Solution 1: Not gonna happen. The self-centered scum keep expecting and demanding more. Solution 3: Not gonna happen. The lower echelon would be happy to go about it but a director who still has a chance at further promotion (and payments to make on the car and house) isn't going to jeopardise it all. Solution 2: Abso-fuggin-lutely. A brief public service announcement campaign could do wonders. Charge the idiots the full costs plus a fine. That'll work well and the crap tabloids will have a hard time complaining about such a scheme. And yes, it needed to be said. Unfortunately you're too low on the totem pole to say so with impunity.
