It can be said that “there are only so many hours in a day”.
Take the case of one hapless employee / drone / slave who attempted to have an intelligent (?) conversation with a manager concerning this manner. The employee in question was a hard working , dedicated individual who saw his role as being productive , to cover the territory so to speak and produce results – and ultimately sales of the firm’s products , profit at the end of the year for the firm and ultimately a personal image for the enterprise in a most competitive industry , in which this particular firm was a pimple , a disturbance among giants to their competitors.
It seemed in retrospect to the victim ( the employee trying to make a simple point ) , that his superior was an abusive individual , on a power trip , coming off a drinking bender. Instead of welcoming the query as a general question by a loyal , hard working employee who he should of been grateful to have , the direct perfect saw it as a direct threat to his authority in the workplace – even though there were no others present in the meeting , or indeed from the company in the town itself.
The boss saw it simply as a threatening case of the “troops starting up”. In essence a direct threat to his person , his power and his prestige in the whole setting , his managerial position ( which of course the underling lived to upsurb and posess).
The agent of managerial power then leapt into a reflex action . ” Lets do a quickie analysis”, be begun . “How much time does an average call to a customer take ?”. When the employee answered that the depended on the individual customer. On top of that paper work had to be done accurately otherwise the employee / firm would be held liable for the cost and price differences directly. Again the manager asked the question – “How long does an average call take ?”. OK then we will give you a certain amount ( totally a low figure devoid of reality and showing no practical experience by the superior what so ever in the real world and with real world customer activities.”. “You are the customer’s door for these specific calls in the morning from 7 am to noon”. We will give you 15 minutes travel time ( average time of any journey generally in the worker’s experience was at least half an hour. On top of the walk from any parking lot – be it a mall or a downtown area from the auto in the parking lot to the customer’s location.. XXX you multiply it out . The manager proudly announced to the underling – “Do you realize that you are % 19.73 per cent efficient.
It was at this point that the subject employee in this fable and noteworthy tale realized that he was simply dealing with idiots. Wjo on earth would promote such a moron, as well as stand behind his harassment of employees , ignore a substance abuse problem. On top of that it the employee was still gainfully employed with such a record – then he should be terminated. If the employee was turning good numbers then the tables should be turned. It should he that person not the supervisor who should conduct meetings and instruct employees on the means and ways of their duties.
