More than careless

Written by 

Your canine crusader hears that all is not well within the work environs of rural lobby Fed Farmers, where a number of senior staff have jumped ship.

As reported in the last issue of this fine news organ, the departure of a senior executive represents a ‘major meltdown’ at Feds. However, one insider told a mate of the Hound that it has gone past a meltdown and is now more akin to a Chernobyl-like disintegration – with even more staff leaving Feds since then. Reports suggest that things are not too good at Feds and it may get worse yet. It reminds the Hound of that old Oscar Wilde mis-quote: “To lose one is misfortune, two carelessness, but three looks like a bad habit.”
