MKV is a relatively recent file format, how old is your version of Nero ?

I learned again how utterly hopeless management is, both in the uk generally and at work. The more senior, the more hopeless. Utterly hopeless.

Cost savings that directly impact production capability, at a busiest time while complaining profits are down. Madness.

You must be able to make a fortune in consultancy fees advising big companies in a bit of trouble like Tesco, Co-Op Bank etc. You could certainly put them right   ;D

The very worst managers are in the public sector EG: NHS, very few good ones, AND they get very well paid  >:(

Rog how is Tesco's in trouble???....In this country alone last year its profit was £3.3 bn....ok they thought it might have been as high as £3.5 bn....but I wouldn't mind being on the receiving end of that profit....now has for the co op bank/group if you keep buying failing businesses which need bailing out (Somerfield to name just one) and as a company you do not have a unlimited pot to fill the black hole that exist basic rules of economics state that sooner of later you are going to have a short fall and possibly do damage to your business.

As NHS having the worst managers that's wide sweeping unfounded generalisation which I think you find there as some very good managers in the NHS....just way too many

I learnt that when you're on daily report, smile at the right times, say what the mongrels want to hear, and then you get taken off it.

Then you can say what a pile of old wank it all is with less fear of reprisals.


I also learnt that the youngsters of today lack the fire/passion/anger to put mgmt. back on track, leaving it to the coffin dodgers. Gay whimps!

Apparently excelling at what you are employed to do is a bad thing nowadays.
