I used to work in research physics and recall hearing a similar story, probably embellished with each retelling. The version I heard had the staff complying with the order and working 9-5, then management complains that no observations are being made at night.
- goodcanadian 10y agoWell, in this case, I personally received the memo. Knowing my co-workers, however, I highly doubt anyone actually changed their behaviour due to it. Other, similar, management antics included scheduling meetings first thing in the morning and complaining that the telescope operators never showed up.
- quantumhobbit 10y agoHaha. I have no problem believing that this has happened at several different observatories.
- mintplant 10y agoI mean, this is the internet—it could very well be the same one!
