Bell Cheeses at work

[Weststander]

Nothing quite so dynamic. Think more slow considered 5 wood off the fairway then scan the horizon for where its gone and you get a better idea of the knobbery of it all.

I’ve worked with the type. Often with self congratulatory commentary “Straight down the middle”, or accompanying an air cricket shot “That’s a six over long off”.

Update on bell cheese number one from my recent post as I thought it perfectly illustrated his character:

He was naturally on leave during the crowdstrike issue leaving me to step up and brief his teams/work with them to minimise the impact.

We had crisis management calls which he didn’t join but then went into overdrive over the weekend emailing/teams messaging every couple of hours on whether he could log in.

Yesterday he sent me an email to say thanks for my help (nice) but the final sentence on his email to me noted he was off to some posh regatta I’d never heard and that his wife was racing in two events.

No prior mention of/no awareness of the fact it’s an utter irrelevance as we’ve never discussed our wives or their hobbies before or regattas before.

Just a small one to add, to a truly wonderful thread;

People who use the following phrase in Teams meetings, where it has ended earlier than allotted/expected;

"We're just going to give you these 14 minutes back."

Oh, and also a chap I work with who constantly pronounces it "and so now, without further ADIEU, I'll hand over to...". Not a major irritant, but still...

One of our consultants walked in this morning to speak to the FD about something, and a few paces short of his desk, said to him "may I approach the bench ?"

I picked up my phone and went for a shit.

Not so Accidental Partridge right there.

I haven’t found the right occasion yet on a Teams\Zoom call yet to use it, but with credit to The Clamp, I am waiting to use the phrase “What is this, Yogi bear‘s picnic ?”

I’m against capital punishment but for this I‘m willing to make an exception.

Just had an email from someone describing himself as a "red-coloured personality". What the hell does that mean? Gets angry easily?

I'm guesing it is the colourworks personality types:

Does this make me a bell cheese?

Looking at the helpful guide in Papak's post I think it means 'Bossy Arsehole'.

Whenever anyone asks me what my 'colour' is, I say brown.

Very reminiscent of the one we did, where a nonsense questionnaire decided whether you were a dolphin (subservient shitmuncher), panther (nasty, unapproachable prick), owl (smarmy bellend that thinks they're better than everyone else) or peacock (loud, annoying, self-absorbed tosser).

God, I remember that training course like it was yesterday and I reckon it was 25 years ago. Arseholes, bores, caring sharing types and pissheads was how I've always remembered it.

I did one similarly once and came out as a Peapanowl…whatever that is, no one ever did explain. Oh well…

We had on of those sessions where you put up on a flip chart the personality of other team members, I was amazed they put fiery for me so i told them to stuff it!!!
