This is something one of my co-workers at the office found folded up in her phone-book today. The second of the lessons had me laughing so hard my eyes watered. It’s a little vulgar, and I don’t agree with all of the conclusions, but it is funny.

Do your own work. People will find out if you don’t, and it will be ugly.
If as a manager or supervisor you can look back and see that you’ve wrecked every unit you’ve supervised and that long-time employees are all actively seeking other employment or those able to do so have been or have been talking about retiring, look in the mirror – the problem is you.
Can you do better? Are you willing to make the effort? Is the actual job beyond your abilities, and is that why your management “style” or focus is to “major on the minors (issues)?” If you’ve got any sense or good character, you should be able to answer these questions truthfully, if only to yourself, and take appropriate action. If you don’t, the system may.
If you’ve been hired to supervise or manage a team and find yourself unequal to the task, quickly find another job before you wreck the unit you were hired to supervise. Remember – having done well at interview is a far cry from succeeding on the job.
