Apprentice candidate bottled it

Apprentice is a freak show. Suralan's lines are obviously scripted and the candidates are chosen for entertainment value, not ability. The women were the usual back-stabbing talentless bunch and the boys (I use the term deliberately) looked like a bunch of monkeys gibbering around the hoses when they were washing cars.
 
Sir Alan definetly sacked the right one last night. Claimed to be god's gift to business : but did not have a clue.

Personally I would have taken a bucket/sponge and gone knocking door to door.

How very kinky of you, BP. Wouldn't have thought Suralan would have approved though.
 
It reminded me last night of bob a job week, rather than entrepreneurialism in action. Next week packing bags at Sainsburys and cake baking
 
The biggest giggle was when one of the girls held up a duster and said "what's this?".

Priceless.

Key moments included:

1. The token follower of Islam muttering, sotto voce, that for cleaning tasks he had a wife who did those

2. The women bitching and moaning with each other - one wonders, how much bitching and moaning would've been done if they'd won?

3. The simple lack of getting out and doing stuff - strategy = bollocks if there's no ability or desire to get out there and DO STUFF!

4. SA-trained/educated woman (Mona?) as PM deciding that she wanted to stab the "Debra" bint that she'd brought into the Boardroom with her

5. The number of non-job holders there - I mean, trainee stockbroker? If you're a trainee don't take time off to have your ego crushed on the BBC - train, learn and do try to desist from being such a twat.
 
What if CUK guys would be in Apprentice and face "boardroom" :)

I'd LOVE to. I'd tell Sir Alan:

"Sir Alan, we're members of the same synagogue, and my income is already in excess of the six-figures that you're offering so - with respect - mazel tov!".
