Lowest feed chain

[pabird]

Have today seen the lowest peg on the human food chain

Standing in Ludgate Circus is a man who looks to have more than two brain cells holding an 8ft long stick of timber (vertical)

Attached is the Mcdonalds crown poster with an arrow pointing down Fleet St

Can anybody think off an employment position lower down the career progression chain

Don't you mean KTFC, Patrick? Oops! sorry, that was LMU's one and only joke.

 

Where is she BTW? I see it's her birthday on Monday.

in 1983 my first job was to take all the normal staples out of huge files and replace them with one giant staple from the 'mega' stapler. i also had to go round the office and switch all the lights back on as they all still switched off at 3 pm (a hangover from the 70's miners strike and power shortages).. i have also tried to get 7 fry ups with beans through one of those extra narrow security revolving doors which you had to swipe a card through to open whilst about 5 security staff pissed themselves laughing.. my byrites shirt and extra wide polyester paisly tie were not happy

I once visited a library where 5 people were employed to iron newspapers, all day every day <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Was that on your day off, EffemSel?

[pabird]

We could invent roles even lower in the chain

ie Deputy chairman basilricay

George Borges English teacher

Croydon FC groundsman

Highbury disciplinary code manager

[Chubbhead EFM]

Ah yes, but with the right language you can turn any menial sounding job into an important sounding job. For example, the bloke with the MacD's stick could be 'store location manager', or CANV's stapling job could be re-named 'stationary re-assignment co-ordinator'.

 

I, intstead of being a waitress in a coffee shop, am a 'caffine produce development personnel'! (although my proper title is 'Barista' which means 'proffesional coffee maker' in Italian!-very pretentious!)

[Stu B]

I'm a replinshment assistant(shelf stacker).

[Boot CleanerEFM]

whats wrong with that

[Stu B]

Nothing wrong with it...just pointing out it's a complicated way of calling me a shelf stacker.

[Boot CleanerEFM]

oh right

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

I once took the individial pages from a booklet of vouchers, had to put them all together and staple them - by hand - overnight - for several nights <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

its important to start at the bottom so you can appreciate any achievments more.. its also important not to stay there to long.. and you need to be prepared to go back to the bottom a few times to get where u want to be...

although drifting through life seeing where the current takes you is genearally much more fun

[pabird]

Strange really but the longer you work the more you meet people at the top of the chain who should be hanging on at the bottom of the chain

[CANV EFM]

people lucking their way to the top i can handle, thats just the way of the world, the same if your born into it, no reason why parents shouldnt leave what they have achieved to their children.. what i hate are the talentless coporate brown nosers, the snidey political animals.. move them out of the way to let some honest talent through

[pabird]

You arrived exactly at the point I was making

Office politics and freemasonary should be criminal issues
