    Good old fashioned people management….

    Is alive and kicking.

    Server top bod very obstructive saying no time for an important couple of hours at some point at his convenience over the next 3 weeks blocking getting the shiny new defect management toy up and running.

    As in, very obstructive.

    South African take no sheite PM takes him outside.

    We now have a very compliant server manager

    The old ways are often the best!

    Eh? Is that an example of the grammar in your CV too? Is that why you're a permie now?

        Define takes him outside please. That one can be construed in a number of different, possibly disturbing, ways.

          It presumably means that like all good PMs he has spoken to him alone rather than in front of everyone else.

                Good word.

                From the Urban dictionary:

                Irish slang for a "Big Ignorant F**ker From Offaly" but feel free to substitute your city of choice...

                My substitute would be Ohio.

                    For those who like to reminisce about biff.
