[quote=“briantinnion, post: 831383, member: 6”]I’m on fire at the moment. At a meeting this week I said:
“Look, if someone needs to take him to the woodshed I don’t mind doing it”
i.e. have a word with someone who has been underperforming and tell the to fucking sort their shit.[/quote]
Excellent stuff Brian. Are these off the cuff or do you put some thought into these beforehand?

That sounds a bit Brokeback Mountain to me.
Which, judging by the funboy-style attire you were sporting last week, tinnnion, is hardly a surprise.
Unit wide presentation today to discuss some amended and new regulations that will impact us.
It was a “town hall event”. And while there shouldn’t be any “big bang” issues arising from the reform, we’ve been assured that smaller group sessions can be arranged if anybody wants a “deeper dive” into the regulation changes.

Have your colleagues any trust in the mission, vision, goals and values of your organisation, Fitzy? Have these major structural changes impacted on your organisations ability to sustain long term engagement with it’s staff? Sustainable engagement is key to engendering an advantage on your competitors through employee added value in areas such as customer service, decreases in absenteeism and increases in levels of innovation. Engagement levels in Australian organisations are some of the highest in the world, Fitzy at approximately 24% but, as organisations with high levels of engagement have, on average, 147% higher earnings per share than competitors with low levels of engagement, then I think you will agree that it is a subject and an activity that should be discussed and explored in great detail at your upcoming conference, mate.
Sustainable engagement is key, Fitzy.
“opinion of the crowd” is one that has gotten fashionable here lately…
It’s not a new word but it’s one I fucking despise, liaise. “Can you liaise with John about that?” What’s wrong with just saying “Talk to John about that”
I know where youre coming from.
I find myself using it all too frequently of late,but generally, in letters rather than verbally.
I can do 10 press-ups and a one minute plank, not bad for my age
