DWP (Seaham) -anybody worked there??

[dangermows]

I take it you work in the civil service then

Did for about six years. Got sick of pay freezes so dove into the private sector. Said it plenty on here, the obsession with one sector against another is baffling and embarrassing. Both sectors have chancers and hard workers.

Always suspected that, did a long stint at Longbenton , worked with grafters and people who were virtually unemployable outside of longbenton

I left 3 years ago , lots of chancers flying through the ranks , top mgmt loved them , most couldn't do admin work , but bullshit baffles brains i suppose , still meet up for a beer with some mates from bpv, desperate to get out

What they waiting for? Pay off? Thing is, further up you go, the less work you need to do. It's all meetings. So the capable suit the business better staying further down the chain.

Already started in our area - plan is to have 60% desks to people across BPV and not far off that , I rarely get a desk in with the team I head now as I don’t get in early enough. The car park passes are all under review though so at least those who live close to the office will need to surrender their pass to those with long commutes

April can't come quick enough!

Aye a lad I know is a team leader there.

Dinnit he'll knack iz

 

[Plank]

I think you'll find 25% do all the work, 50% do nothing all day and 25% are unemployable elsewhere - I'm in the 25% doing all the work, although posting on football forums isn't really in my job description

Thought you would be like.

 

[Unbalanced Views]

Thought you would be like.

Which percentile do you fall into ?

 

[Plank]

Which percentile do you fall into ?

I don't work for Civil Service

 

[Unbalanced Views]

I don't work for Civil Service

I didn't ask who you worked for, I asked which percentile you think you fit into

True enough , promote the fuckwits leave the grafters in admin and get the targets hit

Imagine using the words 'grafters' and 'admin' in the same sentence

They'd be different mate since your percentages were based on Civil Service.

I'm probably sitting in between 'Doing all of the work' and 'Doing nowt all day' though.

Would that be doing all of the nowt?

 

[Plank]

Pretty much.
