Honest_Man#1 Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Every organisation I’ve worked in has a “Procurement Department” rather than a “Buying/Purchasing Department”. I think that one can’t be particularly new and must be fairly common now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlipperyP Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Our owner of the company retired last year, however is always in the background (I don't blame him), he was a git c**t straight down the middle told you how it was, for the last 3 years he has been getting a team of 5 Managers together to run his shite. Our meetings before were. Owner"Slippery, you still alive?" Me"Aye, whits wrong?" Owner"nothing, just not heard from you for a few weeks" Me"Aye, nothing to report, you will be first to know" Owner"cheers" NOW, the "team" is in place, meeting every week. Have 1 c**t, 34 yo, first job, been in Higher Education all his life. At the meeting all he says "lets write that up, sign it and score it out". I asked during the 3rd meeting and asked, that I'd never received anything written up. When will this happen? his response "Well Slippery, it's just a way of words, to say move on" YES I FUCKING KNOW THAT. WHY DO YOU KEEP SAYING IT. We have many nationalities sitting here,. This is just shite talk. Let's speak normal language that we all can understand with out shite like this. End of meeting 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 A 34 year old who had been in higher education and is just in his first job? What was he studying and why did it take him so long? How did he support himself without a job? And why was a guy with zero previous experience, of anything, who took an inordinate amount of time to complete his higher education, hired for a management job? And are they still hiring? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And why was a guy with zero previous experience, of anything, who took an inordinate amount of time to complete his higher education, hired for a management job? And are they still hiring? Most of those question I would love to answer, however I have nothing apart from.1.Yes 34 and his first job, he has been under the wing of the owner for 3 years.2.Marketing. f**k knows why or what he was studying for so long.3. Not got a clue. Never speak to him about his personal life.4.Owner probably thought he could have someone to control, after all he has a loose cannon working for him[emoji57] Update, we had a meeting total around 12 people not all Management.He said f**k all. Think he got the hint[emoji1] 5.Yes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
