Latest news on the (ex) CEO front:
It's funny how what goes round comes around. I've heard, from a very reliable journalistic source with an ear in local government, that the CEO's misdemeanours ARE the sort that lands one in jail. Playing fast and loose with PUBLIC money, yes that's right money that ultimately belongs to all of us tax payers. Conducting back of fag packet and brown envelope business deals from one of his favourite haunts, a lap dancing club in Newcastle. A claim of an affair outside of marriage with another man (nowt wrong with that if thats your thing). Noiseabatement was correct about the rumour of a move to BHX. He had chased after that before the unfortunate ex MD of BHX was even cold in his grave.
He was escorted from the premises and immediately the codes on all the doors were changed. His fall from grace was meticulously orchestrated by one of his closest chums who now runs the ship and clinically implemented by the head of another department as an act of vengeance for the way he had been treated which led him to have two nervous breakdowns. I might be speaking too soon but I don't think we'll be seeing him back. Of course stranger things have been known to happen.
And before you ask Ops Guy, No, I am not a fan and I don't expect that very many others are either. That doesn't mean I dont love the place where I work and hope for the best for it. I also want the best for my fellow Geordies and it rankles the way they have been robbed and betrayed by the devious coniving worm.
The oft quoted phrase springs to mind - Good riddance to bad rubbish! We should all celebrate. How about a night in the toon?
