      +1 but I would add "and ensure no-one who

      a)can do the job
      b)who the business actually wants or
      c) expects a sensible rate

      is ever appointed"

        NEW DISCOVERY IN THE WORLD OF SCIENCE
        A major research institution has recently announced the discovery of
        the heaviest element yet known to science. This new element has been
        tentatively named "Administratium".
        Administratium has 1 neutron, 12 assistant neutrons, 75 deputy
        neutrons, and 111 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic
        mass of 312. These 312 particles are held together by a force
        called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of
        lepton-like particles called peons.
        Since Administratium has no electrons, it is inert. However, it
        can be detected as it impedes every reaction with which it
        comes into contact.
        A minute amount of Administratium causes one reaction to take
        over 4 days to complete when it would normally take only a
        few minutes. Administratium has a normal half-life of 3 years;
        it does not decay but instead undergoes a reorganization,
        in which a portion of the assistant neutrons and deputy neutrons
        and assistant deputy neutrons exchange places, and additional
        peons are added.
        In fact, Administratium's mass will actually increase over time,
        since each reorganization causes some morons to become
        neutrons forming isodopes.
        This characteristic of moron-promotion leads some scientists to
        speculate that Administratium is formed whenever morons reach a certain
        quantity in concentration.
        This hypothetical quantity is referred to as "Critical Morass."
        You will know it when you see it...

            So what you're saying is that our (CUK) Admin is a moron and a waste of space.

            Bit harsh. See you again in two years Brillo.

                She is quite annoying, especially when the popup window gets hidden under other browser windows, only to reappear once someone else is using the computer

                Don't know how that got there

                    As a humanities graduate, can I just say that that is entirely fair.
