EARLIER today the Staff Union of the European Patent Office (EPO) added a couple of links, one of which about jobs people hate ("This Is What Happens to Your Body When You Hate Your Job"). The context in which it was mentioned is abundantly revealing if not self-explanatory a mention. Workers are unhappy and this continues to negatively impact their health. As we put it a month ago: "The Management of the EPO Will Not Manage to Recruit Any Talent If It’s Killing Its Own Staff" (post here).

"Workers are unhappy and this continues to negatively impact their health."Hours earlier we mentioned what they had said on Friday. Nowadays, it's newspeak in action.

When the EPO's management (Bergot, Campinos and others) uses terms like "professional incompetence" it actually alludes to examiners who are professional and competent in properly dealing with patent applications.

So to survive in the job one needs to participate in abuses of the management.
