Human Resource Quiz

Let's say you own a business that, for financial reasons, needs to be open and operating on a holiday. Your presence is not necessary on said holiday as your employees are more than capable of handling the business...and, if truth be told your presence is never necessary as you literally will not lift a finger to help any of your employees.

What is the most productive way to deal with your employees who are not spending the holiday with their friends and family?

A) Call your employees by phone and tell them you appreciate their sacrificing their holiday for the sake of the business...enjoy the rest of your day knowing that your employees are aware of your appreciation.

B) Neither call nor enter the business on the holiday, lest you remind your employees that you can have the holiday off while they have to work...

C) Come to the business on the holiday and point out the flaws of the employees performance during one of the busiest days in recent memory...while literally not lifting a finger to help them out.

D) Come to the business and in the midst of the most chaotic (and financially lucrative) periods of the day, go to your office put your feet on your desk and take a nap...when you wake from slumber tell your employees what a great nap you just had.

If you answered C and D then "Congratulations!" you are a co-worker of mine.
