Why Mark ?

1). She isn't a model, although she should have been.
2). I've only met him once and he couldn't raise a smile on that occassion !
3). For what purpuse is this futile exercise anyhow, to help someone else make money ?

I don't think so !

my apologies David, I was making light of a serious situation in retrospect I should not have done that, I unreservedly apologize.

Accepted, let's move on !

Personally I HATE recruitment firms....

were in a tough time and they swan about tell lies and untruths.

Found one running our ads a while back about 8 months after the role had been filled. Yep ok no id on the ad but I wrote the blurb. They were advertisng a false job to get applicants cv's - harvesting potentials as they say.

anyways such is life, we let go one this morning wasnt plesant but we found out that there were issues with this cretin that we couldnt work with.

the other one doing real good, had him in the office on tuesday for a talk told him that could no longer pay him the salary that he was on, that we had to re-adjust the figues and his face tripped him till we told him he was getting a rise through the work he had done over the past four months,
He was chuffed, so he should be as he is going places....

Reading this it occurs to me that perhaps your company must be world class in deployment of excellent HR processes.

You know, in providing open and honest feedback regarding performance issues. Having transparent and appropriate recognition and reward procedures. That kind of stuff.

Ha ha - were not huge but we get by and were making a profit, last 6 years weve managed to stay afloat and make a profit....

The sad fact of doing business is that we can let the inner workings of the company grow and feed on themselves so that we end up using a lot of time effort and cost to service the internal politics.

If your doing well then you will get rewarded - been at the tail end in many companies before that used this performance management styles and to tell you honest truth if the people engaged in it are not skilled in it then it ends up a mess. I know of a few that have worked the systems and did fuck all and got high ratings and this was in a large multi national company that should ahve known better.

If you let this rot set in then it can side line the core business.....
