I thought things couldn't get any worse....after watching the little irish weasel stutter and stammer on tele last night.

BUT.....

Today, a Management representative came into our briefing to proclaim:

"If you volunteer to take a redundancy (VR).....then you are saving others from suffering Compulsory Redundancy (CR)"

Que ?????

I asked him to repeat it as I was sure I was hearing things.....but no he repeated it.

So is this the new dictum from HR to get rid of people. Shame people to leave -in order to "save your fellow man (or woman)"

As I'm one of the lucky ones -who is in fact leaving...... with nothing to lose-said to him that this was yet another example of management having total and utter contempt for their loyal staff.

The result was predictable.

A smirk-then he walked out.

This whole tawdry episode is appalling and makes me ill just thinking about it. To spend $500m on setting up a business in Asia/Japan with no experience other than the debacle in Vietnam- in lieu of investing in the International product.....STINKS.

THE OPPORTUNITIES OF THE 777-GONE
THE DECISION OF JOYCE OVER BORGHETTI-GONE

"What you sow.....you shall reap!"
