Capita

[webofevil]

The chairman of Capita has resigned. News that he had lent the Labour party around £14 million had led some to speculate how his hapless, meat-fisted "outsourcing" company had consistently won government contracts, again and again and somehow fucking again. He has quit in response to the "spurious" claims that his loans were connected with Capita's inexplicable success. That is, after all, how you can tell if something is spurious—someone resigns over it.

But the important thing now is to put this behind us and move on. Right, Tony?

IT projects can be very tricky - you have to be very careful what you ask for, otherwise it's like a genie and you get literally what you asked for.

So the clever trick is to ask for an IT project that will generate another IT project!

I temped at Capita for a week and it was one of the most miserable temp jobs I had (and I had many, many miserable temp jobs). Nobody talked to me all week except for one man who said something about rugby. I was typing car registrations into a spreadsheet for some reason. I think it was Capita. Capita, Capitas, Capi*tum*.
