Massively incestuous too. Everyone knows random people in other departments. I think the best moments are when you all go down the pub together. A pathetic little coterie talking about whether such and such is an SEO or a Grade 7 and how that bloke you met earlier from the FCO used to work for the MOD and you were HEOs together 6 years ago.

I sense I've whetted your appetite for a career in public service.

It is an utterly pointless piece of legistlation, one that the Tories fail to defend properly themselves. Even taking away the bleeding heart argument, it's just a recipe for crime, this government loves the private sector so much it expects them to deal with 'illegal' immigration now.

"Raise your profile" - probably the most soul destroying office jargon phrase.

Can I not just be left to do my job, rather than engage in shameless self-promotion?
