Wish I Worked At This Place
Wish I Worked At This Place!I want a job as a bureaucrat. Specifically, I want a job with the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Investment (DETI) in Belfast.
The reason I want to work there is because they don’t have much to do. In fact, they have so little to do they make stuff up just to pass the day.
You’ll think I’m making this next bit up…..but I’m not.
The DETI has banned the word “brainstorming” because it was deemed politically incorrect because it is thought to be offensive to people with brain disorders. Unbelievable.
I did a search to see if this was a hoax. Sadly it appears that the DETI is serious: http://observer.guardian.co.uk/politics/story/0,,1515134,00.html.
In these days of innovation, a rich exchange of thoughts and public access to more information than ever before it’s sobering to know that some people actually sit around and think this stuff up.
Cheers
Brendon
