Wha-oh. It seems that the Business Courier (BC) has managed to find some dirt on my company, both from clients, and from people who recently left. Apparently an anonymous caller gave the BC the hook they needed to lampoon my company on recent failures, shortcomings, and to twist the knife apparently contacted many of the former employees regarding the validity.
My company has done some internal discussions, meetings, memos, emails, and talked to each one of us off-the-cuff about the current situations. Hell, the last corporate meeting I went to after being at the clients for two months looked like a completely different group of people. We’ve hired something like ten people in the last few months, and we’ve probably lost the equal amount.
I think myself, I’ve lost two direct managers just within the last four months. I lost my immediate supervisor, I lost my vertical manager, and at one point my departmental manager stepped down from the position. The departmental manager still works there, but I count it as a régime change. I like him though, so it wasn’t a bad régime to be apart of, not like those communists.
Speaking of which, we have an Olympics run by Germany under the Nazi regime, who were waging war, but we’re opposed to having an Olympics in China when they’re not waging wars? I tell you the difference in mentality in sixty years is astounding, especially with those who make such a show of support for Darfur by boycotting the Olympics. Boycotting the Olympics to make a point about how we’re supposed to be getting along as a world? Does that make sense to anyone else?
But I digress, so my company is starting to run the defence telling us that we’re going to be contacted by recruiters to hire us away, and we’re generally going to take a big black eye. The company is already aware of its failures in certain areas, I suppose the community thinks this is news, let me tell you, fail at one of the big companies, and everyone important has already heard about it. Not that I have anything against the Business Courier, heck I’ve helped with doing an Ad to them in a past life, but they really must be reaching on this one.
I’m admittedly curious what will be in this blast-tastic article that has my company so riled up. They believe they already know what is coming, but really I’m personally interested. I want to know what kind of fluids I’m standing in if you get my drift. There is a big difference between standing in a pool of Champaign or fecal matter. The floaters would probably give it away, but you never know. Could be those little frugens chocolate candies, or a giant man-log.
Well, stay tuned to hear more. I’ll probably post some details after I get a chance to read the publication.
