Everywhere I've ever worked: “Insist on doing everything through channels. Never permit shortcuts to be taken.” “Haggle over precise wordings of communications, minutes, resolutions.” “Insist on perfect work in relatively unimportant projects.” “When training new workers, give incomplete or misleading instructions.” “To lower morale, and with it, production, be pleasant to inefficient works; give them undeserved promotions. Discriminate against efficient workers.” “Hold conferences when there is more critical work to be done.” “Do everything possible to delay the delivery of orders.” “Prolong correspondence.” “Multiply procedures and clearances involved in issuing instructions.”
