Jurgen Schrempp ridicules himself in German TV show

Jürgen Schrempp in his shoe shop, yesterday
No sooner has he resigned from the top job at DaimlerChrysler than Jürgen Schrempp has stunned fans of incredibly useless chief executives by signing up for a radical reality show on German television. The new series, to be called Schauen Sie Diesem Idioten Zu (Watch This Idiot), sees the hapless Schrempp take over the running of a small shoe shop in Stuttgart and, with filming already underway, the show's producers are promising plenty of comedy management and lashings of red ink.
In the first episode, due to be transmitted on TV station Deutsch Alle Scheiße at the start of next month, Schrempp takes over running the shop and immediately decides to merge with a greengrocer on the other side of town, having failed to realise that they are making no money because all their fruit is rotten! More market share losing hilarity is promised in episode two when Schrempp decides to load all of his shoes with pointless amounts of technology. Imagine the look on his face when he discovers that all the laces keep snapping and the soles fall off, forcing half of his customers to take their business to Die Blau Propellor Shoehaus across the street! With Schrempp now into his third week of mis-managing the business, German internet chat sites are hot with rumours that the rather rubbish boss is about to blow his week's takings on something called 'Smart Shoes'.
Although there are currently no plans to screen Schauen Sie Diesem Idioten Zu in the UK, TV industry spies say Channel 4 has already bought the format rights and is well progressed with development of a show provisionally entitled John Towers Buys An Antique Shop And Then Spunks The Contents Of The Till On A V8 Carbon Fibre Sideboard.

Being Dutch I'm getting a bad taste in my mouth when I hear the name of Jürgen Schrempp.
In his years of CEO at Siemens he took over our only national aircraft industry (Fokker) and closed it down.
F*** Jürgen!
Tony.
