I wasn't present for this scene. A friend recollected it.
Scene: Many many years ago, in a company that no longer exists. Friend in office and overhears the following. Regional manager on speaker-phone conference call with many managers and a VP. Manager X is describing a problem, and it comes to light that his store is receiving the warehouse shipments improperly.
VP - You're receiving the warehouse shipments by scanning?
X - Errrr yes?
VP - You're supposed to receive them in techy-tech mode!! Who else is scanning warehouse shipments?? If I catch anyone scanning warehouse shipments I'll cut off their heads and shit down their throats!!
...True story, my dear reader. True story.
imagine this being your "normal" work environment!
ReplyDeleteI think that they were all to scared to ask what "Techy Tech Mode" is..."
ReplyDelete@paul Well... I didn't want to use the real term.
ReplyDelete@Happy W - WTF!! :-( Sadness.
