Mr Bates vs The Post Office

[Bonefish Blues]

Besides she was quite a junior senior manager.

[Castrol for a knave]

But who held the pen dammit, who held the pen?

She must know she's being walked off a cliff. Pretty much everything she is saying is unravelling her evidence to the Select Committee and the High Court.

[Bonefish Blues]

Simply, nothing she is saying is credible, and a significant amount of it is directly disprovable. You've been summoned to appear before MPs but you are just asked to rock up and present a couple of things? Yeah right Bob - I've done stuff like that and the CEO has everyone in a room and you're briefed like you've never been briefed before - especially when you know the stakes, oh and you know your system's leakier than an incontinent buffalo.

Not that I’m aware of, so far as I can recall (probably).
At this moment.
Maybe.

I didn't write that - there's a bug.

Oh fk, that's torn it

Not a bug, possibly an exception or anomaly, remember?

I'm not familiar with those terms - I'm not technical I'm afraid. I would have relied on IT to give me a view and I don't remember their reply.

[Bonefish Blues]

This is genuinely LOL now. Amnesia International have been called.

Your boss asked her husband - surely you remember that? Tuesday's witness remembered that.

Interesting viewing

In fairness, I have little recollection of what was said in a meeting last week, let alone 10 years ago!

[SydneyBridge]

But she remembered earlier that a particular email was sent/received on a sunday

But this was a big issue by then. You tend to remember that stuff. I can vividly remember the meetings we had when a crane fell over, when a site visitor was killed, when we were sued by Greenpeace, when we were subject of a hostile takeover, when we discovered a proposed landfill site next to land we has just bought to put £1m houses on.

She's so stupid - she seems to delight in saying she can remember anything that supports her,................ but forgets anything that does not.

That must have been an awfully tough day.

Ah but was he only a junior employee simply 2 levels below board exec level?

She reminds me a bit of Bonnie Tyler - although not as smart.

And she certainly doesn't come across as the ice-maiden she was portrayed as in "Mr Bates V' the Post Office".

I suspect these senior people come into the inquiry with the aim to play a character that they think will help them. (note - the investigators were too stupid to realise that coming across as a bullying asshole won't help)

There is no doubt that the senior people would not be thick, you simply don't make it to that level if you are.
