Overheard in the Meeting


My company's HR Director is doing a 30 minute slot on the company HR policy and challenges.

Chairman Bill: "And are you ever intending to implement psychometric testing, which, for some inexplicable reason, seems to be all the rage in the UK?"

HR Director: "No."

CEO: "If we did, 40% of the people in the company wouldn't be here."

How the heck did you find such a sensible company : or did they find you?

Chairman Bill said...

Alan: the latter, thankfully.

"psychometric testing" Isn't that what those Scientology scam artists do? I think I'd use that to qualify out potential employers.
