A few years ago I went for in interview for a local government job
immediately after a data-loss scare. Apparently all local government
offices in the UK had been given a directive on data security and my job
would have been to manage compliance. One of the clauses was that
sensitive personal data was not to be taken off site at all under any
circumstances. Of course that meant that if there was a fire and
somebody died then all of the records of their next of kin would be in
the ashes. I pointed this out at interview and didn't get the job.
Apparently I'm too Bolshie to work for a labour council.
