Pretty sure public sector workers get sacked too.
We’ve moved from the original argument of “public sector workers don’t make consequential business decisions” to “public sector workers do make the same decisions, they just aren’t as productive”. Spare us another essay and let us know when...
2:45pm - The Enemy live performance of WLADITT
2:59pm - stadium PA plays WLADITT
Kickoff - fans sing WLADITT
HT - Kick It For A WLADITT
4:45pm - MVE fist bumps (to the tune of WLADITT)
So if it’s only people in managerial roles who ever “make a business decision of consequence” (your words), why draw a distinction between private and public sector workers at all?
What condescending nonsense. Anyone in a managerial role at a school board, local authority or NHS trust would be doing this stuff every single day. But I suppose they’d have to ask some 20-something MBA grad at McKinsey how things ‘really’ work.
The story they want is “the Championship is great so please watch and/or bet on it”. If you can find any examples of Sky deliberately talking down the Championship then I’d be interested to see them.
I mean, in the last 20 or so years Middlesbrough have been promoted, made the UEFA Cup final, won the League Cup….the atmosphere at the CBS is good and everything, just surprised it counts as a Middlesbrough fan’s best ever!
Not that I’ve seen any actual evidence they’re doing this, but why would Sky and betting firms deliberately talk down a competition that they’re financially interested in?
If a public service is under-resourced to the extent that key safety measures can be short-circuited by low-level employees then yes it’s absolutely the government’s fault?
