Getting the best from your staff
Wednesday, April 2nd, 2008
Some thoughts, serious and not:
- Don’t have long meetings
- If you do have meetings have then over lunch
- Don’t have chairs in meeting rooms
- Order food in for lunch, so they don’t go out
- Have a coffee machine, keeps the caffine levels high
- Buy nice desk chairs so your staff are comfortable
- Buy people who work at home a computer
- Buy staff who need them Blackberries, get them addicted to the buzzzzz.
- Supply the office staff with adrenaline like drugs
- Buy people second monitors, so they dont have to scroll to another screen
- Have all staff get colostomy bags fitted
- Have beds installed in the office
- Once working reduced their pay so they can’t get home

I like to read the thoughts of fellow Geordies. Even though the Geordie Lamp (why we are called Geordies) was first introduced to my home town of Ashington I will allow Percy Mainers in the club!
Ah but is that where the word Geordie was derived. There are stories like this:
The Jacobites declared that the natives of Newcastle were staunch supporters of the Hanoverian kings, in particular of George II during the 1745 rebellion and hence called them Geordies.
