    Yes Jan.
    It is good to know, just the same, that I am not the most put-upon man around. A friend of mine got into trouble with his better half by doing just what she asked of him...

    -"Dearest, you have a special birthday coming up, is there anything particular you would like to get as a present?"
    -"Oh well, I don't know...something with diamonds maybe?"

    And here he is on the 'happy' day itself, complaining to me.

    He had bought her a pack of playing cards.

    BTW
    I did presage my comments with mention of zero-hour contracts. Would there not have been a clear advantage in talking about 54,000 Part-Time jobs? (i.e. 20 hours or so)
    What if all the jobs turned out to be ZHC? Would it count as one job each time a person got up and served someone a coffee, only then to sit idle once more?
    It's acres and acres of a site, why not just be up-front about the 'real' employment prospects?
