If so, surely he must see how vindictive, inept and manipulative some of them are? If this is the case, then it has nothing to do with a sympathy vote for Adam, but downright outrage that he is being ganged up on and led by a stuck up snooty brat. This is why I don't admire many of the others either as they appear to have no backbone and instead are like sheep, or pigs being led to a slaughter, if the last two weeks are to go by. I've never admired the ganging up and sheep mentality. And if any of my faves follow suit with Katie, then I can safely say, they will fast be relegated to the bottom of the league. You don't actually know that there is anyone in particular who first took against Adam and led the others, and if so, who it is. It could be Simon; maybe it was Paul. They don't like him and we don't really know why. It could be he is a wet blanket or is not good at fitting in or going along with them. Ganging up does happen in workplaces and when it does, rarely, if ever, does anyone stand out against it: rather, it is taken as reflecting badly on the person disliked and it usually has adverse consequences for that person, not for those doing the ostracising. |

As I said in my last post, they don't like him, and we don't know the reason, or how it started, or who started anything, if anybody did. Maybe it was a spontaneous shared perception of him and that there is something about his personality that marked him off and apart from a number of the others. We are too much in the dark about what is going on.

Sure we go by what we see on a one hour show....but isn't that the point? We are geared to what we see on that one hour show, and therefore can only respond to it accordingly. Katie is vile....no doubt about it. That is how the show is edited. Adam is an alright guy and is not vile...as his fellow colleagues want us to believe.....That is how the show is edited. We do not know FA about anything else about this show other than what they SHOW! So my question to you is: Do we go on what is shown or do we have to be detectives and go on what is NOT shown? So what judgement do we go with? |

I wish we had more inside views on the decision making process. Firing decisions have been too inconsistent over 2.5 series for what we see to be taken as the whole story. |

Let's hope what you say about SA is true, and if so, he will take out the most influential, attention-seeking bully of all -
Katie! I actually think that if Paul had taken Katie into boardroom this week she would have gone. (AS commented on fact she wasn't being taken in). She has been saved last two weeks by team leaders so can't blame AS for that. It is the dynamic of the game & Katie has played that bit well but as soon as she is in I suspect she will be gone unless someone else is an absolute total disaster. MB |

Comments here show that many people treat it more as a popularity and personality contest than anything to do with business ability or performance. MB |

Agree with every word pammi, but I want Adam to at least make it to the final four, if only because of the way he handled the hostile (and hilarious) reaction of the rest of the group! Still PMSL at Simon's face after his impression of Adam
Have to say I haven't been a fan this series, but that was the funniest episode ever!do you think bullying is funny?

victimisation
if Adam was not white and being treated like he is by the others, would every body be calling it racism ??

There's an article in todays Sun, which depending on how you interpret it, could give away how far Adam gets.
It says he resigned from his job "recently on good terms" So to me that could mean one of two things

That's what AMS's business is founded on. |
