And I’ve just finished a TfL course about fatigue

Microsoft can have one again, they have broken email on a number of tenancies. 
The head of the Think Tank for Managing Fatigue has left the organisation just at a time when new rosters are being introduced which give a huge Fuck You to work/life balance and increasing fatigue.
Coincidence?

Sung to a long forgotten tune.
“The working class can kiss my arse
I’ve got the foreman’s job at last.”
My LMS installation can have a slap. Working this afternoon, absolutely will not connect properly now despite a couple of reboots and despite the main PCP page working.
Hahaha

That’s brutal 
Got our bill this morning - ours also went up 80 quid, a 4% increase.
We’re very fortunate tho because our bungo was enlarged by 150% when the extension was built in 2020 by the previous owner, yet it still has the original banding rate of “C”
If they ever get around to doing rebanding surveys, we’ll have to pay a shitload more.

I used to work for them too (many years ago). Nastiest work environment I’ve ever been in. Couldn’t wait to get out of there.

Unfortunately I managed to experience worse.
I did a single year at a place that rhymes with Schmorgan Schmanley. I used to console myself with “hey, this place might be seriously dysfunctional, but at least it’s not as bad as [one particularly mad death march with ACN]”.
Then I came in at 8am some time in August to find a new and completely stark-staring bonkers directive and decided that “You know what? This actually is the worst place I’ve ever worked”.
In the year I was there that project haemorrhaged 80% of the team and management were still scratching their heads as to why. Pro tip: don’t treat people like dogshit

A childhood neighbour became a partner at ACN and somehow we ended up going to him and his wife’s 10 year wedding anniversary dinner.
They basically used the speeches as an opportunity to chuck rocks at each other.
I’m paraphrasing but it was along the lines of
“If only you’d been around for the kids growing up”
“Yeah, well what do you think pays the terrifying mortgage?”
etc.
My ex boss was from there - he was an utter wanker.
It was actually quite funny, he brought in a bunch of people from there to build up his team - they were all on hugely inflated titles/grades/salaries, as that’s what he’d promised them to move. None of them had a clue what they were doing and were all equally repellent personalities - a Trumpian mix of ignorance, arrogance and hubris. They were all quite junior yet would interrupt people, even more senior, on calls, trying to ask critical/searching questions to show they were the boss and in control, yet actually coming across like idiots who had no idea what they were doing.
Anyway, at the first sign of the wheels coming off the wagon for his team, he jumps ship, leaving all his mates stranded. They were furious. Now a new boss has come in and is looking critically at all his resources - they’re all bricking it. And likely won’t be able to find another job easily that pays the same as what they’re currently on.

It appears I have to hear about Conor Macgregor again, but fortunately someone has come up with the genius name of Andrew Tayto.

And we pay these fucking cunts a big fat salary, yet they keep cocking it up and killing people.
