[07:01]	schestowitz[TR2]	@bf Well, Mr. IBM India HR liar-bot rage-bait troll shill spanky-pants parasite it would seem that I got you all hot and bothered, didn't I ?
[07:01]	schestowitz[TR2]	Well, maybe you should be in those sessions with your first line next time he has a "get together" with your mother and your sister. Won't that be fun for the 4 of you ? After all, you are a weird character for an IBM India HR troll bot parasite, no ? Yes, there are plenty of articles on line about Moffat. But it's obvious that obnoxious personalities like you and Moffat don't ever learn. After all he passed on confidential informa
[07:01]	schestowitz[TR2]	tion just for sc--wing around.
[07:01]	schestowitz[TR2]	And I see that Mr. Poopy Head Krispy-Kreme has been deleting postings again, hasn't he ? Maybe he and Krabanaugh might like to hook up with your mother and sister too just for fun. Who knows, there might be room for everyone to be mentioned in the upcoming novel and in graphic detail ? won't that be fun ?

[07:03]	schestowitz[TR2]	Very easy. Called The Peter Principle and been around forever. When I joined IBM in the early 80s it was awesome. I cannot begin to tell you how great it was vs the %^&* hole it is now. All self inflicted and started by everyone's favorite troll's man crush Gerstner.
[07:03]	schestowitz[TR2]	The Peter Principle, a satirical 1969 book by Laurence J. Peter and Raymond Hull, argues that in a hierarchy, employees are promoted until they reach their "level of incompetence," where they can no longer perform well, leading to widespread inefficiency. The book humorously explains why incompetence seems rampant in organizations, suggesting that people are promoted based on success in their current role, not for the skills needed
[07:03]	schestowitz[TR2]	 in the next, such as a great salesperson being promoted to a manager with no leadership skills.
[07:03]	schestowitz[TR2]	Core concept
[07:03]	schestowitz[TR2]	The principle: "In a hierarchy, every employee tends to rise to his level of incompetence".
[07:03]	schestowitz[TR2]	The process: An employee who is good at their job gets promoted. This continues until they are promoted to a position where they are no longer competent, and there, they stay.
[07:03]	schestowitz[TR2]	The result: The organization becomes filled with people who are not good at their jobs, as the competent ones have been promoted out of their effective roles.
[07:03]	schestowitz[TR2]	Key takeaways from the book
[07:03]	schestowitz[TR2]	Satirical but insightful: It uses humor to critique management and organizational structures, but its observations about promotion and incompetence are considered classic in management theory.
[07:03]	schestowitz[TR2]	Examples: It provides examples like a competent teacher becoming an incompetent principal because the skills for the new role (dealing with school boards) are different from the old one (teaching).
[07:03]	schestowitz[TR2]	"Final Placement Syndrome": The book also describes symptoms of being stuck in an incompetent role, suggesting "distraction therapy" (finding competence in hobbies) as a remedy.

[07:06]	schestowitz[TR2]	"That's a good idea. What I'm thinking of doing is just carrying it out and telling security it was in the garbage. I have a broken chair at home it might work for. I'm so happy I get to use my mind working at IBM.

[07:06]	schestowitz[TR2]	@aj - Put the base of the chair in the big recycle bin then wait for the day when the waste management truck arrives for scheduled pickup. Security will be taking it out in the morning. You will have a pretty good window of opportunity before the truck shows up.

[07:06]	schestowitz[TR2]	Dead Gerbil was a thief and a wastrel at RJR Nabisco before he came to IBM. He bullied people into thinking he knew what he was doing...he didn't. And he robbed the IBM Company blind. Millions of dollars left with Dead Gerbil when he left the company. You call it saving the company. That's why Dead Gerbil is pushing up the daisies...in he-l. Yes, he saved the company by looting it and the looting continued after he left. IBM was bi
[07:06]	schestowitz[TR2]	g in those days, so he could steal and raid with ease and there was money all over the place. You can't do that any more. It's getting smaller and smaller as business dries up - IBM's only business will be mainframes until it's death knell is rung. All the AI and Quantum stuff is small potatoes, as other companies are more nimble and get ahead with the technology.

[07:06]	schestowitz[TR2]	I use Sundays to plan my week. This week I'm taking my plundering to the next level. One of the sites I work/write at has some really nice ergonomic conference room chairs. I want one for home. Obviously I can't just walk out with it. But I took a looksy last week and I think I can disassemble one with my multi-tool. Then I'd take it out piece by piece and reassemble it at home. I have a large food delivery backpack that should fit
[07:06]	schestowitz[TR2]	 most parts. And there's an unused closet at the IBM office where I can stash the remaining parts until I get them. The base will be the hard part. Not sure yet how I'll get that past security.

[07:06]	schestowitz[TR2]	Dead Gerbil only ki-led a lot of jobs and took the money and ran like the bandit he was. Mr. Arvind Krispy Kreme is just following in his footsteps and trying to make up for any lost time with his oversized bonus.
[07:06]	schestowitz[TR2]	You seem to have changed your personality in your recent postings, Mr. IBM India HR liar-bot rage-bait troll shill spanky-pants parasite it. Are you on steroids again ? or is it hemorrhoids now ? LOL
