Way back before Scott Adams went completely off the deep end I had a tin of Dilbert branded mints called Encourage Mints. This is literally a joke from the hackiest office comic ever yet some manager(s) still thought it was good idea. WTF does business school teach?

Company making millions due to its workers efforts, while rewarding them with practically nothing? Sounds like business school is teaching capitalism perfectly.

They aren’t teaching psychology in them. Stupid “gifts” like these are a net negative. You are so much better off giving nothing than a crappy gift.

As far as I can tell, business school teaches people how to enthusiastically participate in the capitalist circlejerk. That’s kinda it.

Every month my boss tells us how big a profit we’re making. I think he thinks it’s morale building. I’m guessing everyone thinks the same thing I do- “then I should be paid better.” My Macbook Air, which I never took anywhere, was dying. I needed a new Mac for work. I suggested a Mac mini. They cost like $500. And I had to literally wait until my Macbook wouldn’t stay on for more than 20 minutes for them to pony up the $500. God I hate it. I’m on FMLA right now though, which gives me time to look elsewhere.

My brain: “I hope you don’t mint if I quit!”

During university I had a part-time job at a business that sells coachings, seminars and online courses to executives and management. It’s disgusting how these people talk and think about their employees.

And it’s disgusting what they learned through coachings. It’s always about how to distract or guild trip employees who dare to ask for more money or who don’t work overtime. They aren’t even shy about it.
