if they're young, they probably have never been criticized in their life - so you have to spoon feed them pudding along with the medicine
after all they're used to getting a gold star even when they fail a test |

Next time, instead of criticizing your employees, try raping them.

Won't that be fun when all those kids start working?
There was a guy I worked with who was a micro manager. People would quit after a year or so of working with him. Some people are just not fun to work for. |

BoBro ALWAYS beats me to the "Don't get me started" picture! GRRRRRRRRRR! I'm probably only one of 3 people that laughed and laughed and
laughed when I saw those skits on SNL.
I need to photobucket that right away so I always have it handy. |

You people make me laugh. I'm pretty much a laid-back supervisor. I don't dictate when people arrive or leave for work, provided they put in their
usual hours. There's no official office attire or flair requirements -- people just need to be presentable to customers. And we all get along fine, joke
around, have lunch together occasionally and drink beer on Friday afternoons (in the office). It's sufficiently unstructured that we avoid hiring people
under 25 because they don't have enough self-discipline.
Still, when someone's performance is sliding or not improving, then something has to be done, right? By the time I've lowered the boom on someone, it's after three or four times of having said something in a more relaxed manner. Maybe I should just resort to writing memos that tell people to get their ass in gear or find another job -- would that please you Sucksters? Or should my collegues just sit around all day posting messages on stupid-ass electronic bulletin boards? |

It could be worse!
At least he's not making his employees wear name-tags. :: shudder :: |

I have a real ethical problem with name tags.

Just because you work in a laidback and unstructured workplace doesn't mean you aren't a shitty supervisor.

I need to bump that thread, I only remember the main point of it. (something about how some mom would rather lose her job and have her kids starve as opposed
to working with a name tag)
Who was it again?? And it was funny, right?? (sorry for the temporary thread-jack) |

OK, never mind, I found it. It's 18 pages long so I'm not going to read it again. I just read the first post and that was enough for me: "I HAVE
PRINCIPALS, DAMMIT!"
ok, time to go outside and play. bye OT /threadjack |
