Feeling stressed?


"A COUNCIL have come under fire after they cut their care budget for the elderly - and introduced free massage sessions for their workers. Fife Council staff are being offered the expensive pampering sessions in a bid to cut absenteeism. The council have also been criticised recently for splashing out public money on other staff freebies such as lunches at top hotels, manicures, head massages and tarot card readings."

Mmmmmmm.

Carnegie is beginning to understand why Fife Council's taxpayers get such a raw deal. Looking after the welfare of employees is great, but so is the Council running itself properly. The first is not more important than the second. What about the stress levels of Fife residents?
