Re: Opportunity cost?

Completely agree, but have a different take on productivity.

I think there is a maximum amount of productive effort to be gained from an employee while keeping them happy. Trusting them to deliver that effort combined with firing piss takers, can let you just leave people to get on with their work.

Huge caveat, you need the right people, but why bother stopping people being people for diminishing returns on productivity?

I read the reg at work sometimes but I also work extra sometimes as I like to keep my clients happy.

There is definitely a line and piss takers must be pruned.
