[QUOTE="soberups, post: 537322, member: 14668"] Its called "institutionalized dissatisfaction." Under no cirumstances should the employee [I]ever[/I] feel like he can meet his superiors expectations. No matter how well we perform our duties, it will never be good enough. Any action we take to correct [I]one[/I] contrived problem will simply create some [I]other[/I] contrived problem. It is basically a way for mid-level management to perpetuate their own careers. Since they dont actually [I]do[/I] anything, their survival depends upon arbitrarily generating reports, statistics and metrics that they can then be in charge of monitoring and manipulating. These "accomplishments" give them the illusion of some perceived value....while at the same time making life a living hell for the employees who are forced to jump thru an endless series of hoops for no other reason than to make their sup "look good on paper." The management creed; "I generate reports, therefore I exist and provide value to the company." [/QUOTE]
