Pie Points

It has come to light yesterday that one of the project leaders at my office has implemented a rather unique mamagement policy. This policy being “pie points”!

The details, as I understand them, of this managerial technique are as follows.

The member of the time that finishes the month with the least [pie] points has to buy pies for the team.

The details of how one gains or losses these [pie] points are a bit sketchy as the flow of information was stemmed a little thanks to the ensuing mockery once people knew about it.

What we do know is points are docked for not wearing your id badge at all times. A rather questionable requirement for back office staff who work in a restricted access office but hey ho.

Weather this works as a motivational tool has yet to be seen, a few comments of the thin edge of the wedge were thrown about. Lets just hope it isn't widely adopted.
