I agree wholeheartedly, that 'high rankers' as my colleague calls them, are effectively rewarded for messing things up. If something equivalent happens at a lower level with someone responsible, they are fired, no golden handshake. There are a handful of specialist 'ceo surfers' that join failing companies, in their dying days, hang around for a couple of years lining their nest with contractual handshakes, for when the inevitable happens. (DSG were brought to their knees by one such imbecile, I met him after he came to our company, and him and another did the same thing. Imbecile is the only word I can use, or cabbage, cabbage probably better). These guys move on with nary a blot on their reputation.

yesterday I tried to call DHL, the number I called had 3 options, each one was voice and keypad activated and of no use to me, I needed to talk to someone. I emailed the ceo, I'm not wasting my time making call after call. If they want to make things difficult they can feel the pain.
I got home and they had done as asked. That's good enough for me macafee2 |

Good that you got it sorted - and is it just me that finds it laughable that a new position of “clerical assistant ordinaire” has to be fabricated in order to satisfy someone’s vanity?

Just for a laugh, but true. When I worked in the NHS in London, my street name was “Phil the pill” and I would like think it broke down barriers, but who knows. What about yourself John, what was your street name?
