Talking Despair.com

Having a bad day at work? Is the boss trying to motivate you with inspiring management jargon? Look no further for the answer!

This has to be one of the funniest sites on the net for those of us who have leaders who try so hard to be inspiring but end up doing a 'Brent'.

Or my particular favourite....the pessimists mug!! Executive edition of course!

As I was reminded when working in Australia - 'remember leadership is like a tree full of Koalas - looking down its all smiles, looking up its just a bunch of a**holes'!

Cleary duplicating something that's already been on here is such a heinous crime that only hanging could be considered a fitting punishment.

And on another thread people are wondering why SN is dying.....

1600x1200 on a 21" monitor is hardly small. I just don't have all my windows maximised, I like to see more than one thing at once.

It is a great site, I get their calendar every year. If it weren't for the customer visits I'd have it up in my office.
