        <![CDATA[ So three weeks ago, I told someone that I supervise that they need to speed up their work and they should also read some quarterly publications to be better
versed on the industry.  Since then, that person has improved their work speed by roughly 3 percent by mainly by avoiding interacting with others.  They have
also gone from business attire to casual Friday attire everyday, leaving the complex for most breaks/lunches and departing promptly at 5 PM.

			<description><![CDATA[ I met with subject person and told them they needed to improve their performance, get more involved, or else they will need to find another job at another
company. So far, that person has been more attentive to details, more engaged at office meetings, and finished reports faster than in the past two months. And
that person has gone back to leaving the office sometimes at 4:30 and sometimes at 5:15 -- that&#39;s the normal pattern around the office, not leaving at 5:01
like you lunkheads. ]]></description>
