You all have, at some time, worked with a Dipstick, or clueless boss, my story concerns just that, his name was Teflon because if things went pear shaped nothing stuck to him.
Large commercial job in Canada, refurbish some offices, all materials shipped out so no worries, hmm hmm, any way Teflon is holding a pre start discussion, any questions, me what height do you want the 3 compartment trunking? him what do you think? me makes no odds really, him OK floor level please Pete, oh and don't forget to leave space for the carpet tiles, me go and get 6 eggs and you can teach me to suck them, well my philosophy is start as you mean to right from the start, didn't work in this case.
10 weeks later job nearly finished 43 lengths of MK 3 compartment all done wired tested certified just a few finishing touches, Teflon decides he is going to the local furniture store with the office girls to buy the furniture, fancied himself as a bit of a ladies man did Teflon. Furniture turns up, start to put it in place, oh flipping heck the desks have all got modesty screens right down to the floor, Teflon that OK Pete just move the 43 lengths of trunking up to dado height, prat, still the chippy sorted it all out with his jigsaw, never really saw eye to eye with Teflon after that, what a Dipstick move the trunking indeed, no idea.
