schestowitz"I guess “we” (you and I) should start with the United Nations, eh? How shall we start? Thinking, you say. Well yes, thinking. But not sure how much mere thinking can do, to put things right.Mar 09 06:44
schestowitzFormula 1 is a bit different from the other organisations you mention. As I understand it, its Members are not Sovereign Nations.Mar 09 06:44
schestowitzAt the EPO, the present President is a product of national champion Business School (ENA) and politics in France. At the EPO, he behaves as a CEO, as he was taught at school. He sees himself as a dynamic CEO, at eye level with the CEO of other Global Titan corporations. The point is though, at the EPO he is not subject to the Rule of Law and so can indulge his power cravings to the full, free from legal constraint. Every psychopathic Mar 09 06:44
schestowitzCEO’s dream, isn’t it?Mar 09 06:44
schestowitzSince 1978, till the arrival of Benito on the scene, the EPO staff has been free to concentrate entirely on delivering work product of the highest quality, regardless of cost. Then, after all that time, money matters came to dominate. The pendulum has swung now to the other extreme, as only a pendulum can swing when free of any restraint. BB was put in there to “do a job”. The Member States on the EPO’s Governing Body can hardly Mar 09 06:44
schestowitzcomplain now, can they, on the day when Benito publishes in the EPO’s Annual Report his glittering figures of ever greater “quality” and productivity and cost-saving. That’s exactly what they required of him, isn’t it?Mar 09 06:44
schestowitzDon’t know about WIPO, except that supplying a few bog standard PC’s to a Member State strikes me as a poor basis to impeach its Australian Director General. There are always going to be some disgruntled employees, when management is doing its job, but when half the EPO workforce is out on the streets of Munich protesting about the President’s personal “Investigation Unit” and their outside assistance from a security firm calledMar 09 06:44
schestowitz“Control Risks”, when German TV runs documentaries about Examiner suicides, when questions are asked in the European Parliament, and when a local blog publishes docs which leave me wondering how criminal are some members of the President’s clique, and when the President routinely over-rules his own committees and, purely on his own whim, fires staff that have been exonerated, and docks their retirement pension rights, something at Mar 09 06:44

schestowitzFocusing on the reasons for this strike, it shows the bad side of unions and why they can be so despised by people on the other side of the divide.Mar 09 10:27
schestowitzI think unions fill a very important role in addressing the huge power imbalance that can often exist between employees employers. Unfortunately, this can (and all too often does) result in unions becoming unreasonable bullies.Mar 09 10:27
schestowitzAfter all, what was being proposed?Mar 09 10:27
schestowitzRecognition based on performance rather than pure longevity. While allowing for the fact that such a system can people rewarded for toeing the line and having the right connections (rather than their actual performance), I have worked for and with organisations that determine pay and promotions primarily on longevity and it's not great. The people who are energetic and hard-working tend to either get jaded or simply leave to to find a jobMar 09 10:27
schestowitzwhere their effort will be rewarded, while those who are promoted tend to be the ones who simply stuck around and didn't make waves or go out of their way to really do anything.Mar 09 10:27

schestowitz @Pinocchio:Mar 06 23:55
schestowitzWasn't the new salary scale introduction in-between?Mar 06 23:55
schestowitzIsn't a President's salary negotiated as a percentage of the old A7 scale?Mar 06 23:55
schestowitzIf his salary is a percentage of A7-xx, then the new bigger salaries of "management" gives an even worse impression...Mar 06 23:55
schestowitzAnyway, our "managers" have a lot less responsibilities and risks than those in the industry, where they have more responsibilites regarding budget. With the EPO I see no real risks which would allow those differences as now proposed...Mar 06 23:55
schestowitzThat may be my jealousy, though.... ;)Mar 06 23:55
schestowitz@Devil is in the Detail:Mar 06 23:55
schestowitz. Subject to meeting the requirements set out in Article 7, the EPO shall recognise as representative the unions which meet the following criteria:Mar 06 23:55
schestowitz- they elect their officials in democratic and transparent elections;Mar 06 23:55
schestowitz- they present candidates in official elections with the purpose of having elected staff representatives ORMar 06 23:55
schestowitz- they have elected staff representatives.Mar 06 23:55

schestowitz1 AND (2 OR 3)?Mar 06 23:55
schestowitzDemocratic election not being a requisite does not seem so surprising in the current situation...Mar 06 23:55
schestowitzBut much worse: since the SUEPO candidates were successful, and there is not an "AND/OR", the SUEPO is not even eligible to sign the MoU as currently negotiated.... Mar 06 23:55

schestowitzAt the EPO, the present President is a product of national champion Business School (ENA) and politics in France. At the EPO, he behaves as a CEO, as he was taught at school. He sees himself as a dynamic CEO, at eye level with the CEO of other Global Titan corporations. The point is though, at the EPO he is not subject to the Rule of Law and so can indulge his power cravings to the full, free from legal constraint. Every psychopathic Mar 09 06:44

schestowitzSince 1978, till the arrival of Benito on the scene, the EPO staff has been free to concentrate entirely on delivering work product of the highest quality, regardless of cost. Then, after all that time, money matters came to dominate. The pendulum has swung now to the other extreme, as only a pendulum can swing when free of any restraint. BB was put in there to “do a job”. The Member States on the EPO’s Governing Body can hardly Mar 09 06:44
schestowitzcomplain now, can they, on the day when Benito publishes in the EPO’s Annual Report his glittering figures of ever greater “quality” and productivity and cost-saving. That’s exactly what they required of him, isn’t it?Mar 09 06:44
schestowitzDon’t know about WIPO, except that supplying a few bog standard PC’s to a Member State strikes me as a poor basis to impeach its Australian Director General. There are always going to be some disgruntled employees, when management is doing its job, but when half the EPO workforce is out on the streets of Munich protesting about the President’s personal “Investigation Unit” and their outside assistance from a security firm calledMar 09 06:44

schestowitzFocusing on the reasons for this strike, it shows the bad side of unions and why they can be so despised by people on the other side of the divide.Mar 09 10:27
schestowitzI think unions fill a very important role in addressing the huge power imbalance that can often exist between employees employers. Unfortunately, this can (and all too often does) result in unions becoming unreasonable bullies.Mar 09 10:27

schestowitzRecognition based on performance rather than pure longevity. While allowing for the fact that such a system can people rewarded for toeing the line and having the right connections (rather than their actual performance), I have worked for and with organisations that determine pay and promotions primarily on longevity and it's not great.

schestowitzwhere their effort will be rewarded, while those who are promoted tend to be the ones who simply stuck around and didn't make waves or go out of their way to really do anything.Mar 09 10:27

-TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-ipkitten.blogspot.com | The IPKat: BREAKING - Louboutin case referred to CJEU: can a colour be a shape? [ http://ur1.ca/omaz7 ]Mar 09 19:19
schestowitz" Although I am really curious to see what the CJEU's position will be on this issue, it makes me wonder what the practical result of it will be since the new directive 2015/2436, in article 4 e (iii), refers to "shape or ANY OTHER CHARACTERISTIC" of the mark as possible absolute ground of refusal and, therefore, the notion of a color seems to fit in such provision.
