Bad bosses?

Royal Navy sailors should have been left to the mercy of the fearsome USN Shore Patrol!

Disgrace.

RJS They’re not sailors, they are pirates! Have them walk the plank lol.

Those individual matelots who act like this, whatever their nationality, are not representative of the whole crew of a ship which could be in the hundreds or thousands. The majority do not act like this drunken minority but their ship, and all who sail in it, are tarred by the same brush as the drunken yobs. The navy can do without them and just because they might be called upon to defend us is no excuse for their behaviour.

I had a brief, but colorful career in the United States Navy (25 years); sounds like a typical Saturday night in any of many ports I’ve been to!

Russ Haupt We have the developed world’s most skilled workforce, but still the economy struggles and ‘low levels of management quality’ could be one reason why, writes John Mclellan.

I have worked over 25 years in other countries and what stands out about Scottish business managers (not all, but many) is a lack of ambition and scope. A sense that being “comfortable is enough”. Instead, I meet a lot of excellent Scots managers who have moved south or overseas for what they see are better opportunities.
