Jobsworths!

August 20, 2008

Wikipedia description ‘A jobsworth is a person who uses his or her job description in a deliberately un-cooperative way, or who seemingly delights in acting in an obstructive or unhelpful manner’.

Sometimes I honestly think that I am a magnet for the worst segment of society – jobsworths!  Currently I am trying to rent an apartment in Manchester, there are hundreds of letting and estate agents in the area and I have contacted most of them.  Has anyone actually managed to help me?  No.  But literally to the point where I feel like they cannot be bothered to get off their backside and actually do their job?!?!  Is it really that much to ask that they maybe do what they get paid to do? 

Then there are Post Office employees… these are an extra special segment of jobsworths.  In fact I am sure that only the lowest of the low jobsworths are given the privilege of being the worst of all services – Post Office employees.  They are so wrapped up in bureaucratic rubbish that they cannot use their own sheepish brain for any useful purpose.  Unless there is some rule or method of doing something that they have been taught they cannot work it out for themselves!

I always try to do a good job and in fact go out of my way to surpass the requirements of my clients.  Is it some much to ask that I could get the same treatment in the return when trying to use other services?!
