I can’t wait to retire and fuck off into the sunset. This shit is so tiresome.
Maybe HR should have an exit interview with Raj to let him know he's fired for wasting everyone's time and company money with moral-busting-anxiety-inducing fake interviews.
I don't understand how exit interviews are a thing. Why would anyone go to one? I'm leaving the company, I don't owe you shit. Hell, I stopped putting in 2 week notices 20 years ago. These corporations don't care about me so I don't care about them.
Are you kidding, I love going to exit interviews. Its where you can say, in great detail and without reprisal, exactly why the company sucks.
I've had exit interviews, and I've had jobs where I wish there was an exit interview. It's possible to give feedback without burning bridges, and I don't think I've ever left a job on bad terms.
sometimes you leave on good terms. Might give them some things to improve (although I'd say that should happen continuuously, ideally. not just at the end)
Exit interviews are a signature quest. They need you to sign some NDA so you can't bitch about the reeeeally sketchy stuff your boss did.
If they pulled a guy out of a meeting - his meeting - to fire him, those cruel fucks deserve nothing from me but a glance in my rearview.
My last resignation was via a note added to my file on the way out. I left another job with Friday plane tickets and a go-bag and was starting work on Monday in a new time-zone.
See my favourite is when they do the exit interview and then after try and make you sign an NDA.
I have a policy to never sign anything that isn't contingent to me getting a job. Since I'm leaving, I ain't signing shit.
A chance to vent about your boss in hopes they get demoted?
Come on man, that's petty as fuck.
And again, I'm leaving so my ex boss is not my problem anymore.
Yeah, it is great! And since I have empathy I understand my ex-boss will be someone else's problem.
so that person is both wasting people's time, and possibly making their current team feel unnerved and replacable. galaxy brain move truly
Meh, they're just hiding the obvious - if they found a good candidate they'd hire them. It's a gentle rejection.
This appears to go over our linkedin mastermind over there though, and proceeds to write a self-help book about it...
Do these people even hear themselves talk?
You kidding?
It's their favorite thing.
Did everybody just decide to not read the last part?
Be aware of your people's worth so the world doesn't have to remind you.
It's basically 'hey, remember how shitty hiring is? keep that in mind and try to keep people you have.' It's not an example of "this is a good thing to try doing."
No its saying what he learnt from doing the actions in a more summarized manner. "The world reminding you" is not the actions taken in the story, but rather the conceptual issue you'll be avoiding by following the "advice". It's not a negation
If they straight up admitted they wasted my time, I'd steal a printer or something on the way out.
With how printers are nowadays, that printer would probably try to get a GPS lock, or failing that, scan all devices nearby to try to determine its whereabouts, then capture your ID, face and any sensitive information it could, and start extorting your for more yellow ink...
Beautiful comment
And demand you create an account to just turn it on.
Congrats, Harjeet, on being a piece of shit. Doesn't even matter if it's fake and gay like greentexts, this kind of thought is a cancer
My man writing corporate yaoi fanfiction on LinkedIn...
Whats yaoi ?
Manga depicting explicit, male homosexuality.
As is tradition on 4chan, all greentexts stories are fake and gay. Jack is elegantly indicating this, by qualifying OP's post as being a fictional male homoerotic narrative.
if you can't be aware of your team's worth without wasting everyone else's time, then you're a pretty pathetic "leader"
i thought sikhs were supposed to be not-dickheads?
All religions ask you to not be dickheads, not just sikhs
Most religions "ask" you to not be a dick head, while constantly psychologically encouraging you to be a turbo dick head, even promoting you if you're a big enough dick.
Isn't that just people tho?
That's what the dicks tell each other
And often then absolving you of everything dickish you did
And all religions miraculously still have high numbers of dickheads. Some more than average.
good poitn
Get back to the office so I can bask in your worth.
i'll shoot my worth all over your face
You all don't get it. In the story, the interviewer is the bad guy, he's wasting his time and the time of the interviewee just to understand how valuable his team is.
The lesson to take from it is to be in touch with your team so that you don't need someone else to show you how they are.
Isn't that the entire point of being a people leader? I am, and my job description and yearly goals are all about team performance, not my individual performance.
I'm surprised this is so low. The moral obviously implies this interviewer behavior is wrong.
Waste people's time and give them false hope. Great moral
Wasting his own time and the companies too. Should be sacked. I hope he gets nothing but bogus interviews for the rest of his life.
A quick search reveals ol' Harjeet is somehow quite the bigwig in HR circles. He wrote a book entitled 'Employee Retention Mastermind'.
I wonder if this is an excerpt.
HR not shaking the rep as a cargo cult any time soon
If you need external validation that your team has value, you have no business being in a management position.
This man will not have a car within 6 months, he will have a flaming pile of scrap, or a canvas upon which scratches paint a vile picture.
And also will be receiving an invoice for my time.
