- atmosx 2mo agoThat’s how the Brussels bureaucracy works. There is even a TV series about it.

- Bendy 2mo agoReminded me of a bit from the GOAT political comedy Yes, Prime Minister: "But he's the Prime Minister!" "Indeed he is Bernard. He has his own car, a nice house in London, a place in the country, endless publicity and a pension for life. What more does he want?" "I think he wants to govern Britain." "Well stop him, Bernard!"
- rob74 2mo agoThis is indeed what the current US administration is failing at: keeping Trump from governing the US...
- galangalalgol 2mo agoI would not have chosen the word governing for that sentence but I'm not sure what fits best. Plundering, pillaging, gutting, ransacking, Rick rolling, despoilng, or perhaps molesting.
- shevy-java 2mo agoTrump is indeed effective at pillaging. The interesting thing is that Yuri explained and predicted (!) this in the 1980s: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yErKTVdETpw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yErKTVdETpw

- titanomachy 2mo agoOh man, that show has some amazing writing. "Tobacco-related diseases cost the NHS £150 million per year!" "Yes we've looked into that, it turns out that if those people had survived they would have cost us billions in pensions and healthcare costs! From a financial perspective, it's vastly preferable that they continue to die at the current rate."
- imglorp 2mo agoAt $work, r&d once had a retreat with a consultant to discuss why our productivity was too low per some spreadsheet. The consultant was told how everyone is in meetings all day so we all stole time from our families at night to get any work done at all. :(
- brobdingnagians 2mo agoSomeone I know who did a lot of consulting said consulting was very easy 1. Go in and talk to employees about what is wrong 2. Tell management what the employees said without mentioning it came from the employees (so that management wouldn't dismiss it out of hand) 3. Charge a lot of money so management felt like it was very valuable feedback
- vntok 2mo agoAlso repeat the entire exercise every year so the company can iterate and circle back on the issues regularly.
- SoftTalker 2mo ago4. Fix a few glitches so cost can be justified.
