Inebriated quotes pt II

Overheard by a number of managers, senior managers and partners under varying degrees of intoxication and/or stress ….

“We need to make [the client's employees] look intelligent. I know it’s going to be pretty difficult, but not all of them are inbred; however Mark does seem a tad slower than the rest”

“I DON’T CARE IF IT’S IMPOSSIBLE, JUST FUCKING GET IT DONE”

“I know you’ve been working hard and it’s appreciated; we’re trying to minimise overtime working. Can you work this weekend? It’s quite important you’re around.”

“… Then the client is a moron.”
Said when the client had just walked in. He left the project shortly after that.

“We don’t really have a concrete plan regarding implementation. We can take a stab at it and hope for the best”
Regarding a multi-million pound project.

“I like black people. I just don’t like them near me for too long. That doesn’t make me racist. Racist is if I didn’t like them at all or if I didn’t let my kids play with them.”

“I really couldn’t care less about the project. I hope it is exposed for the shit that it is. It won’t work. We’re working in the wrong way. There’s too many staff. [The company] is just being greedy. I’ve done my time here. I’ll be pissing off on holiday next week. After that I’ll be looking for a new job.”

“If you can get away with less, do so. We’ll leave the tidy up to the outsourcing guys.”
