I'm fed up with progress almost always being an issue and described as woke. I was employed as a manager in 1979, not as a manageress even back then. Call me woke or whatever other derogatory term you wish, but I'm fed up with all this woke business too.

I tend to agree with Bobbi. Argos putting 'person' jars with me, too. I always assume that in a generalised phrase like 'Two-man delivery' the word 'man' refers to a human being - gender unspecified. As in 'mankind'.
Fairly straightforward, so altering it is pandering to an over-sensitive minority i.m.o..

Absolutely right Jourdain! Would be the best answer for me.

Not over-sensitive, just actively looking for any opportunity to be offended on behalf of someone else.

It's tempting to replace the word 'woke' with 'ABers'.

Do you really think they are one and the same Bobbi??
No way!...unless there's some weird personality disorder there.

She hasn’t got a personality disorder, she’s just easily confused.
