If it is why do they keep those around that are milking NTL dry with high wagesd for sitting on their butts. BK comes to mind here as top contender for the boot size 12s.

It's not only the ones at the very top milking it dry :eek:

There are so many little empires built up in departments within ntl it's almost impossible to get rid of many of the hangers on that have taken up residence. You are possibly aware of the situation yourself Kitty, you have probably seen useless employees very often managers who seem to be constantly moving sideways when the **** hits the fan and their job is redundant.

Unfortunately the guys and gals often good ones at the bottom go out the door when their position is no longer needed, it constantly amazes me that some employees who were viewed as not much better than useless by the majority are still hanging on in there probably because they know they have little chance of surviving in other companies.
On the other hand there are some who are going through the motions with no commitment because they think redundancy is just around the corner, I feel sorry for the people who are worried about it but on the other hand I also feel sorry for the ones that have asked for redundancy but cant get it!

I personally think it's silly to turn people down for redundancy because there heart will never be in it again if they want the cash to go.
(I am thinking here about some of the older employees that have put their names forward in the past and been turned down)

Do you expect me to stand up for my wages?

Ohhh - you mean Barclay Knapp, not BBKing

Escapee - do we really deny our money problems? Going into Chapter 11 in a fairly public way of saying 'we're broke'. Possibly you mean before that.

Re: ntl:home restructure (again)
 

Yes I meant a very long time before that, cash dried up, budgets were cut and corners started to be cut long before ntl would admit to the big wide world that cash was a problem.

But I'm just cynical when it comes to the way that ntl or should I say CableTel has operate from day one. :rolleyes:

:eek: :eek: Sorry BBK I didn't think you would've thought I meant you heaven forbid not you. You work hard for your little bit its those who take lots for little in return. :sorry: Hope you will forgive this :nworthy: member for not making it more obvious it wasn't you.
:ghugs:

Re: ntl:home restructure (again)
 

I'm in an extremely whimsical mood today, just misread BK for BBK at first, probably due to baby drool on my glasses (don't ask). Never took you seriously as meaning me, as you know I earn every penny of my vast salary [puts last night's gruel on to boil]
