Doesn't this mean we finished in third place?
Who the f*ck won the poxy gold?

And if it is a programme of continuous improvement - what happens after you've got the gold?

The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

If glasgow gets to stay open for the sake of letting the world class mail picture drawers run riot then I say who cares!!
I love watching the innovative ways the wcm boffins are spending their paid time!!
I must admit Glasgow Mail Center has some of the brightest, clever and just plain intelligent people watching the wcm boffins scurry around!!

"Donk" are you sure that all the dead horses have'nt already been promotedDonk wrote:I wasnt looking for anything in particular but while clicking through the pages on the interweb last night this gem came up and I thought it sounded kinda familiar:
The Dakota Indians of North America passed on this piece of wisdom down through the generations by word of mouth -
"If you are riding a dead horse the best thing to do is dismount".
However in the corporate world because of the heavy investment factor, other things to be tried, (but not limited to) are the following:
Buy a stronger whip
Change riders
Threaten the horse with termination
Appoint a committee to study the horse
Arrange to visit other sites to see how they ride dead horses
Lower the standards so dead horses can be included
Appoint an intervention team to reanimate the horse
Create a training session to increase the riders load share
Reclassify the horse as `living impaired'
Change the form so it reads "This horse is not dead"
Hire outside contractors to ride the dead horse
Harness several dead horses together for increased speed and efficiency
Provide additional funding to increase the dead horse's performance
Do a time management study to see if lighter riders would improve productivity
Purchase an after market product that makes dead horses run faster
Declare the dead horse has low overheads and is therefore cost effective
Form a quality focus group to find profitable uses for dead horses
Rewrite the performance requirements for dead horses
....and finally if all else fails.....promote the dead horse to management.

wcm is the biggest farce and waste of money I've seen in over 25 years.
