Tb2571989 says Bad Management isn't just a great name for a heavy metal band - what kind of rubbish work practices have you had to put up with?

Temper temper

During a Business Management lecture about differing management approaches, the professor completely flipped out when a girl sat at the front received a text message. The beeps from her phone set him off and he just lost it, yelling and screaming for her to get out of the hall.

He was usually a pretty laid back guy and we all just sat there open-mouthed while he berated her. Her 'but sir...' was completely shot down and he yelled she was going to be kicked off the course.

As she stood up and began to pack her stuff away in tears, he abruptly changed his tone and said 'Now that's an example of overly aggressive management.'

I've never laughed so much.

Yeah, but she'll be up on a bell tower with a rifle in no time.

Ha!
If I'd been the girl I'd have gone back in, kneed him in the nuts and said "now that's an example of an overly aggressive reaction".

Then driven off in my Honda Accord to have sex with some supermodels, etc.

Hello
I have to ask - what is all the Honda accord stuff about?

I feel I am going to regret asking this....

It's a really shit in-joke following on from some blokes post about running his old bully over with his Honda Accord.

Except the in-joke is neither witty or amusing, and is a tired cliche used when stories appear to be made up.

Really? Well, this is a true story, so blah to them.

They're just pulling your leg
All the Honda Accord anecdotes are true!

I thought it had something to do with that man in suspenders putting his bits in the exhaust of a car

Thanks to everyone for clarifying that!

Pea Roast
Ah. I'd got the meaning but not the origin.

I was also about to post a query on "pea roasting" then twigged it was a not-quite-a-spoonerism of "repeating post"...

or 'repost', if you will...

I was accused of a honda accord recently
now I understand.. thanks for asking

Oohhhhhhhhhhh!
I thought it was some sort of rhyming slang for "bored"

So I failed not only on the origin but the context, too. *slinks away in shame*

Me too
and I'd probably have set fire to his car afterwards.
