Corporate propaganda...

"Be sure to let your colleagues know how good this new training is."
But it isn't. It's unrealistic and condescending.

"One of your responsibilities as an advanced user is to be an ambassador for the new IT system to make sure your colleagues know how good it is."
It isn't. It was already obsolete a decade ago and you've bought it because it was cheap.

"We're looking after our staff by encouraging them to seek help from their mental health champions or line managers."
But our line manager is our mental health champion and is the source of most of his staff's problems.
If I was you, I would be sure to let everyone know how good the training and IT system is... ;)

Wags in general.

I have very little interest generally in football’s hangers on, but genuinely cannot abide this awful woman or her husband. So I am absolutely loving the coverage of the libel trial, which has so far seen Vardy ripped to shreds in full public view.

It’s astonishing that she brought this action, given that she must have known what would come out.

I don't think she is blessed in the brains department.

I read somewhere it will cost them £1 million each in legal fees, the 'winner' will only be awarded about 70% costs and between £15-40K in 'damages'. Not hard to see who the real winners will be:unsure:

all the while courts backlogs of proper cases continue to grow, many serious crimes taking well over 2 years to come to court currently

2 of them should have been told to grow up and sort it out between themselves rather than wasting over a week of court time whilst they advertise their overextended egos all over the tabloids

Although this case isn’t being held in a criminal court, so won’t actually impact on the backlogs in Crown and Magistrate’s courts.

I absolutely agree this is a frivolous waste of the courts’ time, but it’s still bloody good entertainment. Nothing better than watching at least one odious, z-list “celebrity”, with a sense of entitlement, dig her own hole to disappear down. Hopefully never to be seen or heard of again.

Who?

Aware of what’s been going on, in general terms, but haven’t a clue what either of them look like. Got better things in life to occupy my time.

So have I, but I’m always available to enjoy the public shaming and downfall of a celebrity who has absolutely no right to refer to themselves as such.

I remember the game ratrace growing up. When you could earn your way to middle class... Higher class etc etc .. or could marry into it

She's like a hoodrat who's married into "higher class" because her husband can kick a ball.

The type who would wear lounge wear to the shops with a Dagenham facelift hair style whilst buying a pack of 20

Finally bought a Euromillion ticket ..: woke up to the news that there is a U.K. winner of £184m…. Checked my numbers and it is not me (again)
It was me
I blame the parents - what the hell is that spelling of Rebeccah all about?!
Nothing wrong with how it's spelt....it's when it's shortened to "Beckeeeeeeeeeeeey"
And yes, the best way has it ending "kah"

I’m with you. I can’t stand the celebrity idol culture generally so am fascinated reading of her self immolation on the witness stand and everything it’s revealing about the complicity in those types of tabloid “stories.”
