My fax has broken, a light keeps flickering above me giving me a nervous twitch every time it flickers, the air con has started to drip and is hitting the back of my neck, I’ve just had a £5000 clawback (this was the last fax I had before it broke)I’ve run out of tea bags and my sales guys have lost the ability to sell.

I shall be going to the pub in 10 mins and getting fking ratted and may kick some small children on the way.


How was your day?

Lousy website OP. Maybe your sales team aspire to the same heights.

The only interesting thing was that page title was 'MobyDix' smile

I can't solve your other problems, but your sales guys haven't lost the ability to sell. Try picking the phone up today yourself - getting people to spend money is like pulling teeth until the current financial cock-up calms down.

Terrible, I travelled 180 miles to a meeting, only to be told that the meeting had been cancelled, and that they had left a message on my answer phone, but I do not have an answer phone. Others also that had driven long distances were also not notified, and told “well it happens”.

You don't really want to hear that I had a decent enough day, wasn't that great, but compared to yours it was good.

Sounds grim my friend, and rather than say chin up, tomorrow will be better etc, I can only recommend that you spend the night at the pub and then conduct a sales team motivational chat (aka bking) tomorrow morning with a raging hangover. Should shake them up.

Good luck beer

So it's bad, and getting worse?

Way to cheer him up, fella.

The technique of a 25yo or techniques from 25 years ago?

Anyway lock the door tomorrow. Shoot one in the forehead. See if the others perk up a bit.

Is that management techniques that are 25 years old, or management techniques of a 25 year old?
