Corporate Punk'd...
by Jame (business | humour | management theory)
I was just talking with a colleague the other day and we came up with the concept of being "Corporate Punk'd".
This is when you feel that the actions/decisions/policies of some in your company (generally management) are so ... um ... irrational/mis-informed/misaligned that you would swear you're on some reality TV show where management is comprised of actors that are intentionally trying to drive you to the big house.
The sad truth is that you're probably not on a TV show...
I won't confirm or deny if this has happened to me in the past, but lets just say that I've "observed it".
I'd be interested though if anyone else has felt they've been "Corporate Punk'd". Feel free to leave an Anonymous comment here, though anything that is TOO slanderous will be removed (I don't want to get into hot water either).
I only hope I haven't contributed directly to anyone's feeling of being "Corporate Punk'd" myself...
I've been corporate punk'd! I knew it! Ha, and here I thought George Bush and Ralph Furley had children and they had all grown up and started this company together. Now, I know.
