To serve these purposes , and to complete the internalizations of the said employee it might be best for him or her not even to refer to these time periods worked for the organization not as unpaid overtime but rather as “commitment to professionalism” or “the reason you get your bonus.”.

Talk about the book 1984 with its Orwellian tales of doublespeak and mind control.

In the end it goes under the guise of “Be glad that you have a job” and management bonuses for their efficiencies at keeping costs and labor costs in line. Reminds you of organized crime who are able to run businesses due to low input costs – the goods have invariably been stolen elsewhere and have low direct costs to the said business.

Do they think that they are on ?Planet Zoltar? and have ?Mind Control? powers over you like on Star Trek? ?Beam me up Scotty there is no intelligent life here? is certainly the buzzword.
Power is often defined as the capacity to get what you want or the ability to influence others. Ultimately though in life most reasonable people learn that you have very little control and certainly very little control over others.

Yet this powerful urge still persists among many management and supervisor types. The same type of people who beat you up in the sandbox when you were 4 years old are now trying to be in roles of management.

In a recent study on what was termed “E-power? a team of workplace psychologists wanted to see whether having power changed how well people understood the viewpoints of others. The researchers asked volunteers to recall personal incidents where either they had power over others or others had power over them.

Past studies have revealed that such recollections had exactly the same effects as actually placing people in positions of power or limited power. If for example it turned out that regardless of whether people were given power or simply remembered possessing it, they were more likely to assert themselves and take risks all for the better or worse.

77 student volunteers to draw the letter Z on their own foreheads. More than a decade of experiments have shown that people who write the Z in a way that is legible to themselves but backwards to others have not thought or cared about how others might perceive the letter. On the other hand, people who draw the Z backward to them but legible to others have considered another person’s  point of view.

Amazingly it turned out that the study subjects who believed that they possessed ?recollected power? were almost four to six times as likely to draw their letter Z in a way that was backwards to others than those who recollected an experience of limited powers and abilities.

Thus it terms out when people or in your case management or supervisory staff have power they go on to make your life more than miserable.

Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

However can be empathy in the management role? Is this possible in the real world?

Highly unlikely. After extensive research in controlled settings it turns out that those who had these imaginary perceived power abilities were less able to judge emotions rather than having greater abilities. This is the opposite of what you would think.

After all great time, energy, training and life skills go into the choice and training of ?management and supervisory? staff. You would think that if anything these carefully chosen individuals since they are involved in the ?management and motivation of their staff? would be at the extreme end of human emotion perceptual judgment skills.

It is true in the end. You were not hallucinating or imagining it. Your boss is more than clueless. He is also most likely the type to say ” I have learned the gold rule”. “The rules are golden and they are My RULES’. How original. The mentality of a 2 year old.
