Re: From Ironing Board to Board Room

[skully]

That's it, vilks. Capability not quotas. Nobody begrudges a talented person being elevated to a senior position but some may resent a person being elevated on chest measurement and dress size.

there is still no doubt old boys clubs operating in many workplaces and doubtless boards where dill blokes are promoted beyond their capability ...remember it is the "Peter Principle" , not the "Peta Principle"

[lardbucket]

So long as it's not the Victoria Principal

Most women on boards of directorship are the f*cking pits. And what I mean by that is they're amongst the most evil creatures on the planet.

I think being on the rag doesn't help
or if they're a bit older the menopause doesn't help
or if they're a bit older than that the absolutely rampant penis envy they've harboured all their lives doesn't help.

ludicrous comments above..I can understand BM dragging his knucles across the ground but am surprised that skully would risk his manicured hands being damaged..

the point is that any Director of a Private Sector mob is by definition a psycopathic turkey who shd be placed agianst the wall...gender is irrelevent

[skully]

FFS, you stoopid ol' qunt, lighten up. Gawn all serious on us all of sudden after carrying on like a galoot yourself for the past week, have you? Deary me, horrie - the arbiter of the moral high ground. PMSL. That is some serious NSR you've got going on, ol' bean.

[horace]

hehehe

I actually support the cause of feminism as you would have gathered esp re fam violence, expoloitation etc...but the drear upper class nobettes tho carrying on about the boardroom do not do it for me tho...they are nobs irrespective of gender

it is depressing that this is the best feminism can raise these days

[skully]

We gathered h, you'd clearly made your point, but getting all high and mighty will just see you getting the p!ss taken out of you. It is the way of Bails people.

[horace]

phurt...i have an auto system that does that already

[skully]

So you've got the double bunger - colostomy bag AND catheter??

[horace]

i am ecumenical

[embee]

I think you can let that out of your bag , H

Although it'll need a good hose down and deodorising before you let it curl up on your furniture

[horace]

hehehe...well spotted

Deary me, horrie - the arbiter of the moral high ground

Lefty's always try to cling to the high moral ground because common sense & logic is always out of reach.

[skully]

Sage. Just see if you can find a single straight answer from them on the Aus Fed Politics thread. Lots of "I couldn't be bothered dignifying that question with an answer."

[mynah]

or if they're a bit older than that the absolutely rampant penis envy they've harboured all their lives doesn't help.

Whoaaaa.... horrie, you have a good old-fashioned case of the giant NSR. But take whatever umbrage you feel necessary.

When a man or woman gets to directorial level they leave their gender behind, to me they become amoral, prejudiced, self-important, out of touch with reality, out of touch with the internal workings of the company, workshy and have one set of rules for just themselves. They abuse their power. To me, they're mainly qunts.

If I've offended your sensibilities then I'm sor.... go suck my f*cking balls you old, decrepit, p!ss-soaked harrumphy-type shitweasel.

Speaking from personal experience that's utter bollocks I'm afraid.

It might be like that at some places but definately not all.

[skully]

Why are you afraid, vilks?

[Guest]

Hmm?

[skully]

Out with it man. Speak your piece.

[Guest]

I already said my Mum used to work at board level earlier in the thread, would have thought it obvious that I resented the implication that she was "amoral, prejudiced, self-important, out of touch with reality, out of touch with the internal workings of the company, workshy and have one set of rules for just themselves".

It might happen with some companies/people but not all.

[Brass Monkey]

I said 'mainly'. Plus, you can't vouch for her from a work perspective, unless you're in the board room yourself. People usually get that far by being qunts - not all, for instance my current boss got there purely through hard work. But I maintain my position.
