The Lawnmower has landed

Peter Rhodes writes: I asked for your suggestions on bonkers management-speak, as used by the self-obsessed candidates on The Apprentice (BBC1).

A reader is reminded of the day a new American manager took over a Black Country factory.

Assembling his British workforce, the Yank delivered an inspirational speech which ended with the memorable warning: "And those of you with grass growing under you, I am (dramatic pause) The Lawnmower."

The Yank was apparently surprised that all the Brits laughed out loud.

More Apprenticeballs most welcome.
