Tighter than ...
A few years ago my boss "organised" a christmas party at a scary local pub without telling us until the last minute. "Be there for 12:00, I've orgainsed food" he said.

We all wandered in, I went up to the bar and told the barman we'd come for the party. "What party ? and by the way we don't do food".

I persuaded the chap to let us run up a tab. Boss wanders in at 12:30, "Oh where are the sandwiches" he asked, only to be glared at by half a dozen hungry and fed up people. He looked a bit miffed when I told him we were running up a tab on his behalf.

He then went up to each person and asked "What type of crisps would you like ?". "Just get some bags of crisps and nuts and sit down" by this point we had had enough of his organisational skills. My cat could have done a better job than him, at least I would have known she had done nothing.

Since then he "delegates" the task to someone else. In other words he's so useless he has to get someone to do it for him. Do babies "delegate" someone to change their nappies?

Last one I organised for him, we went to my favorite Indian. Before we sat down I'd ordered 15 pints of Cobra and 30 popadoms for everyone. His face was a picture. Even without his stupid beret, bike jacket and long scarf, in his 50's.

I also discovered myself and most of my colleagues can say "what the f... is he wearing" without moving our lips.

He is a Project Manager ffs.
