Your approach is way too subtle! I recommend the "Sledgehammer Method" to co-worker management.

If you co-workers refuse to learn, hit them repeatedly with a very large sledgehammer until they do learn. A few will not make the grade, but HR can replace them with more suitable replacement workers.

If HR fails to produce suitable replacement workers, the "Sledgehammer Method" can also be applied to improve the quality of HR managers! It's foolproof!!!

Disclaimer: Use of the "Sledgehammer Method" may be illegal in some jurisdictions. Consult your local listings...

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.


go ahead... be a heretic
