how could his family ever think lee is capable of getting a high flying city job???!
he probably hasnt done a desk job before, doesnt come across as the most intelligent type.

in my team at work, we have a small admin function. he'd be suitable for a £16k data entry job which is probably the lowest level job in the office.

I literally did an LOL when Whit asked if he had a p.a.

Coming from the army into a job with a p.a when he has no known credentials or training, the whole family is stupid.

Totally agree. He could've been sacked for it. He wasn't. Mind you I suppose the bully is the hilariously played 'wide-boy' co-worker.
Quite agree with that one, the colleague was the real problem.

I agree that the boss wasn't the problem. He was austere re the photo but he was just enforcing standard company policy.

Some would bridle at him checking up on Lee's social media but again that is quickly becoming routine and standard by employers. Considering Lee did lie and effectvely defraud the company out of a days pay (although I'm sure he won't have thought of it like that) he was fairly lenient with him.

It is the colleague that is intimidating him and the real problem as well as that type of workplace with the competition and rehjection pressure being wrong for any emotionally vulnerable person.

He's in the wrong job! with a bum like that, he would make a fantastic underwear or trouser model, and the dosh would be absolutely rolling in!

I can see Lee getting the sack. He doesn't have the right personality for that job. Anyway, he can do better than being a cold caller.

If you don't get leads you will get the sack so it's not a long-term job you can plan anything for really.. might do him a favour actually.
