Corporate IdiocyComedian Al Murray recounts a run-in with industrial-scale stupidity: "Car insurance company rang, without having sent me a renewal letter, asking for money. Made them answer security questions." In the same vein, tell us your stories about pointless paperwork and corporate quarter-wits

I completely agree with this...Maybe not the *top* three layers, but certainly at least three of the layers between me and the Chief Exec.

I'd have some harsh wage caps, too.6 figure salary? Not on the public purse.
Max it out at £60k (80, if I'm feeling generous), and all the overpaid wastes of space will probably leave, anyway.

Yep, sounds fair.There was an advert for a new chief exec at the local ambulance trust recently, with an advertised salary of "circa £120k (see text)".
I was intrigued to see what the text said - more money was available for an exceptional applicant, apparently.

Given that the Prime Minister earns a bit more than £140KThat would seem a tad excessive.

For £120k,I'll bet they have to do some serious delegation.

I could have done that, I'm good at delegating.I seriously considered offering them myself for £40k a year and employing an assistant for another £30k. We'd have muddled through together, we'd both have been earning good money and they'd have saved £50k... what's not to like?
