This is my Nick Cave nightmare scenario. Yep QOTSA did well against Beyonce and that's a tough match up. They're stoic, for sure. Hey guys? Fancy a tough f**king gig? Yeah you do. -

I'm not sure that I have ever thought of that before reading your post above. I certainly can't recall doing so Mind you, it would appear that I have compromised my own memory, so don't know where accuracy really resides on this one. Shooting from the hip now, I'd say that I'd have been able to hack it. I was a Building Maintenance Surveyor under the Maintenance Department. The directorship was for someone currently to head a new combined maintenance and development function department. So, the Maintenance department was merging with the Development Department, under a new overall name as the Asset Management Department. To cut a long story short, I observed many of the Development Department just cruising along, as they farmed all aspects of the project out to external companies eg Architects, Structural Engineers, - you name it, they farmed it out. Don't get me wrong though - all I ever did was farm work out, kind of. I did also have to identify faults with buildings and their services. However, my job meant that I had to know a lot about many types of buildings. The Development Department's job appeared to not necessitate having such an understanding. The Maintenance Department were continually having to spend some of their budget helping the Development Department out, as they had f**ked up their figures, or some such and had no money to finish their projects. That meant our budgets were reduced. However, that's not what used to enrage me. I used to get enraged because when it happened it meant that the tenants would have less spent on their property than was properly to be the case. The tenants had paid for the original sum that was granted to the Maintenance Department on the basis it was to be used for maintenance of their buildings. It was against all policies and good working practice It was wrong. Anyway, I went a little off course there above. I do think that I could have pulled the combined departments job off. PS - Thanks for providing me with that notion to have a wonder about.
