This is what you get for hiring people purely because
they've got quite funky socks.

I think the merits of the person in question don't extend to funky socks

isn't that grounds for dismissal in a job where you need to be
worldly and knowledgable?
isn't it fairer to say 'listen, pet, you're not owwa good at this. You might want to think about trying harder or getting another job'? That way - she doesn't labour on for ages thinking she's good at a job she's not good at.

it was from an article titled thus:

[large corporation] lassoes nearly 5000 customers in first quarter
suggested new phrase:
[large corporation] loses nearly 5000 customers in first quarter
which I would say is a fairly major error of comprehension

O_O
then I presume that this job actually requires some level of qualification above nvq 1 in opening envelopes
I read about too many mongs getting paid too much to do their jobs badly and it's usually followed with how other people who do their jobs properly fix the mess

Well if an opening ever arises
do let me know, I'm good with grammar (well, essentially. I had a bit of a problem with possessive apostrophes due to my stupid primary school)....
