I receive an email from an events company that has long been
misinterpreting my “unsubscribe” messages as an attempt to be friendly. This email tells me about exciting venues in
London and wonderful ways to brighten up your office Christmas party if your
staff have become so apathetic that a cracker and a balloon no longer provoke a
response.
This email says – and I kid you not – that “business
meetings over afternoon tea are officially a thing.” Wow! I
am a Trend-Setter!
I am now looking forward to hearing that pulling straw from
a briefcase is the way to win a business
pitch. Although judging by The Apprentice last night, actually the
way to win business is to slap on hodfuls of makeup and lurch about in six-inch
heels. That is, if you’re a girl. I do not know what you are supposed to do if
you’re a bloke. Just turn up, I guess.
