This one is for all of us poor suffering employers.
Winter is, almost, here. Bringing with it lower efficiency. Higher costs. Late arrivals. Early exits. Excuses 101:
- Extended lunch hours ( Its sunny).
- Decrease in typing speed (we need to rub hands and keep those finger tips warm).
- Increased cost of staff welfare (read tea and samosas).
- Surge in Absenteeism. (Cough! Cough!)
- Reduced cash flow (Winter break in the US/ Europe – no one working)
Sigh. Where have The Boys of Summer gone?
