The one time I've been on corporate induction training was back in the bad old days of local government in the eighties, when I was working for Loamshire. We had a welcome from the Chief Executive; visits to a library, a fire station, a disabled person's rehabilitation unit (that was an eye-opener!); an explanation of the corporate executive and political structures; and a half-hour presentation by the Deputy Chief Executive on public sector ethics and the legal boundaries we had to work within.
These days we're more customer-oriented.
Posy was subjected to an hour-long presentation about the Bobbing Up And Down Team; a presentation on the aims and targets of the Bobbing Up And Down Team; and an introduction to The Hexagon Of Excellence...
"They said that they'd had a two-day meeting to talk about the aims of the council and they decided that they are:
- 'It would be nice if Helminthdale was a nice place to live'
- 'It would be nice if everyone was nice to each other.'
- 'It would be nice if there were some nice shops.'"
"There, there... It comes as a shock at first but you soon get used to it."

I'll pay you my greatest compliment.......'I don't believe a word of it!'
And why were you skulking around in the benighted north when I was a young girl? You look reasonably attractive in your 'avatar'! Bet you didn't have those in 1950!
Hello Brenda!
I'd have been wasted on Brighton.
