Red flag workplace phrases

jeudi 2 juin 2022

Just read an article talking about phrases used in the workplace that should be seen as red flags e.g.

A fast paced environment = frenetic and overworked
Must be a self-starter = won’t be given any training or support
Able to wear different hats = we are understaffed and you’ll have to do jobs you weren’t employed for
We are like a family = we expect you to do stuff outside of your actual contract and for no extra money
Salary up to £30000 = you’ll never get near £30000.

Any others that have been heard/experienced in the workplace?

The list that annoys most people by it's recipients or just it's existence has been announced. Gareth Bale gets an M.B.E. (Most benched ever?).

Actor defeating an actor in a libel case is the main item on BBC 10o’clock news…

What the actual ****.

What has happened to journalism and editorial decisions at the BBC?

I mean, it’s not as if there’s a war on, or a cost of living crisis, or a proven liar occupying number 10 is there?


10th October 1970 vs Man Utd.

Man Utd 0-1 Crystal Palace.
(Bobby Tambling 63 mins)

I was at this game and remember us playing really well against Best, Charlton, Stiles, Kidd etc.

BUT, one of the strongest memories I have of the day are the yellow socks that we wore with the away kit.

So, I've created a Subbuteo team in the kit worn on that day.

Original Subbuteo figures (stripped and repainted in the 1970's Subbuteo style) paired with modern reproduction bases.

Good Luck and get better a great battler in his day so should have this beaten.

Reading the piece does seem he is winning as its been caught early.

A useful reminder though to all us chaps keep checking.


Suggestion: Paul Pogba

Confirmed that he’s leaving the wankers on a free.

Thoughts?
