The Vole -- Resignation of the Week.
It would appear the rat's are starting to leave the sinking ship. In reality of course it's the most able that leave first, they find it easiest to get new jobs. The brown-noses invariably stay put (out of necessity).
The most notable resignation is that of Head of Engineering, Ivor Wrench, who handed in his notice last week. He described the new slimmed down Engineering Dept. as an "effin joke" and refused to implement the cuts. Ivor is moving to an unspecified firm of Engineering Consultants specialising in water related projects.
His place as Head of Engineering will be taken by Helen Highwater. Helen does not have any engineering qualifications, but doesn't see this as problem "Everything major will be outsourced in the future anyway" she said, "so my degree in Business Studies will be more than adequate". The fact that Helen went to college with and is still a close friend of the MD's daughter is not relevant according to Human Resources.
The MD is reputed to be furious about Ivor's resignation and made remarks to the effect that loyalty was sadly lacking in AV(2010)PLC employees these days. (Doesn't loyalty work both ways any more? ...... Matt)
