Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house

Nothing was stirring, not even a mouse.

Lo! What’s that noise, someone quietly sobbing?

An interloper sat beside Santa’s fire

while he’s gone a-jobbing.

 

Stop this silly iambic pentameter; kids don’t go for that anymore you say!

 

“What’s wrong dear lady, why the tears?”

Fat, hot blobs run down her cheeks (and a fair bit of snot too, but we’re too polite to say).

 

All of us at Signal would like to wish you all a very Happy Christmas and prosperous and healthy 2012.

If you’ve seen the Chris Rock film ‘Head of State’ you’ll know that the ‘small man’ on the presidential campaign trail has a light bulb moment where he stops trotting out the prepared corporate line and to the outrageous injustices staring him in the face, shouts loud and clear “that aint right!” Of course with the magic of Hollywood a triumphant election campaign ensues, you can guess the rest.

We’re having our own “that aint right” moment. Trawling back through the wellbeing section on our website we have written about stress, toxic behaviour, messy management and a plethora of factors that contribute to ill health, lost productivity, excessive costs and damaged performance on numerous occasions.
