Yesterday. At work. One of the many supervisors I have to labour under came up to me and said: "You're not worth the money you cost."
How's that for motivation?
I was so stunned I just nodded. Now I'm thinking...maybe I should rip her head off and piss down her neck.
What do y's all think?
ya either
a) Like it.
b) say "excuse me what did you say?" I thought so, and tell them where to put certain parts of their anatomy.
Black and white brother, stay solid.

Originally posted by shavixmirAt first glance it seems pretty insulting. On the other hand, consider the alternative. "You're worth every penny we're paying you." In other words, "you're a bargain"..."we're getting far more out of you than we're paying for"..."we've really pulled one over on you by convincing you to work more than what's truly warrented by your measley paycheck".

I dunno. The way I see it, you're winning. All she really did was tell you the score.
Originally posted by shavixmirShe had to say that. It's both politically incorrect and illegal to say "I wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire."

Sad how the world has changed...
I've had two bad evaluations where I thought I would get fired. Both I felt were unjustified. One of my bosses later came back to me and said he owed me an apology and that the more he found out the more he realized I was screwed over by the evaluation. The other never did. But in both cases I decided to be proactive and return to them and say, "this was what I heard from your feedback and this is what I've done to address it." I also documented everything I did and worked closer to colleagues as they could vouch for my work. Yea, I had to swallow my pride, but a paycheck puts food on the table.
I have teh gratest job, EVAR, shav, if you're a college grad you should try it. (Or maybe being a grad isn't even a requirement in Scotland)
I am a substitute high skool teechar. It pays $25 per hour, and all I do is take roll, tell teh kids to do the assignment left by the real teechar, and after about 15 minutes, I tell the kiddies that if they're finished, I will whip their ass at chess, which I do for the rest of teh class.
I work 25 hours a week, make $600 a week, and basically play chess or do crossword puzzles all day. It rocks.
Stop making sammiches for Subway and get a real job, slob. Like me. I am contributing to teh world. Being a teechar also looks good if you get pulled over by the police and they ask what you do. They like that, even if you have alcohol on yer breath. Teh cops will cut you a lot of slack if they know you deal with teenage dickheads.
Originally posted by shavixmirI wouldn't let it worry you dude. I think it's just one of the modern business tactics, for people working in a supervisory or managerial capacity, to attempt to get '110%' out of their employees. Just carry on as you are doing. They can't ditch you if you don't do anything stupid. If it persists and the job is crap anyway, then look for something else then then tell them to stick it.
