Tell us about measures that go beyond simple belt tightening into the realms of Mr Scrooge.

yeah agreedI used to work for a recruitment consultancy (sorry I know they are a bunch of wankers – but it was one of the few office jobs I could get with a shark tattooed on my hand).
We had to go away to Gloucester for training every other weekend, I live in Brighton – its miles on the train, id always have to stay in a shitty sub travel lodge that Alan Partridge would adore and then I’d get back Monday so I’d have worked a 7 day week . then they say what's this charge on the minibar £1? – it’s a bottle of fucking water! Nothing else from the minibar would cost that – cue hour long lecture on inappropriate spending….
