It's costly and extremely disruptive to implement, but it gives managers the warm fuzzies, because it makes them feel like they're actually managing.
Wouldn't it be better for everyone to just give the managers a nice set of toy soldiers?
Now, this would be the perfect time for a swear word.

In an effort to hate the world a little less, I went outside into the sunshine and promptly was screamed at by one of the people who direct traffic because I was halfway through the crosswalk when the walk sign started blinking. Then I got to Macy's and wandered around aimlessly trying to find where they kept their Aerosoles. When I found them, they didn't have the shoe I wanted to try on available in the store. Fine, whatever. I went back to my office. Checked my personal e-mail, which was just not the right move, because now I really, really want to claw out someone's eyeballs.

You seem a bit stressed, maybe you could think about your happy place.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I had a shake with lunch. That helped.
I'm about to get the office checked for a poltergeist, though.

I think shrift's happy place may include clawing out someone's eyeballs.

ION I just had chik-fil-a. Little deep-fried nuggets of crack.
SO. JEALOUS.

Good point. Think of somebody else's happy place.
