Can we have an emoticon for puking like a bulimic supermodel? Oh we do!!!
Making a better future for YOU dear, but funnily enough a WORSE one for the other 95% of employees AND customers of Royal Fail.
For 'Moving the business forward' read 'Cutting costs by screwing the everyday staff and making management level bonuses and perks even bigger!
These scum bags run our working lives. God help us. CAPITALISM IS A VICIOUS SCAM. By-by human dignity.
I wouldn't wipe my arse on snow-white. Actually I would.
like daytime TV making sh** shine with all that superficial corporate 90's b***ocks straight out of " The Office " , the irony is that RM have the money to pay the Sebastians and Julians with their pony tails and red rimmed glasses in PR for all this . Then there will be a manager over them earning bonuses .
When "The Office" started I hadn't seen any blurb about it. didn't catch the beginning and so it was halfway through the programme when I tuned in - my first thought was how is this guy getting away with this - now of course it is quite clear because it happens everyday in delivery offices.
That's it , RM just don't get it , "The Office" was done as a toe curling mockumentary set in the mid 90's , my brother used to have a boss like David Brent ; everybody would be looking down at their shoes in team briefings as he was so embarrassing .
The same goes for all this jargon , you could get Bulls*** Bingo books , somebody would be droning on and then excitement if someone got a line or full house . Then there was :lfo and his clones and the buzz sayings . RM powerpoint presentations are full of double speak jargon .
" The Smoking Room " was another good satire - people used to dread Outward Bound Courses that were once in vogue for " team building " , Corrie did a comical one , Ken Barlow just pushed trolleys round a supermarket car park but he had to go on one

. Then the next craze was for the " Walk of fire " .
I've reported RM's attempts on " Team Bonding Sessions " to the union , obviously there was a lot of pressure from on high but it had to be reported as there's a sinister divide and rule element to them and they were hoping people were too thick and daft to notice .
The only team bonding I would have wanted with some of them would be through a medium or a spiritualist
Most of the attempts were cocked up in traditional RM style anyway and were laughable BUT local managers would be looking for the " grass " who told " tales out of class " .
