Must. Drink. More. Koolade
MegaCorpCH's Internal Communications department seems to think that employees are stupid. Or perhaps they just assume that we're as brain-dead as they are?
They recently circulated a message explaining that a planned move to an open plan office a modern office environment
was to enable open communication and increased collaboration
. So nothing to do with cost-saving then? (rolleyes)
Earlier, they announced the motivational
annual bonus. It is very nice. But, given that the economy is in inflation and salaries have remained stagnant, the motivational bonus
is stacked up against the demotivational effective pay cut. Last year was MegaCorpCH's best financial year in its history, and we can't maintain that performance if salaries keep pace with inflation.
I don't drink the Koolade because it's too sweet and it leaves a nasty taste in my mouth. Instead, I have created a special mailbox rule to optimise email management
and to assign appropriate priority to messages from Internal Communications
. And, yes, that is a euphemism! (pipe)
I am aware of Kool-Aid. Thankfully, we can't get it here.
