Here’s something every office probably needs. Mine does at least. It’s a WTF counter. When the office gets just a little too weird, someone hits the button and it gets logged. It’s probably pretty easy to judge the day by the WTF chart. The button is connected to an Arduino that updates the status on a local web server. We can imagine a nice bar graph of WTFs per day, or possibly a pie chart with normal time vs WTF time. Unfortunately, imagining is all we’re going to do. They didn’t include any examples of the visualizations. Can you imagine saying something to a co worker just for them to promptly march over and slap the WTF button? Maybe we don’t need one.

I know plenty of times when the operation procedure gets updated everyone in the office would go WTF ?? ?? why did the upper management go and do that for.
seems like some managers live in a box and writes procedures without looking to see what real people are doing |

I could do with one of those in my work, first they decided not to give us a payrise this year, then they changed all the working processes, then decided they want us to work from between 7am and 10pm each day (8 hours out of that anyway). The managment then decided that any engineer which was deemed multiskilled would recieve a £900 bonus this year, this has now changed to £400 bonus to everyone. To cap it all off we have had trackers fitted to our vans, mine was done on friday and becomes live on wednesday....all this has taken place within the last few weeks. Our company posted a the first loss since it was privitised 20 odd years ago, our Big boss got a £349000 bonus in shares(which he can sell in the future for a nice profit).... Get me the WTF button now!!!!

I am not a number I am a free man.
Until you take on this attitude they will all screw you! This government introduced the Age Discrimination Act, in October they will introduce an act that says anyone under 25 who has been on benefits for more than 12 months who refuses an offer of a job, work placement (not paid) or training (again not paid or expenses given) will have their benefits cut. (The ones who do take up the offer of placements or training will not be counted as unemployed) What happened to age discrimination then? Why only under 25's? Because they are the ones to hurt easily. Don't get me wrong I do not in any way support people who sit on their arse and do nothing for themselves but the corrupt few who stand to gain a lot from the majority in this country have to be held to account. Please move this to LLP if I do it would be perceived as having an opinion which I don't. I say what is. |
