It’s good to see Sir Alan back with his troupe of apprentices (or is that “ambush of apprentices?? collective nouns don’t you just love ‘em!) and with them comes the dreaded task each week headed up by a selected “project manager”. It’s good to see, particularly in this series, that everyone rushes to take up the role – not! Finally the apprentices have learned that to be the project manager will ultimately mean you end up in the board room every single week, in fact being the “project manager” means everyone else can sit back and do nothing helpful or constructive without being micro managed to death, try their hardest to screw it up for the manager (back stabbing abound!) and then whinge that “the project manager doesn’t know how to manage me…………!”. What happened to the role and responsibilities of the team members? Can you imagine this set up on your project?
Fire the lot of ‘em!
