It's meant to be "first assess".

Sounds like a nail-biting opportunity.... or maybe not...

More like a pillow-biting opportunity...

Happy

might not be a misprint

It could just be the usual macho talk used in the City - you know, like "C'mon Jones, we gotta fist some asses today or we're sunk!".

Seriously, I overheard a guy on his phone in a coffee shop once who actually said "...well, I don't want to get gang-raped on this one, you know?...". Because just 'raped' is too tame a metaphor for some people.

Sir

Don't you mean a grammar fail? Fist is a valid spelling after all :)

Or perhaps I should just reach for my coat.

About time too!

Perhaps this forms the first 'thrust' of the Wikileaks banking mega-leak?

Not long before wikileaks truth-rapes someone in banking, now

Fists, I mean thumbs up!

Someone got their job advert and their dating advert mixed-up didnt they! They'll be some random ad on some hook-up website asking for a well hung dominant solution architect - if he's not careful that terminology will spread and he's just invented some new sex slang!

I don't believe it...

The site has been "corrected", but the spelling is incorrect.

"first asses"

It's almost as funny :D

Anonymous Coward

site updated - still wong

clicking on the link provided takes you to see that the ad now says 'first asses'.

I think it should have said 'assist'.

By the way, when i clicked on the link I found I was logged in as someone else, So I logged him or her out.

Bloody shit!

I'll be buggered if I can remember the last time the happened.
