I won the officd quiz today so I have to do the questions for next weeks one.

Should I make it really easy or really hard or just really weird.

Should I make it really easy or really hard or just really weird.

I’ve made mine as hard as possible just because I feel like being a dick.

We've been doing a quiz daily, so I've set a few so far. Did a couple of music intro rounds, which went down well. Also created a powerpoint of tweets from Donald Trump and Kanye West, simply had to pick who sent the tweets. That went down quite well.

Don't set it overly hard, everyone will just think you're a c**t (maybe even more so than normal).

When I won that ended up being the last one, and I don't think anyone even completed mine

One of my mates did that in our quiz. I thought it was a great, unique idea for a round, but it appears not...

Make it memorable.

For example ask people to identify 10 things where the name is missing such as famous album covers, fizzy drinks, cans of soup, football strips.

Throw in a couple of The Caley based questions. Test those fuckers to see how much they actually know about that great club.

Got to love middle management literally scrambling for relevance at a time when it's quite clear - clearer than usual, at least - that they serve no real purpose other than to inconvenience people.

One way system is a great laugh tbh
Think of it as a conga, get right behind that person and join in

Must admit I've had a good chuckle to myself about the state of some of my workmates recently. For years they have been telling everybody how vital they are to the service that the council vehicle workshop provides. Different matter now though that they have been classed as key workers, most of them are seething at actually having to go to work.

My boss phones us once a week to update us, as if he knows more than us. Stand by your phone, I may call today.

I guarantee if he never phoned to update you that you’d be complaining about that with a “management don’t even care enough to phone us with a simple update blah blah blah” spiel.

The neighbours are c***s and against you, your colleagues and bosses are c***s and against you, P&B are c***s and against you.

So does mine. He cheerfully admits it's because he's been handed a checklist by his boss to tick off everyone who is still alive. Need to get HR moving if somebody's died.

I appreciate his refreshing honesty.

I’m guessing this is why mine phones as well but he likes to add veiled threats and pulls dates out of nowhere because he’s pissed off that he has to go in I guess? Everyone gets the same treatment, feel I need to explain my posts now because someone reading a work colleagues thread feels the need to attack someone because they had the cheek to explain their situation and use it to troll them. Sad really.

Middle management are the worstcunts. They’re basically real life Gareth Keenans with made up job titles that don’t carry any weight outside their department. 

They also don’t do anything for the company, they make it no profit. They’re not in the trenches doing the actual job, and they don’t sit at the top table making any decisions. They don’t appear to actually have an actual job.

Every office I’ve ever worked in has had them. They’re also always exclusively the office weirdo who only has 1 pint with the meal at the Christmas party as they’re driving and they’re gone as soon as the desert plates have been lifted.
