44 Print off a pie-chart of different customer complaints
45 Or a bar graph of the duties with the most/least tracked scans
46 Let the phone ring continuously to give the impression that we are far too busy and desperately in need of a receptionist
47 Put out a failed lapsing plan
On the face of it, shareholder value is the dumbest idea in the world.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.
