I cant stand it at all, and I work in a primaritly sales & advertising environment. So when big sales come up, naturally people want to celebrate them. Thats cool, Heres an example of our Team Manager congratuting a sales rep and acknowleding his wins and even a little incentive as well (aside from the monetary gain)

Hi All,

The winner for Week 48 will be DJ - please join me in congratulating him!!

Last week some of DJ's big wins were:

SALE OF THE WEEK - Salem Cars, 4x1, 27 papers, (GRT pack) Full colour 4 week booking, $5,188, the impact of this sale is huge as CarsGuide is the only pillar that we are looking to bridge the gap in for our end of year forecast!

Week 48 sales:
Brown brothers, Manly Daily Tue once a month cost $365.56per month, total value $4,386
Macarthur Square Florist, Macarthur Chronicle - modules over 4 weeks, $800
Mt Annan Newsagency - Macarthur Chronicle - 2 modules over 4 weeks, $800
Anytime Fitness, Macarthur Chronicle - South West Booster 1/4 page for 6 wks, $3,300
Call stats: over 150 long outbound calls for the week
Credits: $0 credits
Sick Leave: 0 days off sick
Adherence: 0 mins non adherence all week

In recognition of DJ's wins he will receive a half a day off on a Thursday afternoon - please join me in congratulating him on his achievements for last week
Now here is where it really starts to shit me, is the string of managers who sit under the Team Manager, who have to CC every fucker in the division to let everyone know, how much they seemingly care.

Thats fantastic DJ!! Especially the sale for Motor Vehicles which needed a boost!! Nice work DJ!
And...

Wow DJ – Congratulations on a phenomenal week!
More...

What a Fantastic week you have had DJ - I love the fact you have influenced all areas of business and brought in extra revenue to your team.
Congratulations to you & your winning team
Go North - East Team!

Well Done DJ !!!
This is an incredible achievement for the Business in just one week !! – you are really blazing a trail over there in the North Team.
Congratulations on your fantastic results.


Best Regards,
etc.

Anyway to end the storyyy, motherfkinnng raggeeeee

PS: ASSSSSSHOLLLLESSSSSS

Yeh, that's a gear grinder.

Another one was excessive (or any) use of the "read notification" option in Outlook. Read notification is bad at the best of times, but several people just left theirs on.

"Hey everyone, I'm just letting you all know I'm on holiday for a week on Monday."

You don't need read notification for that. And further more, 80% of the company just baa-baas and pressed "okay" to the read notification message - so the person comes back from holidays with 800 "Billy-bob read your email about your holiday" messages in their inbox. That's efficient.
Who do you think you are? If you'd stopped winning, you could have been the Biggest Loser, if you gave up, you could have been a Survivor, if you'd stopped reading Orwell, you could have been on Big Brother!
