    Never mess your auditor around

    Never

      Stephen, is there a story that goes with that comment? Do tell!

        Well….

        One of our QA guys once got caught selling our “rejected” products on ebay

        One of our former storemen got caught with so many stolen goods the axle on his car was in danger of snapping

          In fact it was amazing how many of our “Trusted” staff were on the fiddle and got caught

          One of my relatives working at the same place as I would break a tool costing 10 quid and order a replacement costing 50 through the company tool replacement.

          To be fair they were his tools he was using and they did get worn out during his work, but well…..there’s a difference between a 10 quid hammer and a 50 quid hammer

          Maybe it had something to do with paying most people all the same wage as everyone else on the shopfloor despite the extra responsibilities

          It was also amazing how much white printer paper went missing from the offices too

          One of the supervisors even got caught ringing up premium rate phone lines(for a holiday voucher) on the store telephone

          To be fair, he’d given up his days of being an armed robber once he’d been released from prison (he’d been caught) and joined the company though. Nice lad, I suppose I miss him a bit

    Well, I guess this was the only way she was going to get to do her job.

    Nice work, Intercom.

      Nothing says what a bunch of worthless incompetents like not being able to get in the door for your scheduled appointment

      It could have been worse though: – it could have been a financial backer or major shareholder getting messed around instead of the auditor

      So yup, The Mighty Intercom has really screwed up
