Sometimes I just don't get it....(job vent)
So a few months ago we were required to fill out a survey regarding leadership from our supervisor and respect from our co-workers. Come to find out we were selected for a "team building" exercise, "not because we need it, but because we are all so great at working together already". I was talking to a co-worker about a few of these seminars the department had to do in the past. She said the last few resulted in people yelling at each other, people crying, storming out of the room, etc. I don't understand how something like this is supposed to help us as a team. It seems a bit more destructive than anything. I'm hoping to be pleasantly surprised when the time comes.
Re: Sometimes I just don't get it....(job vent)
I feel your pain.
Our boss likes to have a BBQ for the company. In our back parking lot. They are super boring and no one really talks to each other b/c we are always walking on egg shells w/ the boss.
He has recently started doing what he calls "team-building" exercises that everyone hates. Examples: throwing an egg to the other person; throwing a water balloon to the other person. There is no incentive to work together; we do it b/c we have to. The "games" aren't engaging at all and he doesn't see it. All that happens is someone gets an egg on their clothes or water down their shirt or pants.
This made me laugh......
I know, me too! Its so sad. We have said bbq this coming Friday and we all dread these. It doesn't help that I'm the ONLY female that works for this company so I have absolutely nothing to commiserate w/ the rest of the company.
Do you work at Dunder Mifflin???
I had to google them. I don't, but oh em gee. I am laughing!
I couldn't help but laugh when I read that. We have no games from what I've been told. Just finding out your "animal personality" and who you will or will not get along with. :-/
It IS funny; sad but funny! hehe
A few years ago he went to a convention and got on the "what shape are you?" kick. He started classifying people as squares, triangles, and circles. WTF?!
