As even the most cursory reader of the bloggo will know, I have a tendency to pepper my postings with 1960s/1970s pop culture references, and I quite often accompany my stories about changes of management with a quote from The Who's classic 1971 song Won't Get Fooled Again by spouting:
"Meet the new boss. The same as the old boss"
Well, in this instance I can't do anything of the sort, because the new boss is nothing like the old boss. The old boss is an overweight anarchist hippy with a bad temper and a bushy beard, whereas the new boss is half his age, female, and can actually spell. She has a distressing tendency towards Grammar Nazism, and probably doesn't know any lyrics by Pete Townshend to quote willy-nilly, but
Ladies and Gentlemen - for the next few days your new boss is Lizzy Clancy. Be nice to her.
