Go on, change it! Make Ruth happy.

I’d change it for you but my finger might slip and I’ll type “prat” and then I’ll be in big trouble

I’ve deleted it for you, Ruthio.

@swimfeeders

It needs a top to bottom overhaul and someone who knows what they are doing to organise it.

I agree wholeheartedly. A decent team of Lean Manufacturing practitioners would save the tax payer hundreds of millions a year.

Oh, you’re related?

In today’s MoS:

Whitehall roles offered on 'flexible' basis - despite drive to end WFH

and there’s more:

Rees-Mogg implies civil servants working from home could see lower pay

Further to my post 43 about Lean Manufacturing practitioners, I would like to see what the organisational hierarchical pyramid structures are within each department of the London-based Ministries. I suspect that they are very steep compared to manufacturings’ rather wide-based managerial structures.

I’m not a civil servant, thank gawd, they get treated appallingly by their employers and are everyone’s whipping boy

But I do work closely with them sometimes and I penned them a Sir Humphry email reply in case they ever get a note from Rees Moggs! It cheered them up a bit!

Good Evening Jacob

Thank you for your paper note, which I popped in the recycling. Just a thought, but maybe an email might be a greener, more modern way of sending a greeting next time and less wasteful of resources?

I’m sorry I wasn’t at this desk when you visited, perhaps you’re not aware but this office practices hot desking and we don’t have the luxury of a fixed desk and office in the way MPs do, so I was working elsewhere

Was it a social call, to check on my whereabouts or did you have a specific need to see me?

Anyway, what a nuisance for you, and it’s so important isn’t it, that we avoid wasting time and money? And that we make full use of all the modern technology resources we are provided with at the taxpayers expense

So perhaps when if you have a specific business need to see me you it would be helpful to you to check my whereabouts and availability by phone, emails, TEAMs or my online diary?

That would mean you wouldn’t have to leave your own expensive desk and office empty and underused and you wouldn’t have to waste your taxpayer paid for time on a fruitless journeys and leaving notes which would free you up more time for your own valuable work
