Did he respond to the humiliation by doing a better job? Or did he not give a flying fart? Humiliating is always the way to get less of a worker and more from your HR manager

I can remember a walking boss I had that would sidle up to a guy loafing and tell him "I am the only fugger gets to stand and watch, get to work or get gone." There was a day you could do that.

I always thought he would be a good deer hunter, standing was his forte! A few years later he got arrested for shooting a deer out his pickup window. I called that wrong.

no matter when or where, or in what endeavor, 10% of the folks do 90% of the work Truth I've heard that 10% of the fishermen catch 90% of the fish and I do believe 10% of the criminals do 90% of the crime. In any case it is a small percent that do the most of it when it comes to the thieving.
Patriotism (and religion) is the last refuge of a scoundrel.

Had a "toolmaker" at work who couldn't hold tolerances worth a fůck on a lathe. He'd get a shaft down to about .005" oversized and out comes the 220 emery cloth. Ever after he became known as "220" ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/NGNBZHr2/Blank-Valid-Hamadryad-size-restricted.gif)

I can remember a walking boss I had that would sidle up to a guy loafing and tell him "I am the only fugger gets to stand and watch, get to work or get gone." There was a day you could do that. You still can. It's amazing how many guys don't know that you have to please the boss. I had a salesman who started wearing a leather purse. The customers were "bull of the woods" types. So I told him to ditch the purse. He argued and told me it wasn't a purse but some kind of bag etc. Then there was a sales manager who started to wear perfume. His whole office stank. I told him to ditch the perfume. Instead he argued with me about it being cologne, not perfume, etc. Guys like that, if they don't shape up, get rid of them quickly.
Don't blame me. I voted for Trump.
Democrats would burn this country to the ground, if they could rule over the ashes.

Until I got older any new job always came with a new nickname and catching a lot of [bleep] from everyone. You roll with the punches unless it gets personal. Do your job and dont be a bitch and pretty soon you are part of the team. Sensitive types never last. We had one fella we named Illene because he was always leaning on something.
I've always been different with one foot over the line.....

I was fortunate in that the majority of those that worked under me were contractors. A chitt can was moments away if necessary.
