Frank and Ernest by Thaves for March 07, 2010
Transcript:
Walden Pond "The truly efficient laborer will be found not to crowd his day with work, but will saunter to his task, surrounded by a wide halo of ease and leisure." Henry David Thoreau Ernest says, "Frank, do you think Thoreau's philosophy is applicable in today's world?" Frank says, "Absolutely! This idea will be very useful next time I have a job performance review!"

SO TRUE. Too bad the supervisors can’t realize there are fewer mistakes to be recycled.
Take your time and do your job right. Hurry and then do your job over.

The truly efficient and the lazy are identical–because a lazy person wants to exert the least possible amount of energy doing the least possible amount of work. No wonder Frank and Ernest are so efficient…

we have a new person in our department that i helped to train, and the one thing i need to keep reminding him is to slow down and do the task correctly rather than quickly. he’s moved from production with its focus mainly on quantity to our department which is focused on quality above all else.
