But you do have to chuckle at his scheme -
I loved the fact he filed under beard one supplier because he couldn’t remember
the man’s name but he had a beard.

Subject: Fall of the house of
Pargetter
(with
apologies to non-Archers fans)
I’m
sure that many colleagues must be as gripped as I am by the consequences of
Nigel’s failure to create a functionally-based filing scheme (or even a
subject-based one). Given the resultant information retrieval problems
we’re clearly on course for a classic example of business continuity failure
for
All
this and the entail sub-plot still to come ....
