Last week I blogged about the new rules at work. A fabulous attempt to micro manage and turn people in to robots. It is all the rage in corporations. We are allowed so many minutes for breaks and if you figure it out you have 4 minutes to dash to the loo. If you have to sit a while then you need to send the supervisor what I call a "poo email" letting them know you spent extra time in the loo. Absurd? It gets better.

This week our new rules included starting out with each phone call with 100 points and you get points deducted for various things. A sneeze on a phone call is a 4 pointer. If you change a word in the script from an "and" to a "the" for example that's 10 bloomin points. Now you are really a slacker.

So today I just figured out that I am doomed and will face the inevitable chewing out for sneezing, clearing my throat and various other transgressions. The fact that I seem to be taking this with good cheer surprises me. I guess it all seems like a bad movie or a cartoon and you just have to laugh at cartoons.

cheers,
Cassie
