A short time ago in an employee suggestion box not far, far away, this note from a disengaged employee was discovered.
Dear Management,
Being a real trooper, I’ve faithfully served this empire for many parsecs. But lately, morale here is in the trash compactor. I’m close to “storming” out of here! Here’s why:
- We don’t feel valued. It’s challenging to work for someone who acts like a dictator. (The black cape? A bit much.)
- We want a comfortable working environment. These uniforms don’t exactly help. (I have to plan bathroom breaks 30 minutes in advance.)
- We want to contribute, but we’re afraid the boss will choke us from across the room if he doesn’t like what we say. A little two-way constructive feedback could make a death star-sized difference.
- I find our lack of training disturbing. With the literal universe at our fingertips, why do we not have an online learning management system?
