In Topic: What's messing with your groove?
07 September 2026 - 01:48 PM
Had my first experience of having to tell a manager someone's not up to the job I'm training them to do.
Said person was given to me as a bit of a last chance saloon by the sounds of it, having spent nearly a year with a colleague (who is the person who trained me when I started, by coincidence). Sounds like manager was absolutely expecting me to come back with the feedback I did, and I'm confident I've been fair and tried everything reasonable, but it still feels quite rough because he's going to lose his job. I think ultimately it'll be the right thing for him to find something he's more suited to, but you don't ever like to think of people being sacked really. -

We've just finished doing exactly the same

I like how she adds JUST a dash of magic or supernatural to this...like enough to seem valid but not enough to dip into fantasy. It gives it a bit of flair.
Is The White Queen the one about Elizabeth Woodville?
Finished listening to John Robins' Thirst: Twelve Drinks That Changed My Life. It charts his history of alcoholism and how it has affected his life, and whilst not always an easy listen his delivery (being a comedian) is often very entertaining even during the heavier passages. It's a very brave book to have written and he seems to have come at it with a genuine desire to help others with what he's learned.
There are two bonus chapters which are John being interviewed by two of his friends (one of which is fellow comedian Elis James) and they're a real hoot - you can hear the genuine affection and friendship through the gently ripping him to bits.
Would definitely recommend, with the caveat of it does sometimes get quite upsetting. -
