Just been looking at a few jobs. Clicked on one with a fairly bland title, thought I could maybe do it.
Job description includes: "ensure full alignment exists across all interface points. Identifying opportunities for process & procedural improvement to provide the most optimum & efficient processes."

OK

I can do that with my hands tied behind my back.

Liiink so we can point and laugh, and their website admin person will wonder why the traffic spike, do some digging around, and see this thread?

well I'd rather not link but I can't imagine many sites use exaclty those words in that order
Unless it's lifted straight from pg 41 of the Manager's Little Book of Crap, which give us such gems as "we no longer say "from now on" or "in future". "Moving forward" is the phrase to use, moving forward".

"ensure full alignment exists across all interface points. Identifying opportunities for process & procedural improvement to provide the most optimum & efficient processes."

Sounds like a co-ordinating business improvement role.

Basically make sure people are doing things in the least time consuming way while getting the job done and make sure that people doing different jobs don't use processes that conflict with eachother.

Management speak - definitely.
Hard to do - nah, piece of cake as long as you have an ounce of common sense (and a knowledge of the business area)

StealthPolarBear · 16/06/2011 14:33

that's me out then - no common sense :o

OP posts:
StealthPolarBear · 16/06/2011 14:34

and are you saying you would let something like that go out with your name on it?

TheMagnificentBathykolpian · 16/06/2011 14:35

I used to be able to, but I'm not nearly flexible enough any more.

Ormirian · 16/06/2011 14:36

Ah...... job is for a yogic network technician!

Overheard on train - people discussing conference programme. 'At the end of the day we can retune to items carparked during the day.'

StealthPolarBear · 16/06/2011 14:37

lol :) unless those items were carparked in P&T spaces :o

OP posts:
Ormirian · 16/06/2011 14:37

But clearly you need to speak Managment Gibberish to be able to carry out the role. Twats!

sparkle1977 · 16/06/2011 14:42

hahaha carparked indeed..... hi-bloody-larious

reminds me of the apprentice....load of bullshit bingo
