Anyone been tuped?

[Corky]

Has anyone been tuped over to BSF yet? Interested to see what these technicians would be allowed / not allowed to do. A Job description would be good.

I expect not a lot apart from change toner.

I was gonna say I could ask my friend who works at a school in Burnley...

what school are you at?

[StewartKnight]

I got tuped when I was in the civil service.
for "tuped" read "royally screwed over"
but I'm sure this wont be the case with BSF obviously!

'Tuped' - sounds too much like prostitution to me. In fact - I've coined a new word:

Prostituption - the act of being sold into IT slavery against your will...

[MK-2]

so does that make us all prosti-tupes?

It does if you've been tuped!
Or duped!

Tuped in a foundation secondary over a year ago. Didn't see much difference, but it did protect us from the massive pay cuts we would have taken that were imposed by the LA Job Evaluation.

And do you know what you can / Cannot do within your Job?

What happens about vandalism..... if Mice and Keyboards have to be replaced..... what is the procedure ?

And what happened to the Network Manager ?

[ngreenwood]

If mice and keyboards are vandalized they are replaced. Simple really.

As for can/cannot do. I work alongside a tuped technician and we have the same roles and job desc even though I am a fully fledged RM technician. The only limitations you may have is where lack of RM qualifications may prevent you from fixing certain hardware. Although a three day course fixes this.

I may be being ignorant here as I know nothing of RM systems, so I apologise if I sound stupid, but what hardware requires you to have an RM qualification?
