Mandatory Training - II

I finally completed my mandatory training, and yes I did charge overhead (see Mandatory Training post), and I can now say without a shadow of a doubt it is a complete joke.

Most of the mandatory training is a result of some lawsuit that was filed against the Shitshow, some headline grabbing scandal, or just pure stupidity from a Bob like figure which cost the Shitshow embarrassment.

I’ve always thought it was funny that I had to take laptop safety course when I don’t even have a laptop, but since some Bob figure lost a company laptop we all get the opportunity to learn about laptop safety.

Because some Shitshow executives made some officials very upset we all get the opportunity to take ethics training.


Now if you didn’t know better one could claim that training is a good thing because people will learn and make fewer mistakes in the future.  Or that education is the key to success.  Not so at the Shitshow!  Why you ask?   Well, as a result of having so many Bobs at the company, the training is so watered down that anyone with some sort of intelligence can just skip ahead to the test at the end, without reading or listening to any of the training material, and still pass.  How is that possible?  With answers like:

A. You should follow the law and ask ethics or HR when you have questions
B. Do what is easiest
C. Pretend it didn’t happen
D. All of the above

it’s pretty hard not to pass.  That said, plenty of people have to take the quiz multiple times.

Because mandatory training is a complete joke and waste of time I throw rocks.
