@matigo I’d probably end up running someone a tableside wine bath.
@matigo Not quite! The route I’ve gone down (WSET), and which he’s signed up for, is purely theory. Leads to consulting and eventually the Master of Wine.
It’s the Court of Master Sommeliers whose exams include a service element. I would never do that…
Quite sure we treat our interns well enough. His last day, and our last day before Chinese New Year, so Champagne and a beautiful Super Tuscan.
I’d like to think I’ve inspired him with wine. He’s decided to fly back from the Philippines to take his first wine cert next month.
@streakmachine From what I hear in hushed tones, one of the managers in the room next to mine is like that. Never seen an entire team so miserable.

@matigo Quite…and unfortunately it's a small office with an open plan…and we sit opposite each other…sigh.
Forgot my afternoon coffee. Was in the zone. Then gorged on pretty decent and truffle-heavy food at dinner.
Now very full and extremely tired.
So much incompetence this week. Happy Friday, happy picking up the pieces. Damn.
The company’s Active Directory seems to be set such that a lockout on desktop logins from too many incorrect password attempts also locks out the email.
That’s fine, but their “24/7 hotline” is actually a “8/5 UK time phone number”…

Incredible.
Also, Microsoft.
