Should have just force-choked them.
I get work place bullying. I don't get this.
This is just bizarre. At first I thought I missed the date and it was an April fools thing. But nope. Actually happened.
Someone did a personality quiz, as a team building exercise, and got the following result:
the Darth Vader category was described as a “very focused individual” who could bring teams together.
And then decides, fuck it I'm out see you in court! How is being described as focused and being able to bring people together a bad thing?
She was awarded the best part of a year's salary for this! This is why the NHS service is getting worse and worse.
But if you asked people to list Darth Vaders personality traits I’m not entirely convinced “highly focussed” and “good leader” are what people would write.
I’m also sure he wouldn’t have a compo face if one of his colleagues entered their perception of him into an online personality test.
This is what is even weirder. It wasn't the business demanding she dress up as Vader or become Vader or take on any of the traits people might think of when they they think of Vader. It was another colleague filling out a form that is meaningless (Myers Briggs) and is only the colleague's opinion. Imagine if another colleague simply called her a bitch at work. For that the NHS needs to pay £30k? What the heck?
I want to know what it came up with when she filled it out herself..
Ugh 10 people probably read this who became reform voters
