In many organizations, especially small-sized and stooge-infested ones, there is this naked dance of increments and promotions that is repeated every year.
The naked dance is carried out like a tribal ritual in a total unprofessional and even obscene manner by all concerned - the pack of joker-like executive management, the top dog and his pet coterie and the lesser mortals.
The lesser mortals erupt in elation and joy or anguish and sadness when they get the letter, depending on what the letter of increment contains.
The naked dance follows soon thereafter!
The lesser mortals are distributed the letters in a company-wide meeting where the top dog calls out the names of the lesser mortals and hands them the letters.
The CEO is such companies is nothing short of a Joker-like Lunatic (JL) who along with his Nasty Stooge (NS) decides who gets what.
And this meeting is as funny as one can image it could be!
Or, in some other crap organizations the lesser mortals are sent emails with the letters (in electronic format with password) copied to one of the coterie of the top dog.
Department heads and managers in both such organizations are basically made to look like fools.
There is no meeting, no discussion with the department head. In fact, they are not even informed about what transpires in the secret, dirty meetings of the top dog and his pet pups.
The emails that go to the lesser mortals is based on the discussion of the MD in such companies who are basically viciously stupid (VS) and carry out their con jobs using the person taking care of such matters who is a rat-like scoundrel (RS).
The mails are not copied to the department heads and managers but to the stooges who form the coterie of the top dog.
Those in the coterie come in many forms. There are those who are experts in toxic silence (TS), or like a maverick kid (MK) or a piddly pest (PP).
The above characters in these organizations make the performance appraisal process which should ideally be handled in an immaculately professionally-run manner culminate in the naked dance of increments and promotions.
So do you see naked dance of increments and promotions in your organization?
If no, lucky you.
If yes, you are in a bad company. Period.
And if you know what situation you are in, and you are a real professional and not a stooge who is a part of the coterie you should remain that way.
Don't get up and do the naked dance.
Remain professional.
Don't even join when others are doing the naked dance.
