An englishman in Paris

mercredi, janvier 19, 2011

Well i wonder ...

For years now, we've been looking to move out of our offices
and this or many reasons

The rent is sky high,
The owners don't look after the premises :
Au centreNo climatisation in the summer,
Bad heating in the winter and ...
flooding when it rains

Also, because we're not conforming to certain 'norms'
We make no allowances for physically challenged people
as but one example

FloweryTwats HQ tasked someone to find us a new abode
and, well, let's be honest, much unlike the goldilocks theory
or even the Midas touch in reverse
he only bumbled his way into buildings that were either
'too much this', 'not enough that'
but were certainly nowhere near
'just right'

In sum : a hare brained, wild goose chase of a waste of time

Why do i think of this ?

Because ....

I spent time today going over our sales results
(the 'why bother' is for later)
and realised that Fluffy has been on a downhill slide
and this, pretty much ever since he took over from MissusBossWoman

Then i got to thinking and came up with a few ideas :

Idea 1)
Perhaps he's just generally useless :
A bit of an old chancer
Who's managed to blag his way around thus far
But is starting to be found out

Hence the major freak-out last week

Idea 2)
He read the 'How to be a Manager for idiots' book at christmas.
But skipped the chapters covering :
'Leading by example',
'Monitoring only that which is worth mointoring',
'Setting attainable and realistic goals'

but did, however, attentively read the one about
'delegating' ...

Boy, he must have read and re-read that one
Perhaps it's his piece of loo reading material of choice

Whatever the case,
All of it has come back to painfully bite him on the arse

Hence the major freak-out last week

Idea c)
He's a stooge :
He's been sent in to do
what the bumblefuck from IvoryTowers can't

If we're unable to relocate,
then what the hell,
let's close down

No need to move, then, as the office has now become unviable
Once closed down, HQ can offer employees the choice of :
redundancy or moving to a new office

An office at an unfeasibly long distance away from home
'What the hey, they've signed off on the mobility clause'

Perhaps i've been unwittingly carrying on as normal
and have proven that ...

Holy shit batman
We can actually do good business here !!!

Hence last weeks' mega freak-out

Hmm
