Possible Tldr; Define work
- 6f8986c3 5y agoPunching a time clock between lectures about how horrible and disgusting you are for existing from your company's Diversity and Inclusion group.
- ben0x539 5y agoSounds like the tl;dr is to hire that consulting company and commit to having those specific trainings for the indefinite future.
- efields 5y agoYou’re right. I think there’s a surprisingly large number of white collar workers who accept that their work is the whims of the next person up the org chart. A sure fire way to create an organization full of lost souls and suck-ups.
- gonzo41 5y agoThe crazy thing is if more businesses did detail value stream analysis of how they make their money and where the waste is, they probably could or would sack half their staff.
- hattmall 5y agoSure, but business isn't just doing what your doing now to make money. It's making sure you can continue to make money in the future. For that you need to have excess capacity to be able to transfer non-productive people in to productive roles without an extended lead time. People, departments, assets, etc all fluctuate in their levels of usefulness and productivity with ebb and flows of a business.
- pjc50 5y agoUnavoidably it is, though, because the person that defines whether you work there defines what the work you do is.
