Employee Survey

After reading a recent Ghosts post I really had to laugh over this survey the company sent out

All the questions are answered with Strongly Agree, Agree, Partially Agree/Disagree, Disagree, Strongly Disagree, and Don't Know/Not Applicable.

1. I know my job requirements and what is expected of me at work.
2. I have the materials and equipment I need to do good work.
3. Management recognizes and makes use of my abilities and skills.
4. My manager gives recognition or praise for doing good work.
5. My manager or someone I work with seems to care about me as a person. (Awww. lol)
6. My manager supports and encourages my development.
7. My opinions and ideas seem to count.
8. The people I work with are committed to doing quality work.
9. In the last six months I have received feedback on my progress.
10. I have received the training I need to do my job effectively.
11. I am proud to work for our company.
12. I would recommend our company as a good place to work.
13. I am treated with respect by management.
14. I feel valued as an employee.
15. I understand how I and my role contribute to business success.

16. Ted's an arse(this I added )

I took the survey, since I missed it what with being fired and all. I made up my own answers, since I don't "Strongly agree" with any of it.

1. Yes
2. No
3. Depends on the manager; two SMs ago, he knew quality work. Not so much, now.
4. See three.
5. See three.
6. See three.
7. You're fucking kidding me, right?
8. When they're not being threatened, harassed or fired.
9. The feedback included, "Your last check is Friday."
10. Yes, but I was trained before all the current shit of being interviewed, then interviewed by DM, then interview by panel, then class in district office, then Compass...
11. Not since 2008.
12. Only if you're into S&M and you like to be peed or shit on.
13. See twelve.
14. Not since 2007.
15. I understand how I contributed; shame the company didn't.

I wanted to fill out an "Employee Suggestion" page. That didn't happen at all.

2. 7. 14.

I am amazed that the writers of the survey had the guts to even ask.
Or maybe it was cluelessness.
And when I say maybe, I mean definitely.

I bet you anyone putting even a "mildly disagree" on there is next on the chopping block. We couldn't have our bonuses, or raises, or tuition assistance. Next to go, in line with the "Don't Say Anything Bad" clause, is opinions.

I really doubt that considering yesterday when a DM asked a SM how they filled it out the RDO said that wasn't an appropriate question.

Well, I mean my managers all have praised me and my fellow associates for selling. What disappoints is the upper management that don't praise the stores that sell.
