Freudian slips in the workplace

Who hasn't made the occasional Freudian slip?

The mind wanders, you're pre-occupied and before you know it you've said something rather embarrassing.

Still, Kitchen Rat is slightly worried about the founders of one hospitality company who admitted that the occasional slip of the tongue isn't quite as occasional as they'd like.

For example, at an induction for new staff one of the firm's founders meant to say we don't like short cuts, but instead said something that suggested they don't like vertically challenged people who bear a resemblance to female private parts.

Not the sort of introduction to a company you're likely to forget, but one has to feel for the staff member at the same operator who was told in a letter that their salary would be reviewed anally.

Might we suggest hiring a proof reader ahead of any discussions on the affects of the company's fiscal policy?
