All customer service agents then update that case with notes of what's been done or any communications had. The reference should follow the watch and have stages so its clear, at a glance, how many issues there are and what's where.

I wonder if this is what they're implementing, or it's just better folder management in an ever overflowing inbox....
Exactly this. My work implemented a new CRM to do this so that anyone can check and update and job at any time. The one we use is totally customisable to your business or you can use what they give you out of the box and request changes as you go.
Perhaps one of the mods/admin team can suggest this type of system to the owners. Maybe even get them in touch with your company Guy to ask what system you have. Mike France’s comment that they are up to date with clients requests look to be wide of the mark.

I see that S**** has resigned his position of Customer Service Manager, without having another job to go to, citing work/life balance and that health and well-being has to come first.
I know I have been critical in the past of S****’s lack of responses, but I agree entirely that your health and well-being needs to take priority and I applaud anyone for taking this action.
No job is worth risking your health and well-being for and whilst I appreciate the undoubted risk of leaving a job without another job to go to, the risk of staying in a job that affects your health and well-being is a far greater risk.
I have been in a similar position myself and taken the same action, which was the best thing I ever did.
I wish S**** all the very best in finding a new job and hope he finds the balance he is looking for.
Where did you get that information?

^^^ Personally, I'm not convinced that we need that level of personal information on the forum - relating to a member of the CW team, past or present. I will edit the name to preserve some level of anonymity.

Agreed. I'm not sure any of us would welcome our performance and work decisions being discussed openly on the internet. Especially when things are not going brilliantly.

Whatever the specifics, the person in question will not be having a great time at the moment. I think sometimes because CW are quite open with us about things and we all have a close interest in the brand we come to expect to know more than we are reasonably entitled to know.

For reference the info came from a social media post made by the individual themselves, visible online to anyone, so they are obviously happy to discuss it online. But understand the comments made above, so happy to delete my original post.

Absolute tosh. Here we go again. The guy posted it on his LinkedIn account, so why the hell can't it be repeated on here. Do we all need to sign NDAs in the future?

Anyone can post what they like about themselves - and they are in control of it. However, if, in the future, he decides it was maybe not the best idea he's ever had and chooses to remove it, that's also up to him. When it's on here, he loses control. I'm just trying to help him.
