C-suite. If I have achieved nothing else, I have a least made this into a common term of gentle irreverence in the business, rather than something you might advertise. I think you should start using the phrase "You're a complete c-suite" as an insult. Everyone will know what you mean, and yet nobody in the c-suite will dare claim that it's an insult.

I don't know how anyone with a measure of perception and streetwisedom could work in conditions where it's plain that those around you are talentless hypocritical shysters. I couldn't even be self-employed if I held those standards.

It's not all of them, not by a long chalk, but the original team were largely the acolytes of the old CEO and they were complicit in the gaslighting of investors and new employees alike. You don't really get to look under the bonnet until your start with a company.

I wish they were using them to research the topic in hand. There's some old Northern fart banging on about Westcountry careers based on progression in a Cornish company that went out of business in the 80s.
What a numpty. Another pointless talking shop. Honestly, thentaxpayers' money that gets spunked on this sort of thing.

"to ensure lessons are learned".
Really. This has been a cringing mea culpa for around a quarter of a century.

'No one could have known' often falls into that category as well, especially its used often when loads told em what would happen, but they did it anyway.

He was such a sweet child. A lovely boy.
(It was such a shame he ran his car into those children, got out and shot ten people dead in Tescos before being taken out by police marksmen.)

"I'm good." In response to, 'Hello, how are you today?'
"Hey!" as a greeting.
