Do your job, get paid for it, move on if you don't like it, but NEVER slag off an employer in a public forum. It's highly unprofessional, it paints us all in a bad light where in fact most people want to do the best they can AND there are plenty of people willing to take your job in the current economic climate.

    I would fire anyone on the spot for posting this type of nonsense.

    Troll much?

        If we're talking about posting nonsense you should fire yourself...

            That's why we're anonymous.


            Numpty, a very happy person to be an ex-customer of that appalling bad excuse for a shambles, VirginMedia. May their shareholders rot in poverty.

                      Actually this is a measure of how discreet people are on CUK.

                      Everyone of us has, at some time, worked for idiots, incompetents, cheapskates and the like - we don't wash our dirty linen in public because generally there were one or two managers there we liked and respected and would like to work for again.

                      This is the very first time that I can remember when a client is so dire that this discretion/confidentiality has been discarded. And I have it from other sources that it is deserved.

                      And since daviejones is well out of it, the 'firing for this nonsense' nonsense doesn't really apply, does it?

                      I'm sure he's not to be too upset that he won't be invited back to that particular client, either...

                      Hey Sunrise! - you wouldn't happen to be:

                      1) An agent struggling to get anyone to go there, are you?
                      2) A recruiting manager struggling to get any recruiting agencies to work for you, are you?

                      In either case - good luck with that!!
