Subject: The Elly felt mighty important that day

... On top of her chair in her office where she...um...sat (can't really say I lay on my chair)

So I'm in the Environmental commitee here at work and have taken it upon myself to compose a short questionnaire and a covering letter explaining that the questionnaire is for the recycling sub-group to get some idea of how much recycling is being done by the trust. The other members of the sub-group and the chair of the General Group were happy with my work and I sent it to Trust wide distribution on Monday.

The response was amazing! We've gone way over a hundred emails (lost count by now) and people volunteered to join either or both groups. The awareness has definitely been increased and heads of directorates and divisions are contacting me for more information. I feel really nice, when I get a chance to, as I'm replying and processing all the returns, and I know that not all credit is due to me, but --- well, it's nice.smiley

goodluck Elly

I Elly, am very envious of you. Perhaps I should try a questionnaire next time when I want co-operation between workgroups and departments. There is no cohesion at my workplace and it's very annoying.

The employees only think in their own little boxes!

I'd throw them all out, if I could.

I'm only a little cog in the organisation. The people I'm talking about have been doing their jobs (blinkered) for the last 10 or 20 years. The can't be fired (and they know this) they are looking forwards to their pensions. Civil Servants are one of the first to go against the wall.
