Guest speaker on transgender issues in the RAF and a talk on some new research about how lesbianism is saving the planet.

Anyway, I have to do some online training about how to handle 'unwanted sexual advances in the workplace'.....

Do you get many unwanted sexual advances in the workplace, p?

I should be so lucky etc etc....... there is no information on what to do with wanted sexual advances.

I did my GDPR training. At least I now know it is something to do with data protection- I was wondering why everyone was suddenly talking about East Germany again.

GDPR. You will legally be able ask to be 'forgotten' from your organisation's payroll system. How fúcking bonkers is that?

Still, not sure too many will take that option up.

I must have spent about half my work time, this year, on fúcking GDPR stuff Wenger out.

I am doing all I can to swerve it as I was being set up, without me agreeing to it, to be our DPO with responsibility for ensuring compliance etc.

Being a DPO sounds like a right, fúcking bundle of laughs.

I am trying to dodge as much as possible but we are having to amend forms, policies, protocols and Dennis knows what else. Plus retrospective consent for biometric data, etc.

For fúcking, fúcks sake...

Is the area of retrospective consent still not a grey one?

[Burney]

Is the area of retrospective consent still not a grey one?

It certainly is when it comes to sex.

[IUFG]

not for sensitive personal data.

Which is my understanding as imparted by our very expensive legal experts.

"better to have consent, than not" etc

Not kewl when trying to get a reference. "Nope, sorry, none of the two previous employers you cited have any record of you working there."

I probably should be spending half my time on GDPR quite soon. Will probably claim 'legitimate interests' for most processing and hope for the best.

Actually, there are limits on that. Finance records have to be kept for seven years and good luck asking the Revenue to forget you.
