Just this very morning I have received an extremely imperious email from some jumped-up consultant
who seems to think that the best way of getting me onside is to copy in his boss and his boss's boss in the email which refers to his issue "directly impacting his candidate attraction for live vacancies". He would like me to inform him on the best way of getting it resolved.

I am having to take a bit of break before replying in the hopes it'll stop me saying "Please apply the following procedure 1: Climb down from the several feet you appear to be lodged up your own anus..."

However, he's the one that had the balls to set up a business that pays you a salary.
You owe him a level of respect for that.

No he didn't - he bought it when we were fucked.
I do respect him for the work he's put in but he is an administrator with no imagination or people skills, and an ill-mannered cretin, to boot. Plus, yid.

Alright, at least he had the balls to buy a failing business to keep it going & to get it back on track.
