I had a manager last year that gave 20 of us a mirror with a mustache glued onto it wrapped in brown paper.
We had this informal get together with some drinks in some dumb bar after work. We were summoned upstairs for a meeting where we unwrapped our presents and then he proceeded to tell us we should look at ourselves differently.
fricken tool.
That is the sort of stuff I am looking for
I had the gross misfortune to work for Carter Holt Harvey before a small incident which resulted in a wrongfull dismissal case (which I won).
They had a system, stuffed if I can remember what it was called, but every year they ran a poll of all workers as to their attitude toward the company. The results were consistently ****ehouse. The personnel dingbat sat us down one day and told us how bad it was,(like we did not know), and then asked us how we were going to make things better for the shareholders
He told us the company took the process very seriously - they were spending $1.5mil per annum running it and they wanted results.
Of course we all chipped in and the shares shyrocketed
