Nobody likes a grass, but it was Graham’s
idea creating the Wonka Bar…
So, the chocolate bar arrived on everyone’s
desk without warning or explanation. It was great to hear how the
Wonka Bar was received. As soon as the word chocolate was mentioned,
a smile or a laugh soon followed. One particular person said that
they were absolutely desperate for a bar of chocolate; imagine their
joy when the next thing they opened was a white jiffy bag with a
Wonka Bar inside! Their prayers had been answered - which was quickly
scoffed, I might add.
AND ONE WAS EVEN THROWN IN THE BIN WITHOUT
EVEN BEING OPENED.
(Their name has been withheld to protect
their identity)
Some ate their chocolate in seconds of the package’s
arrival. Others put it away in a drawer to come back to it days
later (which we thought showed enormous restraint). Others were
kind enough to share it out in the office. That would never happen
at CNC – chocolate has the life span of a mayfly in CNC House.
Some were super nice and gave it to their children. One was put
on eBay! Not one of ours (actually, it was an original Wonka Bar
cardboard prop from the 1971 film up for auction for £3000
and it didn’t even have a golden ticket inside).
2021 was CNC’s 25th year of being in business
and, as you know, we couldn’t hold an anniversary party that
year because of all the social distancing restrictions. However,
on the 9th of June, 2022 at 6:00pm we’ll be meeting you all
at Goodwood House, and we are really looking forward to celebrating
our anniversary with you. We have organised some lovely things for
you. So, if you have said yes and you are coming, excellent.
9th June 2022
Goodwood house is a magnificent country house,
with a beautiful history. Set within 12,000 acres of beautiful Sussex
countryside. On your arrival you will be greeted, served champagne
and canapes. We have also arranged for those who would like a tour
of the house. Thereafter, its all-fine wines and dining from there
on in. It promises to be a wonderful evening.
Some of you will be joining us for a round of golf
earlier in the day, on the Downs Course, renowned for its immaculate
condition and challenging layout. There will be slices, hooks, divots,
lay ups, challenges and prizes, so best bring your ‘A’
game with you.
All we can wish for now is for a beautiful summers
day.
HELP FROM THE PORTAL
IT security is always in the news, what with one
company or another having been hacked and not armed with the right
solutions. One thing you might consider as a starting point for
your digital security is two factor authentication (2FA). It is
a simple and easy method for protecting your workforce access security.
When you consider that the modern workforce can work locally or
globally, a zero-trust approach (never trust, always verify) is
a good model to start with, that every entry on to your network
is only allowed with precise authentication, with each access attempt.
Cyber attackers aren’t fussy about how they
get onto your system. Adding this level of security makes it harder
for them to access your IT environment. If you want to set it up,
we have included some information (Setting up Duo) in our training
resources for you to look at.
