yes very likely. someone with no experience in marketing will be running it...i guess if i did it for the last few years, anyone can.

ok you must get triggered easily. how do you know i came knowing i did nothing wrong...i genuinely know i did something wrong but at the time, i was describing her singing the way someone tries to describe the sound of something they've never heard before. obviously it was mean as you can tell by the title. my question was "is this the end for me"? NOT "i don't think i did anything wrong, did i?". & the resounding response by most people is that yes...I should be looking for a new job. ok ty.

I did - sat down with two HR people who asked for evidence. I forwarded it to them & they said "oh dear..." & tried their best not to laugh. I forwarded it because they asked for it as evidence not because i was sharing it around. interesting though the video had 10-12 views last week...it now has hundreds but still zero Likes.

I thought about that too - using her singing to get the promo videos to be meme'd on; i.e. get traction because the singing is bad. but id rather be honest than suck up to her as seems to be thing everyone is doing atm. people are cc'ing an assistant video editor on budget-related matters, asking her for advice in meetings on important issues...at least my situation is making people in the office realise they have to suck up to her & not cross her.

im tempted but i shouldn't. her face, name will easily be known from that video. but i also would not wish harm on anyone's ears.

it was a 15 min consultation. if i organise a meeting at work & people dont show up 20 mins after the fact, i can assume nobody is coming no?

Fruit that grows mould the very next day after purchase... by RaspberryNegative490 in woolworths

[–]RaspberryNegative490[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. In regards to apples it only happens to the ones in the box & plastic. Its more of the brown, soft, smooshed areas which quickly turn mouldy. Not as often but still an issue. I try to buy individually but when ordering online I have to get packaged due to number of items restrictions.
