Jason and Ed's reign of terror comes to end

Big Cat directors Nick Morgan and Anthony Tattum are back from their respective holidays to bring to an end Jason Liggitt and Ed King's terranical autocracy.

In their absence, many staff complained of Jason's robust attitude towards motivation with the Big Cats getting particularly annoyed with his insistance on horse whipping and shouting "work faster/harder".

Ed has been accused of gaffer taping staff member's faces to their computer screens in bid to stop to distractions. He was also seen sticking everyones chairs and computer screens to the ceiling claiming " if you can work upside down, you can work the right way up"; never a truer word spoken.

This is actually a splinter blog as we were all made to sign gagging orders to stop us squeeling, in fact this blog will explode immediately after you have finished reading this.

Mel comes out of the cold

Mel Sirrett has finally been assigned a friend to come and sit with her. The move was brought about to raise Mel's plummeting spirit after being ditched by the PR department.

Rebecca Lawson is the latest person to be sat opposite Mel and William Hill have her at 2-1 to move or leave the company within the next week and 4-1 each way.

The move allows Katy Brookes to move away from the undesirable spot right next to the door that she has been working from since her arrival a month ago.

PR department move .... 3 yards away from their original places

Big Cat's incredible, future award winning PR department have up sticks and moved several feet to the neighbouring table island, leaving Mel Sirrett cold and alone, again.

The move follows Ed King's nose bleed inducing move to the design studio, that has threatened to tear apart the company at the seams. Despite designs protestations, Ed moved in untroubled and has enjoyed working in his windowless pod that Jason Liggett built for him to avoid conversation.

Kenny Laurie and Natalie Hartland's move has been traumatic for all especially Mel who has a nasty habit of making her close collegues resort to moving desks or even leaving the company.

The two PR cats have welcomed the move and have called on the company to build them their own PR office in space or on top of a big mountain.
