Title: Re: Those of us fortunate enough to still be working....
Post by: Sir Brenty on October 03, 2020, 06:50:34 am
I have a team. They are my team.

I don’t tend to refer to them as “my team” verbally or in writing normally saying “the team”. At least in front of them.

They though refer to themselves as being in “Peter’s team”.

They are a brilliant team of very capable normal adults and I like them a lot.
They're not your team, you don't employ them, you don't own them and you're not responsible for them. They are fully grown adults and don't see themselves as being owned by you. You're just an employee and a number who the company could sack any time they like, the same as them.

Having a team doesn’t mean you own people. It just means you have a level or responsibility and accountability for them.

Alex Ferguson didn’t own the class of 92 but they were part of the team he built.

You seem to have some kind of hang up about this.

It really bothers him, pleasing 😁.

Some folk with dead end jobs will never understand Pedro.

It’s jealousy, they maybe should have stuck in a bit more.

Hey ho, thems the breaks.
Pedro 🙈

And the wee fanny with the shi#e crystal ball strikes again.

Hey ho, once a wee fanny.

You shouldn’t be walking the streets, you are a danger to the public.

A racist, facist, jaffa, fruitcake 😀

Ive never called you a facist

I’m enjoying wfh, saves me travelling to Aberdeen every day. Even once this is over I think I’ll only be there 2/3 days a week which is a bonus.

Of the 10 staff that have recently departed, I would have only wanted to keep two.

Office politics are through the roof within my department!  Maybe not having to see people face to face means people aren't as scared to bump their gums?

I find there are pros and cons to WFH, but the pros outweigh the cons.  I feel I get through more work at home too, although i seem to be busier than ever.

I really don’t like to complain but is anyone else finding it’s crazy just now?

There seems to be an expectation now of business as usual and more, and as the brown misers scramble to improve and secure their positions due to their insecurities, it’s getting wilder by the day with office politics now digitised.

Or is it just me?
