Cardinal Richelieu Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Maybe it's just how my mind works, but two words kept jumping out that wall of text ... booze and spunk. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) 'Resilience' is doing the rounds at my work at the moment. Resilience Planning seems to be trying to keep the place going with less people. I suppose it's good to know our senior management team at least recognise that the place is on the downward spiral.

BFTD Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Met with more people who were "adding value" to what I do, earlier. Is this similar to how someone "added value" to Throbber's back seat a few days ago? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEADOWXI Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I feel sick. Emailing colleagues in the US and I finished my email 'We are chasing for resolution', It is fucking contagious this shite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacksgranda Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Saw an e-mail a colleague received "This problem has now escalated to me.. - Can we get a work around resolution..." People would have to work at getting this sort of sh+1t into their vocabulary, it seems an enormous amount of work. Why not say "This problem has been brought to my attention... can you please sort it". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigjerseybuddie Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Going through "resilience training" at the moment. Biggest pile of pish I've ever attended. I'm privileged to work with very intelligent people who concur with my assessment. The sinister thing about it is when anyone doesn't understand any aspect of the programme( which is quite often) the trainer adopts a Thatcherite stance by trying to convince us that there is something wrong with us rather than modifying the session. We have to watch out for our icebergs and be careful of what lights our fires. How we got this far in life without these principles is a miracle really. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got through this in my work too although nothing about icebergs or anything, in fact I quite enjoyed mine. Resilience and pillars are the 2016 watch words - I've heard it a lot and not just inside my work. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
