Here is a tale of woe in the “Civil Service” oft called “Silly Service” aka “Silly Servants”
President Obama wants to increase the ranks of these highly productive workers and yet in Canada it is reported that the biggest health crisis of all is “depression among civil servants”
75 % of the executives in these ” high positions and jobs” say they are on the verge of burnout or suffering from extreme fatigue.
Disability claims among these government workers as a whole are climbing with 30 to 40 % estimated to be for depression. Indeed mental health claims doubled between the years 1997 and 2007 and now account for fully 45 % of all claims.
What could be the reason for these problems in paradise ?
What is stated by the participants is that there is a quandry of meetings , distractions and more meetings, utlimately with no one in charge.
Go figure ! One might of thought that it was only in the private sector that one would have these problems. The civil service is generally regarded as a low stress , but stable job. On top of that add in unions , the power of union grievances as protection and ultimately early and lucrative pensions
Government workers generally hide behind the power of facade of government – the “crown ” in Canada . “Crown Corporations ” even though allegedly privatized , can not be held liable for their actions or damages.
So what is the problem ? “What’s the frequency Kenneth ?” . If you cannot stand the heat get out of the kitchen. Or is it too cushy and you are afraid to “get a real job”.
The universal soldier.

Some interesting points for management on “how to send a memo”
It might be said that the purpose of a memo often is to show staff “who is boss” or alternatively put to make an appearance to either pretend that the writer is around important or is around or in the limelight
In many cases ( if not most) , the writer of the memo should either of stayed in bed or followed the adage – attributed to Abraham Lincoln that it is better to keep one’s mouth shut and have people think that you are an idiot rather than open one’s mouth and reaffirm this. (paraphrased)
Here are some points and pointers for writing a memo dealing with “legal opinions”. Follow these and check out , as well as verify if any of the current memos that you have received or been the victim of have followed these rules and precepts ?
Remember the adage “I am the Boss and the rule are mine”
Its not all unlike a two year old holding in their bowel movements as a show of force
1) Don’t lapse into gibberish intelligible only to your occupational species
2) Don’t write in the abstract to “Everyman”". Picture your readers and write to them as you would explain the situation for their specific applications
3) Don’t bury important ideas in long sentences and paragraphs
4) Don’t simply restate a law or the contract’s wording. Make application to the question at hand
5) Don’t make the reader look elsewhere for contract details to understand the basic message
6) Lastly do not be wordy. Cut the legalisms from your memo; redundant synonyms ( last will and testament, maintenance and upkeep, null and void): ready made subject introductions that could fit into any number of opinions on the same subject matter , unnecessary quotes that you could paraphrase, formal -isms ( party of the first party) , plain old everyday repitition
The list goes on and on
Ultimately it must be always remembered and noted – most memos are seldom read or at the best given one short cursory look over
It is as if the person the person who writes the memo does so to hear themselves “talk” not to make any valid or useful point or add value to the conversation or to the world
