We “must” vote a new person each month to “spread the award around”. If the award is for performance and if the same person is repeatedly the best, he should be awarded each month – just like SpongeBob Squarepants!īut this doesn’t happen. In the truest sense of the word, whoever is the best employee for a specific month should win, regardless if he/she has already won the award last month or 2-3 months in a row. Sounds great, I applaud this.īut as time passed and “political correctness” reared its ugly head, the meaning behind this effort has become watered-down, to say the least. Years ago someone had the bright idea to single out an employee each month in recognition of their stellar performance and bestow an award labeled the “Employee of the Month”. We treat our employees like sheep herd them in, give them slop to eat, and expect the sweat off their brow (or their wool in this case) then we toss them aside when they’re no longer needed.Īdd to these substandard working conditions, low wages, out-of-touch management, and unrealistic expectations and we wonder why morale is at an all-time low. What a scam this is – at least it is for most of the business world! Here’s why… One of today’s typical “ employee motivational ploys” is the employee of the month award.
