I've a small amount of sympathy for some people growing up in this day and age of t'internet. My employer has a code of conduct which includes words along the lines of all employees are expected to always be ambassadors for the organisation. I know what that means, but some of the younger, more idealistic staff don't.
The last time that was said to me I said 'Well you can pay me ambassador's wages then!' as that belongs with all the other contract detritus of history, such as women should wear make up and men should have short hair. I know the Tories are trying to bring it back but slavery went out with the Victorians.
"ambassador" might be a strong word, but employers should reasonably expect employees not to slag off the organisation they work for, everything elese being equal; and indeed talk them up if they are doing things well.
Not that either Abdo or Benteke have.
This should really be on the Benteke thread but being as you are giving him grief here..
"Benteke's name is adorning 70 per cent of shirts sold with names on by the club, and he is over the moon with their reaction to him.
"It means a lot to know I have made a good impression with the fans. I couldn't be happier to know they've taken to me," he said.
"It's motivating having thousands watching you and cheering you on at the game.
"But it's even more of a push to know fans from all corners of the world are willing you to do well."
