This may be absolutely useless info to everyone on here, but after having enough of the most useless buggers I have ever had to work with…I Quit.
Handed my boss the letter at 8:01 this morning and watched his world crumble as he had to go explain to the chief i was leaving :twisted: (need a job though if anyone needs another dogs body)
Now that i have that off my chest and feel alive again , im off to watch Linkin Park play in London tonight and consume severe amounts of booze. Although as some may remember my New years day post , i will be in a cab tonight coming home

**Location is Belgravia, London. **(With a desk that overlooks Buckingham Palace!)
Current teams education ranges from GCSE’s to a Double Masters. Effort is what makes the money not the pieces of paper.
Direct experience is not required (In fact I prefer to train people who are not from the industry as I don’t have to untrain any bad habits or preconceptions)

PS: My teams also just won the global sales award for 2007 (Here is Jimmy Carr presenting me the award two weeks ago at our Informa Awards ceremony :cheers: ) - So as far as team in the global businesses go, my guys rock! :mrgreen:
Not bad considering we employ over 10,000 around the world…
(And recruiting someone without going through an agency saves me £4000 so I will certainly take the time to see anyone that is suitable)
