:-)G a friend of mine (before joining the police) used to be a salesman got a national removals company. He had a couple of large commercial customers around Manchester who ran big office sites for call centres, who had a permanent open contract for moving teams and people around within the buildings. The premise was that the continued change encouraged their employees to be permanently innovative and open to new ideas, rather than being stuck in their ways and their desks.
They're still on my list of organisations I will *never* work for.

DEADLINE....DEADLINE......you have just three weeks to get your entries in for XXXX Reimagine Challenge – submissions must be in by 12noon, on 12 February 2018.
Here’s a quick reminder about what the Reimagine Challenge is and how you can take part...
XXXX Reimagine Challenge 2018 - don’t let your great ideas go unnoticed
• Do you have a great idea which could help your team be more efficient? Do you go home thinking ‘we could make a big difference if we could find a better way of doing this....’?
• Or can you see an opportunity to simplify systems and processes or save money across the XXXX IT estate – but the idea needs a bit of investment to help make the case for change?
If so, XXX and the XXX would like to offer you the chance to explore your idea in the XXXX Reimagine Challenge 2018.

so did you put in the idea of 'sack everyone and stop the project'' to maximise productivity and financial performance?

That was certainly what I said. We wouldn't achieve any less either.

Good morning all,
The regular clean of the xxxx water storage tank will commence on the weekend of Saturday 3rd and Sunday 4th February. This will result in there being no water available to the building and access to the premises being restricted to essential work persons only.
It is not anticipated that anyone from xxxxx will need to use the building during this particular weekend, however please be aware that there will be no running water which will also impact all toilet facilities in xxxxxx.
Kind regards,
The Facilities Management Team.
