hi all

couldn't find anything specific to this, so thought I could ask here instead :)

a colleague of mine is given a company car as he is a field sales representative. On his way to a collection this morning, he squoze through a gap which it turns out he thought was bigger, and quite severely scraped all down one side of the car, which he's only had for about 6 months - it was all lovely and sparkly! It isn't the first time he's caused damage to his company car, so understandly the boss is a bit fed up of shelling out for it every time!! They can't let him drive around in it looking such a state as obviously it's what's seen by their customers.

Is there any way my boss could tell my colleague he has to pay for the damage?? I have to say, I'm on the side of my boss with this one, it doesn't seem fair they have to pay for his mistakes every time...they're only a small family run business.

TIA x

no I mean you were right, it's a totally made up word!!

It's on unwords.com and the urban dictionary - poor grammar for squeezed. There's even an ab thread dedicated to it :(
