@ J's story...I worked for a short time at a backwater government department here in Antwerp, and the boss actually asked me to make the evaluations for my colleagues and me. He couldn't be bothered, and just told me to copy-paste the same evaluation ('acceptable' or something) for everyone and, if I felt like it, make up some extra shit to diversify the evaluations a bit. Then afterwards he'd read and sign them. He even told me that he just gave everyone an 'acceptable' qualification because he couldn't be bothered with the drama from either one of us or the higher-ups when they started askign questions about why he has incompetent retards working in his little department.
So yeah...I've gazed into the Abyss, and seen the darkness in almost every way but getting fired on invalid grounds. I'm sure that'll happen some day though, knowing my authority problems.

Example from my wife at work:
Starting this year, she has a team of workers she has to evaluate. Now there's one guy that's constantly falling asleep. Literally. In front of his computer. I don't even have to add that he's doing a piss poor job whenever he's awake, that alone is bad enough as it is. This has been going on for years according to my wife.
Now she was shocked to find out that he NEVER had been given a negative evaluation. He always got a 3 (on a scale to 5) which is what most people get appearantly, unless they're really happy with your work (-> 3+).
After a meeting with her boss, it was decided to give him a 3-, since any lower would be too much of a shock/surprise for him.
What? Gotta love corporate structures i guess.

So yeah I'm not surprised either way at much shit they are losing.
I think especially as a routine business traveller, you get very comfortable doing it and will be more inclined to not watch your suitcase or laptop than you are when you're travelling for private purposes. It's almost like commuting really...people lose shitloads of stuff on trains and buses too during their commutes, since they're so comfortable in it.Statistics: Posted by Rinox — Fri Nov 18, 2011 6:07 am
