Befuddled

Our nice new “secure” office got broken into on Monday night. Not much taken, but all the same, so much for *cough* security, eh?

At the same time, when Twunty Manager™ left at 3.30am on Sunday (well, technically Monday, but hey, who’s counting) it turns out he left the entire place unlocked. Front door, back door, “secure” door with a card-key, the lot. All open. The cleaners waltzed in on Monday morning and didn’t need to do anything. Scary.

What’s more bizarre is that Twunty Manager™ won’t even get a reprimand from the directors for it. In this office move he’s cost the company somewhere in the region of £75,000 including two new servers, and a hardware network contractor at £75per hour – for a lot of hours. And again, he’s not even had a reprimand.

If I were a director and had someone who’d cost me that much money, I’d be sacking the fucker for gross misconduct. But no, this one’s had nothing.

I suppose it’s all down to that old piece of wisdom

It’s not who you know, it’s what you know about who you know.

Or maybe I’m just cynical.
