Most employers these days stink. They are miserly to the point of disbelief, they have no loyalty to their staff, they are suspicioius of everyone, and quite frankly, they really don't give a shit about their 'human resources', just about their profit. They want people to be 'available' Monday to Sunday 8am to 8pm, just in case they should need you...They regard all employees as having no right to any life outside their basic miinimum wage job, and..they don't like even giving you a contract, unless they have to.

In return they have a workforce that has shows them no loyalty, steals from them, has an 'Am I bovvered?' attitude and will leave them at the drop of a hat, or try to sue them so that at least they can get some 'job satisfaction' from the Stingy Bastards who employ them.

I realise there ARE good employers out there, but sadly, at least down here in the West Country, they are few and far between.

As an employee you are made to answer stupid, patronising questions..here's one from Boots the Chemist site, which my friend was raging about the other day:

"Have you ever lied to your parents?"

I mean????

Who the *fuck* wants to work for Dingbats who think that's a good question to ask an employee!

M&S had "Do you consider yourself to be honest?"
That made me roar with laughter...! "Doh....NOOOOOOOOO!" is the obvious answer to that one! ;0)

I mean, these thick as shite people have probably paid 'experts' hundreds of thousands of pounds for this pyschological bullshit...and they think intelligent people want to *work* for *them*?

I'd rather be on the streets selling The Big Issue. At least I'd still have my integrity!

Holey Jumping Catfish, WHAT has happened to everyone?!!!

AND....what the FUCK have my 'O' Levels, taken FORTY years back now got to do with my LIFE????? WHY do The Dingbats want to know??????

Working for the Corporate Bastards is a total nightmare. My friend's daughter worked for Boots, a while back..and she was body searched by them, had to hold the waist of her trousers out, take her shoes and socks off...She should, of course, have told them to fuck off, but they put it in their contracts you see...that Boots reserves the right to search you for BootsyTypeThings, that you've obviously stuffed down your knickers whilst lugging heavy boxes of stock up and down a lift that doesn't work, whilst working SIX hours with no break, 'cos they ain't *legally* entitled to give you one...(Hey, let's not bring *morally* into this situation!)

It serves them right if they're getting stuff stolen from them...Meaness breeds Meaness. Disloyalty breed Disloyalty. Supsicion breeds Couldn't Give a Flying Fuck About You or Your Business!

Once upon a time, in a Land, far, far away, it was all so very different...and it can be again, of course, because the Workforce is the one with the Power, NOT the employer...and without his workforce, he is lost..

Sadly, they've dumbed everyone down to the point where they no longer think about the bleedin' obvious, and they just chug along together, unhappy proles in a deeply unhappy Orwellian World....


What was the question again, Richard? Er............    ;0)
