A person works in a IT organization. One day there is a Bay decoration competition.
If you do not recollect what a bay decoration event is, we sit and work each day in a contraption called a bay or a cube.
So this organization has this weird competition where it expects employees to come up with weird ideas to decorate their cubes with what not!
What is the irony over here, you may be wondering.
One of the team, which was working came up with an idea of putting a vacuum cleaner, printer, dustbin, soiled tea cups thrown around, paper print outs indicating weird weird things.
The employees thought this to be a call center theme.
The irony is when asked, one of the employees told, this was the state of the project which they were working on, what it was all about, errors, unexpected things etc etc.
And even bigger irony is, the employee who told or explained this theme was none other than the XXX of the company.
And the biggest irony of them all is that, the XXX person told "What an nice idea " to this bizzare absurd decoration.
Well, what do you have to say, when the management knows what is the problem, yet they fail to address them and fix them, instead resorting to, depicting them in a bay decoration competitions.
In a way, I guess they are incapable to take responsibility, rather gathering sympathy from bystanders, but when the storm strikes, does it listen to your or mine sympathy. I'm afraid not. For that, I'm sure there would be a bag full of political tricks!
Cheers,

Hahah.. This is a really good one. However, I do not know who this XXX is u are referring to, but I have an inkling of who it might be. In that case, I would say you are working in a really good company because they have seen the problem and accept that there is a problem. Which is more than what can be said of most companies!
