A few years ago, the company I worked for was trying to get staff to voluntarily change contracts, relinquishing company cars, free fuel, etc, etc on the promise of shares for a forthcoming IPO; I was having none of it, leading to some serious conflict with management.

In the midst of all the threats made to get me to sign-up to the change, management and HR were happily emailing each other about exactly what they thought of myself and other staff, how we could be dealt with, and so on.

I never did get the chance to ask how my manager felt having hit send only to have to hurriedly phone up and ask me to not read the wrongly CC'd email :-)

I'm sure Paris keeps track of everything in her big inbox.

My father always called this "Cockpit error." Obviously the classic "Loose nut behind the wheel" applies too.

Or, for that matter, "Stepping on your own dick," a favorite of some ex-colleagues. :)

Have they done one with a list of Dumbass' sock puppets?

I'd really like to know how the governments of Europe were suborned.

If you're going to be outed as an informant, better a white collar fraud case than a mafia murder one.

Reg, who wasn't so lucky.

Here come the black helicopters….
