Today's Clash With Petty Authority...

Three points to make.

"Jobsworth" was, if not devised by esther Ranzen, at least popularised by her. It is a term, accordingly to avoid.

Mr****** was probably known as "six-star" by his mates which is not a bad term of endearment.

As a graduate of UCL I am tempted to return my degree certificate in protest at this absurb behaviour. Sadly my wife binned it years ago with just about everything I owned pre-marriage.

You didn't 'grauate' in English then I take it, Clive?

Look more closely--the cad and bounder amusingly missed 'absurb'. He'll edit that one too in a minute, no doubt. ;)
