Minimising effectiveness
A Kiwi working as a locum in an NHS hospital in Britain writes: "In my current hospital we receive weekly email newsletters keeping us up to date with happenings in the hospital. Among the various offers I discovered a priceless gem. As staff we are being offered the opportunity to develop our management skills, including a course entitled 'Minimising employee contribution and effectiveness'. Needless to say a correction was emailed around the hospital about half an hour later pointing out it should have read 'maximising'. I can't help wondering if someone's true colours slipped through there?"
Now police have now gained a High Court order to confiscate nearly $37,000.
