He thinks it's funny.

I can't formulate an argument beyond "it's vile and horrid and not nice at all"

What do you all think?

Not keen to click TBH.

Can you precis? What is it?

YonicScrewdriver · 24/10/2014 18:57

Our Team:
Robert - The Boss Everything he says is to be obeyed he is always right :-)

Bernard Crosby - The best Salesman and buyer in England ... why we hired him.

Guy Taylor - Marketing and Purchasing Strategist. Headhunted in 2014. Full Time with us now.

Darren Brown - Accounts Manager - Whilst he is part of the OAM Group he has however been a part of our business since it started and his advice has been invaluable to myself in particular, an 'honourary' RD member.

Paul Lelene of Offshore Asset Management - Keeps our bank and the tax man happy.

The Girls - They flounce about occasionally typing but usually just gossiping, hired purely to ogle at and grope when we get chance... joking they are the life and soul of the company.

Yeah, they are twats.

Very unprofessional.

smashboxmashbox · 24/10/2014 18:58

I am so cross

"The girls" don't even rate a name. They aren't worthy of individually naming.

Tbh even if they hadn't put the twatty bit about them flouncing around and the groping the bit about them being the life and soul is rather condescending isn't? There is no specific acknowledgement of their professional contribution to the company.

avocadotoast · 24/10/2014 19:02

Ugh, yeah, that's gross. I wouldn't want to buy anything from that company.

smashboxmashbox · 24/10/2014 19:02

Exactly. I'm so so angry I'm actually surprised at myself. I wouldn't really call myself a feminist Blush but by god I am spitting mad.

smashboxmashbox · 24/10/2014 19:03

Is there anything I can do to make them take it down?

OP posts:
SevenZarkSeven · 24/10/2014 19:04

OK I clicked Grin

What do they sell?

If they're not careful they're going to get walloped with a lawsuit aren't they? Someone could easily react adversely to that and argue quite easily that it amounts to oppressive working environment or whatever it's called you know the reason they can't hang topless pictures around offices any more.

MrsLettuce · 24/10/2014 19:04

That's fucking revolting. 'Share this page on facebook/twitter/google+' plus they say. Hmm, interesting.

sweetkitty · 24/10/2014 19:04

I thought it was a piss take because no half decent company would produce such drivel

smashboxmashbox · 24/10/2014 19:05

Isn't it vile?

I'm nearly in tears (and I really don't DO tears) I'm so ANGRY.

I'm so fucking angry with him for thinking it's funny too. He's about to get kicked to the kerb.

lottiegarbanzo · 24/10/2014 19:05

This isn't a real company surely? Is it some silly cartoon or something?

smashboxmashbox · 24/10/2014 19:05

It's not just me "over reacting" then?

OP posts:
MrsLettuce · 24/10/2014 19:06

No, it's not smash. Absolutely not.

SevenZarkSeven · 24/10/2014 19:06

Unfortunately I don't have much call to purchase wholesale quantities of poultry otherwise I'd be boycotting the fuck out of them Grin

Who do they supply they're the ones to complain to if it's tesco or co-op or whoever.

sleepyhead · 24/10/2014 19:07

Pathetic.

Mind you, it's a pretty poor website and their descriptions of "the boys" come across as wishful thinking.

Unprofessional drivel which makes the company seem like unprofessional drivel, which presumably wasn't the impression they were hoping to make.

SevenZarkSeven · 24/10/2014 19:08

Oh right your boyfriend.

He can't see why you are upset / he thinks it's hilarious / and is still insisting that even though you're almost in tears?

How long you been together? Sounding like a chuckable offence to me but I don't have any truck with people who think it's hilarious to wind others up to the point of tears.

smashboxmashbox · 24/10/2014 19:09

We have been together since July. He doesn't understand why I'm angry.

I want to take the fucking website down somehow. And I don't know how.

sleepyhead · 24/10/2014 19:10

Is your boyfriend associated with this outfit?

Is he.... Bernard Crosby, best salesman in the West

sleepyhead · 24/10/2014 19:11

Bernard Crosby

I have had a row with my boyfriend about this
lottiegarbanzo · 24/10/2014 19:12

I'm not going to click but, can see such a thing might be funny as a pastiche, more likely some silly advertising 'joke' referencing past times (but missing its mark) Is there more to it?

HappyHalloweenMotherFucker · 24/10/2014 19:12

Together since only July ?

Kerb him. Tonight.

he's not your "boyfriend" he is someone you have been seeing who has shown himself to be a prick. Least said, soonest mended. Move on.

sleepyhead · 24/10/2014 19:13

Actually, this is more likely Bernard. I think the previous one is probably Super MD Robert.
