Having worked for EDS for several years I had the misfortune to work for Crapita through a partnership company in the West Midlands. The words 'Arse' and 'both hands' bome to mind. I feel sorry for any company devoured by this bunch of incompetents.

After a few short months I get my jacket and left (see reconstruction in green, left), despite being offered a significant rate rise when I said I was moving on.

Are these the scumbags who collect/extort the BBC tax?

I admire you Sir for both your perspicacity and for putting principles ahead of a bribe.

Good man.

So, they're looking for more worlds to conquer! Having made a mess of the CRB and the vetting of people who need to work with the vulnerable, we'll see more work being thrown their way.

Pity not only those who currently work for companies that get swallowed, but also the innocent bystanders whose data are "serviced" by them.

"Serviced" also being a well-known euphemism that would be understood by... Oh, never mind!
