Let's say you are a wide boy from Durban who has an auditing qualification and talks up a good story. You call up a certain BEE consultant with a view to gain all his business. A conversation ensues.
The BEE consultant being the disagreeable and arrogant fuck that he is tells you what he is looking for. You tell the arrogant fuck how you handle SANAS and you only had a few non-conformances in your last assessment. You are impressive.
The arrogant fuck (who shall be referred to as AF from now on) asks you about financial years and do you know about the most recent SANAS case. Yes you tell the AF, however certain codes like the construction code prescribe a financial year (it doesn't, wide boy was a little too wide to actually know what he is talking about).
One lime and soda and half a coffee later (which wide boy gets to pick up), wide boy asks AF how he can get all AF's business. AF says (in his best Kid Colt voice) "waal, we are now going into the ownership field providing solutions using share options. I can give you a QSE ownership certificate imminently."
AF mistakenly thought this was a generous offer. Oh no, wide boy is too wide for that. Not worth his time. He's a SERIOUS player, he wants one of AF's big clients.
AF - I can't risk it.
WB - Ownership only is not worth my while.
Meeting ends
What a useless fucking wanker wide boy turned out to be. There's no ways I am going to give you one of my serious clients when I don't know how you work. The people I deal with would probably do the ownership verification for free because they want my business.
Wide boy can fuck off.
