This blogpost was changed on January 9 to properly attribute the first set of quotes, by a Customs and Excise spokesman. These had previously been attributed, incorrectly, to a Unipart spokesman.
Management consultants are traditionally about as welcome among the general workforce of a company as an outbreak of gastric flu.
And the reputation of the profession has not been notably boosted by the work of consultants at a major Customs and Revenue office in north Tyneside, a project which chiefly seems to consist of showing staff how to tidy their desks.
According to the Newcastle Journal, consultants have been making workers at the Longbenton complex use black tape to mark out correct places on their desks for keyboards, staplers and the like, allowing them to be easily reached.
The newspaper provides a handy photograph of such a new model desk.
