All kinds of people in this world.Some who have basic pay scales to survive , slog 12 hours a day and maybe aspire to be someone in life.
We have a set of young sales people who earn a very small basic salary and a chance to earn twice the same amount in variable incentives.They are encouraged , motivated and given all sorts of boosters to ensure they are pepped up always.
Now comes the hidden arrogance.2 of them were selected for good performance and were awarded a 16gb apple ipod as an incentive.If one looks at it it would be a dream run.If not atleast something that may be 1.5 times his or her basic salary .
One of them a lady comes back after 2 days and says: actually i don't want this , instead i want a phone( a blackberry)!!!!!!
The second one had the cheek to use that and come 8 days later and say " do you have the address of the place where you purchased the same?I asked why and pat came the reply " no actually the ipod is not charging and i wanted to go and return it!!!!!!!
You give them and inch they take away a yard is known , but not having the slightest hesitation to give it back to the company with no regrets is something I fail to understand.This was done in a big get together in front of the entire team when they were distributed to the 2 select employees when they happily accept it and later ............................???
