Corporate Animal 2 & 3

Corporate animal 2

The ferret is one 'animal' who is also present in the staff room. There may not be many of them as they have to befriend those around them and dig out external information eg what their colleagues do outside the school, their interest, etc and then feed back to the school leaders who would lap up all the information whiohc could be used later.


Corporate animal 3

The termite is like the ferret as they dig for information. They rank lower than the ferret. Unlike the ferret, they looked for information which are left behind by their colleagues eg information files, unwanted notes, etc.
These office spies would invade their colleagues' privacy and then unload their collected information at appropriate time in their climb towards the top.
Who are they? Those aspiring to move up the ladder in a short time and are usually trying to be the leader's pet. They can be anybody around you!!!!
