Problem is most people in HR are those pretty girls who do an hours worth of work a day between their manicures, phone calls and facebook browsing. I've seen it too many times for it to be anecdotal. They latch onto a few key phrases to get themselves by. Ask any citing 6 Sigma or 5S what those letters really mean? All that jargon and alphabet soup can be spewed out by any idiot, and usually is.
Warehousing costs are an indicator not a base cause. If you have 1000 units sitting in a warehouse for six months depreciating, it's because no one's buying them. Which means you're losing money from a failed projection. Something this seemingly slow moving would likely need a different supply chain, say direct from manufacture, JIT. Also, the margins on such might just not be there. Hardly worth the effort since IBM is not a non-profit.
You could have always dumped the account and filled it with solicited SPAM telling Microsoft you were a 45 year old gay midget into tranny foot fetish porn with interests in RC cars, the Book of Mormon, and central Asian camel farming.
All the churches need are liquor licenses. They can sell communion wine and hot wings. Insta-church-sports bar. Eat that NFL. No one fucks with the Jesus.
Work hard and treat the other people in your office right and it will happen for you.
Actually, isn't that the exact opposite of what actually happens? You don't get to the top by working hard and doing a good job. You certainly don't get there by treating people right. Best you could hope for in that scenario is to have the some job indefinitely. No, the only way to make it to the top is to be able to do enough to get by, while being more cutthroat than everybody else. You've got to be willing to take credit for somebody else's work. You gotta suck off the right people to get the inside track. You've got to screw over a buttload of people and never flinch.
I don't know. I find myself in such a situation at my *new* job. The work is something I've done for a long time and can quite easily excel at. BUT what I would consider a reasonable work environment is turned into hodge podge of draconian fiat rules and ignored legitimate and sometimes legal concerns. For instance, I punch a clock. It doesn't bother me, except the rules regarding punching in early or late. Punch in early and you're working for free. Punch in late and you're doc'ed 15 minutes. Miss a break, tough. You can't make it up. This one detail is held highest of all factors. It trumps safety (OSHA), security (CTPAT), various FDA regulations and a host of other things that should be of great concern. I also had to find my own computer to perform the tasks expected of me. Which means I don't have a desk. I have a bench that every Tom, Dick and Harry can come along and fuck with. It took over a month just to get a badge to get in the building. I've had my hours changed six times in two months. I had an urgent medical issue I had to address. And all I got from my boss is the evil eye for coming back to work from the doctor. I don't think it unreasonable to ask for a safe, clean place with the tools necessary to do the job, along with a little understanding that people have lives outside of work. And I don't think employers should lie just to get people in the door.
I'm really just looking for some validation that the place really does suck. And I'm not crazy for looking for employment elsewhere.
Where is it that you work that they'll actually pay you for that time? Granted I'm not a programmer or in IT, but everywhere I've ever worked, if they walked you to the door, the only severance you got was what vacation you had saved up. And that was only because it was required by law.

Round them all up and set them on fire? That's of course after we burn their valuables in front of them. I love watching grown men cry.
