  • Never try and improve things, specifically things having to do with how your job, group, division, it whatever works. Don’t try and improve efficiency, optimize workflow, or anything like that. Just do what you’re paid to and nothing more. If the company wants things to be more efficient then they can have your boss figure it out on their own. If they don’t punish you for trying them they won’t reward you for success, so don’t bother. Going above and beyond never works out.


















  • It’s like a CEO heard a joke or saw a comic where this happened and thought it was the best idea possible. “If we add in waiting time for no reason then some of the people will hang up and go away.” It’s the same logic as making anyone who wants to close an account (such as Netflix) jump through 3 people and a million hoops.

    Seriously, I moved to a town where Comcast has no Internet service, I looked it up on their online service tool. They STILL ran me through retention even after they looked it up and confirmed it internally, and I had to go through 10 extra minutes of some lady reading from a script before they’d kill my account, and then had the gall to ask if I wanted to complete a customer service survey.
