[QUOTE="satellitedriver, post: 299708, member: 1664"] After reading your post, a thought occurred to me. A simple changing of the word "petty" to "efficient", in your post, changes the entire premise of your argument. (try it) You seem to have a bias against Taylorism, so I thought I would cut and paste this for you to ponder. "Taylor did not call his original paper "Scientific management" He sort of defines "Scientific Management" by saying what it is not - It is not "Rule of Thumb" when you consider that piece work based on arbitrary quotas ( and heavily biased to the employer) was normal practice. The use of work study/measurement to determine a fair quota was a step forward for both management and the workers." I am not a manager, but I am familiar with the terminology you use and the way you chose to use it. [/QUOTE]
