Tom Mursell Joins the Boffer and Bigoffers team.

When we first set up the Boffer website the banks thought it was such a crap idea that they refused to loan us money! So we had to go to a venture capitalist to borrow the money to set up the business. The VC’s name is Shaf Rasul and he also happens to be A Dragon on the Dragons Den. He called us a couple of weeks ago and asked if he could second his new apprentice to us. His apprentices name is Tom Mursell and Tom is going to be helping Running Bigoffers and Boffer. Any way here is a little bit of background about Tom and how he managed to get involved with Boffer and Bigoffers. Clicky... or Watch the Video Clicky...


I thought i would start this thread so we can say hello to Tom and show how what a nice bunch of people we are at boffer.

Welcome Tom

It seems that everyone has a suggestion for you Tom, so here`s mine, I hope it helps.

The new warehouse system is set to be configured as a perfect system with no shipping errors, zero tollerance perameters, giving the whingers nothing to whinge about. This gives rise to a massive problem in our mainstream Boffer fraternity in that,none-whingers will not have the chance to let off steam whinging at the whingers(permitted under the non-whinging charter of 1059(just before closing time)) thus negating the need to post for anyone & destroying the very heart of our great community. Please could you see fit to make a solemn declaration to allow some errors & exceptions to leave the wharehouse in the spirit of this great community.

Best Wishes
Mark

Welcome Tom to the world of Boffering. Looking forward to seeing what innovative ideas you are able to input here, though I have to say on the whole it runs pretty smoothly, well obviously apart from the fact I am still waiting for a TV, scooter or new car in my bag of crap... darn it i shouldn`t have said anything, now i won`t get one in case it looks like a fix. poop

Oh well hello anyway.

Welcome Tom,

Hope you have a great time with us crazy bofferers. One thing - try and sort city link out - they really let you down from time to time!! I`m sure others would agree??

All the best from Hull.
