Some of the things that you hear coming from the CEO's of many companies makes you go HUH?!   Here is a list of some of the dumb thing's that were said.

As of tomorrow...Employees will be able to access the building using new individual security cards.  Pictures will be taken on Wed. and employees will receive there cards in two weeks!

What I need is an exact list of specific problems that we might encounter on this project.

This project is so important that we can't let other issues that are more important to interfere with it.

Doing it right is not an excuse for not being on schedule.

NO ONE will believe that you solved this problem in one day.  We have been working on this for weeks.  Now go back out there and look busy for a few weeks and I will tell you when it is time to tell them.

Quote from the boss...Teamwork is a lot of people doing things the way I say!

We know that communication is the problem...but the company is not going to discuss it with the employees.

Bill, If you can't do it correctly at least do it quickly. Or if you can't do it right at least do it neatly.

William, I've actually experienced something very similar to this: 

NO ONE will believe that you solved this problem in one day.  We have been working on this for weeks.  Now go back out there and look busy for a few weeks and I will tell you when it is time to tell them.

Not quite the same, but still a function of wasting time and money.  Of course the longer you work on a project=the longer you are employed=the more money you make.

William,

These are quite amazing.  So, they all came from people who make several million dollars in annual salary plus bonuses and stock options?  Where do I sign up?!!!  lol

This just goes to prove that there is nothing common about common sense.

Now I know why these CEO's get paid so much.  They really know how to communicate.
