Now tell me what sane person does the following:
- says to their company shove the well paid job even if you're offering me a leave of absence
- Overlook the fact that they're regarded as a hero by the MD
- Ignore the 250,000 share options
All just for the 1 in 12 chance of a one year job with Sir Alan Sugar?
Particularly when her company had said they'd be happy if she took a sabbatical and would take her back!
She waffled on about reviewing her options after the show...maybe she's trying to take James Max's niche in The Times for next year's Apprentice?
If she's reviewing her options she cut one straight out didn't she?
Interestingly she was honest enough to say that some people left her company when she was appointed. Really I think that simply underlines what Sir Alan caught onto a few weeks ago.
Ruth seems to be interested in herself. It looks as though if others are unhappy it doesn't matter as long as the responsibilities she's been given are followed through.
That is the sales are made, the costs are saved, the tasks completed and all the boxes ticked.
There's no doubt that Ruth has the most impressive selling record of everyone on the show.
But you can be a salesman with lots of ego and no empathy, which is not a recipe for happy clients or staff.
The questions Sir Alan needs to ask are:
- can she can work well with the people in Amstrad's companies and with
their clients? - Is he only looking for a salesperson?
So who do I think is going to get fired in The Apprentice final?
...
The final is on the 10th May.
