Mort called a meeting this morning for the whole directorate to finally explain the where abouts of Death (Grim Reaper or Grimmy to his friends).
Apparently Grimmy has gone on secondment to the College of Angels, Seraphs and Cherubs as acting principal. (Now they tell us, especially after I made a fool of myself here thinking Mort had done him in

)
Originally the secondment was to be for about a few months (Mort thinks it was to cover maternity leave, but that seems unlikely to me if you go by Matthew 22:30). Now the secondment look likely to last indefinitely (or at least they have not told us!!!)
So in accordance with policy, they have had to advertise in the staff newsletter
as I mentioned in another thread.
Mort says he has put his application in, muttering that he should have been offered it first as he was doing it !!! A number of us have had to bite our lips on this one.
I have managed to obtain a copy of the job description (Attached) As I am human and a mortal being, I can not apply, besides I m only at the grade of AO, like most prophets of doom.
We seem to be living in interesting times in the Chineese sense...
Watch this space....
