Number twos at Scotland Yard

July 30, 2009

The mood is not good in Scotland Yard's central control room, where telephone operators have been told to log (no pun intended) their toilet breaks.

Staff must log visits to the little boy's and girl's rooms as a 'code three' on a database.

A spokesman has said that only the amount of breaks will be stored, not the "detail of their nature." So no number ones and twos, presumably.

About Guru

Guru is Personnel Today's notorious HR commentator. He's been working in HR for far too long and observes every passing management fad with a mixture of anger and amusement. His blog is the one thing saving his long-suffering wife, Mrs Guru, from having to endure too much of his ranting about the big HR stories of the day.
