Evidently the last 4 years of the Gorse Fox's life have been a figment of his imagination. An article in the company house magazine extols the great work performed on his last major project, and thoughtfully lists the key personnel - the partner who came in for occasional meetings, the project exec who did more to sour relations with the client and the team than anyone, the project manager (deserved), and the apps manager (deserved).
Now examination of the Gorse Fox's time recording shows that in 2004 he managed to spend 39 days just commuting to said project, where he (apparently) spent 142 days twiddling his thumbs... he won't bother checking 2003, 2002, or 2001**. It would be too depressing... remembering those 100+ hours a week, and those interminable commutes.
Ooooh yes... and the GF also received an email over the weekend asking if he'd go back in to help them with some design changes. Now I wonder what his reply will be?
**[Ok, then. He did check. 830 days of effort, and the equivalent 114 full days of travelling.
Note, the travel time was only counted for the last 18 months... and 2 hours a day were ignored as being reasonable commute times].
