Default Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?

En Francais!

I smile because the grim reaper of jobs that has wiped out the UK Power industry and relocated thousands of highly skilled jobs to France is now swinging his scythe in France.

I have had tears on my face in the past when I have been instructed to make 70% redundancies, knowing who has just bought a new house, whose wife is pregnant etc. Feeling like a right **** having to tap people of the shoulder and tell them to go to the boardroom, at the same time telling those who are staying to cut all their colleagues IT access.

So Schadenfreude, France has been untouchable until now.
