Benefits package

It was almost too good to be true. I responded to a query from a new joiner in my team about him taking some personal leave by suggesting he take it out of his annual holiday entitlement and was utterly amazed when he said, and I quote, "Holiday entitlement? We have that?"!

There was, I admit, an instant where I thought about saying that it was my mistake and we only give holiday to those who had been with us for more than a year, but I fear I would have eventually been exposed as a bit of a liar! Innocence and naievety are alive and well and living in London!

Note to self - pick the moment to tell him that he can have Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year's Day off too. He will think I'm a great boss!
