That could of been Leigh Wood, she had her head up her own a**e.
I went into a meeting with her because I was not part of operations, the operational people were not invited because a couple of techs had handed her their notice and told her where to stick her job previously.
She was really enjoying herself saying what a good job her and Barclay and Terry Ryan were doing, she was giving herself a good old ntl pat on the back.
I brought up the subject about a lot of good network techs and other technical people leaving at the time, I mentioned how the company was unable to recruit suitable replacements and they were having to pay more for replacements than some of the better existing guys. She claimed the new ones were better experienced and qualified thats why they were getting more money.
She then went on to say if people dont like it they can leave, she said to me "there are better people out there than you" I said "That goes for all of us" she then went red in the face and abruptly closed the meeting. That was the typical ntl manager, OK patting themself on the back but not wanting to listen to any problems.
I got into trouble because I went back and told all the technicians what she said, the network ops manager said I shouldn't of said it, I explained that I was only repeating what the UK CEO said about ntl's employees and how she made clear how much she valued them. I was always looking forward to another opportunity, because I vowed to have the bitch in tears at my next opportunity.
She left soon after to take 12 months off work to organise her private life, I thought after that meeting that she didn't really have the skills required for that job and she had obviously used some other skills to get the position.
