      Part way through the meeting he re-read previous points - he hadn't realised we'd discussed them 30 minutes earlier!!!!

      I think they have to retrain him when he returns from lunch every day!!!!

      After the meeting he actually turns to me and says - I think that went quite well...

      USELESS!!!!



      Bing!
      He's probably a paragon of decisive efficiency, with everything firmly under control, but then you do his head in by saying "Bing!" every few seconds.

                    If you can do all that, then you can call yourself a manager.
                    yeah but who'd want to be a manager?!?

                      this is what I thought, having worked with twunts like this before they are ripe for having fun with and will never notice you're taking the piss
