't be as high up as yours.
    It will probably be near the post room - or IN the post room LOL!
    Anyway, I don't mind starting at the bottom!

    Well, if you haven't had the parcel, maybe you could go and ask in the post room in case they are just being lazy. Do they have those hoover tubes there like in Elf? Not sure if it would fit in one of those.

    I was going to review your other game - the exploding one, but I'm still a bit worried.
    When I was at school our teacher used to say 'Kids, remember Tissier's first rule. Don't explode your computer.' His name was Mr Tissier so it could have been his rule, I'm not sure. I don't know if there were any others, because he only ever mentioned the first one.

    I Googled 'making explosions with a computer' and ended up on the Home Office website. Overall they seemed to be against the idea, so I've sent them an email explaining what we're trying to do.

    I don't want Intel to get into any trouble.
    I'll let you know what they say.

    Talk soon.

    Hi Mel.

    Sorry to be a pain.
    I've had an email from a bloke at the Home Office who I can only describe as exciteable.

    He wants to know what sort of explosions Intel is working on.
    I explained that I haven't been working with you for long and that I was really only brought on board to provide you with consultancy services with regard to killing employees.

    I said that I didn't think the projects were related.

    Anyway, he needs to talk to you.
    Can I give him your mobile number?

    Only I don't have it.

    Talk soon.

    Thanks all for your feedback - I am actually working on behalf of Intel and therefore will provide them with all feedback given on the game. Inside the game is actually a fun thing to try out and won't mess up your computer!!! Enjoy playing...

    Hi Mel.

    Phew. Good to hear your voice again if you know what I mean.
    We Intel lot need to stick together, and I think we make a pretty good team.
    Glad my feedback is proving useful.

    I'll pass your reassurance about the explosion thing on to the guy from the Home Office.
    Hopefully that will calm him down a bit.
    I'm starting to fear that things could get out of hand otherwise and as I said, I really don't want Intel to get into any trouble on my account.

    But at least I'm not in as big a fix as the people who live opposite me.
    The BT van has been outside his house all afternoon.
    His Broadband must really be borked! LOL.

    Anyway, I should be packed by the end of this week.
    If you can let me know which country I'll be travelling to, that would be really helpful as I may need to sort out jabs and/or a visa.

    Talk soon.

    There's usually plenty of hot air coming from management. Just open your favorite e-mail app. :twisted:

    That's a good one.
    Like in the Sims when they go for a swim and you remove the ladder from the pool.

    I'll run that past Intel when I get there.
    I bet they've got loads of cubicles.

    I wonder if I'll get one.
