Interpreting Job Performance Evaluation Terms

Good communication skills = spends a lot of time on the phone

Average employee = not too bright

Exceptionally well qualified = made no major blunders yet

Work is first priority = too ugly to get a date

Active socially = drinks a lot

Family is active socially = spouse drinks, too

Independent worker = nobody knows what he/she does

Quick thinking = offers plausible excuses

Careful thinker = won’t make a decisions,  logic on difficult jobs = gets someone else to do it

Expresses themselves well = speaks English meticulous attention to detail = a nit picker

Has leadership qualities = is tall or has a loud voice

Exceptionally good judgment = lucky

Keen sense of humour = knows a lot of dirty jokes

Career minded = back stabber

Loyal = can’t get a job anywhere else

It should be pointed out that the end result of these searched for terms , and personality types elucidated by these wonderful tests ( if the tests are accurate by any means in the real world at all)  , will result in a whole host of  odd almost anti-social, if not deranged individuals , who will be of little value to the firm or workplace and indeed will serve as dead wiehgt and a deterrent to any productive work at all.  One might think that the firm or firms are searching for the likes of Charles Mansion , the Son of Sam or the Zodiac Killer themselves.

Indeed perhaps they have had inadvertently hired the Zodiac already and he is standing beside you as  your very  boss.

If you do your research about much dollars , cash or money that you can expect to be paid by your new or next employer then you are on the graveytrain.  This can perhaps be determined through the interview process.

It is an interesting concept. Practice interviews.  Its not unlike practicing having teeth pulled or limbs ripped off or practicing hunger or deprivation .  Practice interviews and interviewing can be similar to “dress rehearsals”  or football practice.  You might try or wish to fine tune your answers to questions or work on your abilities to maintain a condition of aliveness.  You may need to try one one i f  you have not figured out what your next “bottom  line”  salary minimum is or should be.

Practice interviews can range from going to people to people in your field for advice to actually pursuing job interviews.  Either way will show you how to put your efforts and road map into practice before tackling the “real thing”.

But get all your practicing down long before you show up for your important job interviews.  Those are the ones that you want to crack wide open.

“A most interesting point of view”,   ” A good point to ponder !”   or ” an interesting point to ponder”.

All phrases of an  “discussion “  with management on the way , full of mis-truths ,misunderstandings.   You might as well say to the author of these stock phrases -  Why not just send me a memo ( now a blackberry text message)  and tell me what has been decided already ?  Why get me upset , and pretend that I/or we have some input when don’t in any way or manner.

It must be on page x of the management handbook or in an article read on the airplane that the management clone / fool is now an expert of  but in reality understands litle of the basic concept and concepts in any manner what so ever.

The amazing part of it all that they really think that they “are so smart”  when in actuality they are complete morons in any manner.

The difference is that they have the hangman’s hand on the pull switch which gives them apparent power.  It has been said after the First World War by a journalist on the origin of war and wars that they occur  when ” politicians have journalists write lies ( and the wars occur)  when the politicians begin to believe those lies”.

The same can be said of management , its great power and powers in itself and ultimately in its own correctness.  Why not ponder those points yourself.  Look in the mirror .  “An interesting point to ponder”  yourself

That is, only one-fourth of the American people felt CEOs were credible. I’m sure that what happened at Enron, WorldCom and Tyco and in several other highly publicized cases had a lot to do with this.

Reputation is one of the few assets that your competition cannot undersell or destroy. You can’t put a price on a good reputation.

A good name is like a second inheritance. Life is for one generation; a good name is forever. A good name is more valuable than riches.

When I purchased an insolvent envelope company many years ago, I ran it under its previous name for a few years until I was sure I would be successful. Only then did I put the Mackay name on it. That’s how important I regard a company’s name and reputation.

It is imperative in any activity to protect one’s good name. And sometimes, of course, that is difficult.

A frontier judge in Texas had just sentenced a notorious outlaw who had been caught stealing horses. As was his custom, the judge asked the condemned man if he had any last words for the court.

In his reply the outlaw said, “Judge, I’ve heard from everybody in this town how fair you are. A man devoted to justice under the law. A family man of good character. A kind man who is always ready to give someone a second chance. Everybody thinks you’re wonderful.

“But I gotta be honest with you, judge. With this sentence, you done gone and ruined your reputation with me.”

Abraham Lincoln had a stellar reputation. When he was practicing law, a client asked him if a certain gentleman was a man of means.

“Well, I reckon he ought to be,” Lincoln said. “In fact, he’s about the meanest man in town.”

Lincoln also was responsible for this gem: “If I were to try to read, much less answer, all the attacks made on me, this shop might as well be closed for any other business. I do the very best I know how — the very best I can; and I mean to keep doing so until the end. If the end brings me out all right, what is said against me won’t amount to anything. If the end brings me out wrong, ten angels swearing I was right would make no difference.”

If nothing else is sacred – your self worth as well as personal integrity should be.

Do not let management make “mince meat”  out of you in order to preserve their “sacred cows”

Your remain the same person that you were with or without their approval.  Their approval or pat on your head (or threats ) mean little.  You were the same person regardless – the same person who woke up in the morning ,who got in the car or bus.   Your intrinsic value remains the same regardless.  Resist the magic swoop of logic that somehow the minute you don’t fall to their wishes , or miss a production , sales or other corporate ( top floor ) target you are somewhow of less value as a human being .  Magic ( and most faulty logic).  Have them look in the mirror.  How on earth does missing one arbritrary target of their make you any less of a human being.

In many ways it comes down to control issues on their part – pathological on their part.  If anyone has problems it is them . Look in the mirror.  Look at your own order book sonny.

“It’s Company Policy”

“It’s Company Policy”

Many in management and upper management use the refrains “It’s Company Policy”  or “This is classified as a company perk”

Such logic and answers were dealt with and handled at the Nuremberg Trials after the Second World War. Reasons and answers such as “I was just following orders ” and “I was just a small man”  were no excuse.   Imagine this if you can – people are promoted to management for their skills and experience in making well thought good judgments possessing sound judgment skills and then proceed to hide behind such flimsy logic and reasons.  Do they think that they are dealing with idiots in terms of workers and shareholders.  Then again perhaps they are.

In many companies , sacred cows are perpetuated by the classic catch -22/  that if it is still around , then it must work , because it is still around”.  This is the logic of a former owner / manager of a disreputable temporary employment agency who when asked by a neighboring firm that his staff was pilfering and involved in theft of goods and cash from the second business , who now had to be on vigilant watch.  The moronic low life “manager”  apparently replied ” That is not so”  “We are one big family” “That could never happen”.  All the while the staff were involved with the sale of contraband on the side  while upper management was involved in some not well thought out interactions with staff members on a daily basis.  The comment may well have been correct and accurate.  In many , if not most cases , people use their family of origins as their basis of standards in their lives.  If you grow up with miles as your standard measurement of distance and speed then any metric measurement will automatically be compared to your yardstick of miles for measurement for assessment.  In the case of dysfunctional families , the family situation is taken as a yardstick and standard.  The staff members may well have been acting “like a family”  , even a cohesive family.  Only one problem that standard was of a dysfunctional families of liars , cheats and thieves were theft was a perfectly normal and standard fact of any “ordinary family”  .  The amazing parts are firstly why do not , apparently intelligent ( or in this case not intelligent) members of society cling to these poor values in spite of evidence that these are not good terms .  There are two answers

1) because even if it is a poor standard , you know that in the pinch they will “work “  to some degree and can be counted on

2)  the answer found in many corporations “  It is policy”  or “It is always been done this way”.

What a bunch of stupid morons.

People who take long spells of sick leave at least once in three years face a higher risk of early death, according to a study that could help doctors pinpoint patients with life-threatening problems.

Researchers led by Jenny Head, an epidemiologist at University College London, obtained sickness absence records for nearly 6,500 British civil servants aged between 35 and 55, between 1985 and 1988.

They compared this data with mortality among the same group up to 2004.

The death rate was significantly higher among workers who had taken more frequent spells of sick leave.

Nearly 30 percent who had taken a medically-certified absence from work — sick leave lasting more than seven days — at least once in a three-year period had a 66-percent increased risk of premature death compared with workers with no such absence.

The death rate was especially high among employees with circulatory disease or psychiatric problems. There was no additional risk of death among those who took sick leave for back or neck problems.

The paper, published on Friday by the British Medical Journal (BMJ), suggests spells of sick leave can be a useful, fast-track indicator for general practitioners, as they could point to an urgent, underlying health problem.

The tool could also help identify employees suffering from stress and high job demands, enabling them to get treatment from occupational physicians.

Adam Gets a Job

Let us go back to the very beginning . The story is a familiar one. “In the beginning God created”" ( Genesis 1:1)

We see God himself at work creating the heavens and the earth , all creatures great and small and man and women. Seven times during this account in Genesis it is reinstated that god was pleased with his labor. (“God saw that it was good).

As if to emphasize the work involved in creating the world, the second chapter of Genesis begins with God resting. “By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing so on the seventh day he rested from his work (Genesis 2:2).

You Are Working for God

You should view your life as a proletariat.

You are working for “God” and you should be as if you are a Hindu in a caste system.

God has given you this lot in life and you should me more than grateful and know your place as being subservient to the Brahamins and other upper classes above your lot in life.

Perks of Management

It can often be the situation – that bringing in an outside expert can hurt more than help.  Hinder more than any way help.  It has been oft quoted than an expert is any one 50 – 75 miles away from home. In these days of rapid transport – that is a small commute.  Luckily the high cost of gasoline may deal with this plague.

At least the scourge and abuse of high gas prices has one benefit – perhaps less intimidation and abuse of visiting privileges by management and “outside consultants”.   Perhaps now before they get in the car they will think of the cost of gas before they drive.  That is unless they have the perks of a company car and gas card.  Then it may be of their benefit to use the card to show their power ( entitlement)  and just as importantly dilute their own personal mileage.

A perk of management can well be said to be anything in the realm of management payment and rewards that cannot be justified.

Viewing our work as being for the lord then , it is not just a nice , spiritual attitude to have. Scripture does not say, “You really may be working for s miserable slave master ( a low life) , in a dreary and demeaning task, but you should be more than grateful.”. ” Take a more positive attitude”

No. You should consider your and our work as being for the Lord because it surely is .

What is the caste system?

The caste system is like a religious social standing system wich means that the population is divided in higher and lower groups. The expression “caste” comes from the portugese word “casto” (=”pure“).

The four main castes (Brahmin, Kshatriya, Vashaya and Shudra) are called “Varnas”, the Indian word for “colour”. The Varnas are split up in “Jati“. The Jati are subgroups of the castes, and depend on the profession of the people.

There is no social mobility in the caste system, because people mustn´t marry people of other castes. Hinduism believes in an eternal circle of rebirth which ends in the “Nirvana“, like our heaven or paradise. That means a Hindu has many lives and is reborn after death.

The “Dharma” (Karma) is his “account” of good and bad things he has done in this life. The more bad things he has done in this life the longer it will take to get to the Nirvana. His Dharma decides in which caste he will be born into in the next life. So the caste system is justified.

Obama Upcoming

In retrospect it can be seen that Obama could of been judged ahead of time-  if you or the average American had only compared him to any of your previous bosses , management or supervisors that you may have encountered or suffered through in life or in your work career.

First of all the guy spouts slogans – “Agent of Change…..”  rah , rah , rah

Sort of sounds like your boss – who knows little – has little experience but is going to tell you what to do – all with a sort of smile and twinkle in his eyes – the look of the kiss of death

He knows everything .  “I accept responsibility …..”  …………   ………. …….

Yet when confronted with evidence of wrongdoing – lies , evades and backpedals.

He / she / it advises you on proactive planning  , has you complete extensive business plans…… etc.

Big on self evaluation – for the better for you in your case- yet when confronted that he sat through a racist demigod speeches – news to me ….. I never hear this…… etc etc etc

Yet when confronted that his biggest friends and buddies had terrible pasts – bombers etc -  he was a fine person and authority figure in the Chicago community.

The list goes on .   Americans you have nobody to blame but your own foolishness.

Look in the mirror.
