This is a question Bad Management

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?

Captain Thrush...
One of my colleague managers had the notion that he was senior to all other managers in the department and would talk down to everyone.
For this reason, he was nicknamed Captain Thrush... "Captain" because he thought he was in charge and "Thrush" because he was an irritating cunt.

I can't remember quite how (perhaps it was the Captain bit) but at every management meeting there was a competition to see how many nautical expressions could be made to fit the discussions. Even the Programme Director joined in.

Are you being served
Was it a play on the old "Captain Peacock" from Are you being served? pompous arse of a man.

Nope...
someone just came up with the name during a bitching/laughing session and it struck a chord.
