An employee whose job was to be sacked | The Vision of the Pension Playpen

An employee whose job was to be sacked | The Vision of the Pension Playpen:

Harrods in the sixties employed someone to be sacked- surely the best job in the world.
Apparently  the employee was paid to sit among the boxes on Harrods top-floor smoking his pipe and reading the Sporting Life. From time to time a bell would ring and he would be summoned to a department where an irate customer was  being mollified by the Head of the Department.
