How Not to Run a Business
Pros
The lights technically turn on. You’ll gain stories that will outshine any comedy show, excuse the pun. If you’ve ever wondered what corporate entropy looks like in real life, this is your field trip. Paychecks do clear but insurance may get cancelled.
Cons
Working here is like being handed a front row seat to a dumpster fire in a windstorm. Hot, chaotic, and impossible to look away from. Leadership - imagine a football team where the coach calls plays by rolling dice then blames the quarterback for not predicting snake eyes. Think of a hamster wheel duck taped to a unicycle balanced on a tight rope over a bone fire. Communication is more tangled than Christmas lights pulled from an attic. Half don’t work and half spark when plugged in. Morale - you know the smell of something burning in the microwave, that’s the smell of employee spirit here - the beatings would continue until morale improved. Picture firefighters roasting marshmallows beside the very blaze they’re supposed to extinguish. That’s how the employees cope. Turnover - people leave faster than free pizza disappears at a college dorm room. Every day is a new episode of how not to run a company - produced live, unrehearsed and with plenty of smoke effects. The vision is less guiding light and more flashlight with dying battery flickering in a thunderstorm. Think IKEA instruction written in ancient hieroglyphs and then shredded and then reassembled by raccoons by the dumpster in a thunderstorm. Communication- by the time you hear about change, it’s already failed twice.
