It seems fairly obvious now that "productivity" and "satisfying customer needs" aren't very high up on the priority list of most organizations these days. liberranterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00555275410576294081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-43281739499125695102014-10-18T08:47:22.125-07:002014-10-18T08:47:22.125-07:00leeholsen: "...was told by my supervisor that...leeholsen: <i>"...was told by my supervisor that my work on a project was unacceptable because it did not include the changes i was given today and the only way i couldve made those changes was to be a freakin mind reader because i wasnt notified about them before today."</i><br /><br />I would bet that your supervisor is female (an AA hire, at that) or a mangina, as 'being able to read their mind' is a prominent aspect of female thinking (esp. leftist/feminist ones) no matter what the situation, professional or personal.<br />And they wonder why so many men have had their fill of woemyn to the point that they GTOW.Take The Red Pillnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-28169563816496757652014-10-17T06:04:36.497-07:002014-10-17T06:04:36.497-07:00That masturbation thing described most meetings I&...That masturbation thing described most meetings I've attended at a certain tech mega-corp that has "Texas" in the name....Phil Galtnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-6495364614324910312014-10-16T20:09:32.340-07:002014-10-16T20:09:32.340-07:00very jealous.

You don't earn as much income but you are the master of your own destiny.<br /><br />The only beef I have against you is that you think the world owes you an opportunity and that it's all private employer's fault.<br /><br />It's their own privately owned business and they can do with it what ever they damn please. You keep saying "irregardless of the outcome" and then you complain about the outcome when you are given the short end of the stick.<br /><br />The outcome of privately owned business is that private owners do what they want with their business and people like you are disadvantaged.<br /><br />Make your own opportunity.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-67391936814855829462014-10-16T17:06:22.038-07:002014-10-16T17:06:22.038-07:00Most meetings I've been in have been a complet...Most meetings I've been in have been a complete waste of time.

We had a cookout at our building last Friday and, after it was over, the chick who organized it wanted to have a "close out" meeting to discuss "lessons learned."
