You would think that after all the elaborate (?) hiring practices , and all the training and costs involved that management would in general trust their hired employees. Indeed its the other way around. In the case of the “Cloner” or “Cloner Seeker” its as if the prison guards had hired the criminals. Its the way of the Romans . One boss. The boss rewards the “soldiers in the field” who after all want his or her job. Since the hiring is only of clones all think alike and its not as if the whole process of thought is unreasonable or imaginary or even pathological in any manner. One twist or mistake by the head shark and its all over. The rest of the sharks ( who were hired for their approved traits) will move in for the kill. No one can be trusted. What a pathological situation. What a bunch of morons.
It might be said that “if you cannot trust your family whom can you trust” ? In the same or similar manner it can be said that if you cannot trust your employees whom can you trust ? In a way its a similar fate that awaits father who as young women scoured the field of life plundering all the women they could in their paths. The ultimate revenge of life for these wonderful souls is to bear daughters as children. Now its life revenge. The said father will lie awake at night , while their daughter is out at the movies , a simple date , or simply earlier simply playing with a young man at kindergarten. The reasoning is that everyone else “has” to think like them. There is only after all only one way to think , one way to act. Their can be only one winner – and of course it is them. Jesus’s gift to the world all in themselves.
In a similar manner these “managers” tend to regard any hard working employee , whom they did not hire, as a direct threat. A clean broom sweeps all is the catchphrase. Out with the old ( especially older , even elderly employees who may do the work of five “boys” or “girls”). You would think that every attempt would be made to keep these most valuable employees. Yet the exact opposite is more than true. Its almost a vendetta to get rid of these most valuable , seasoned employees and to ” place their people” in those positions and indeed positions of trust and power. Its stacking the deck , or the game so to speak.
The fallacy of problem with this whole equation is that the hiring manager only hires carbon cut out clones that are to his “liking” ,”way of thinking” or even way of life. Its as if the hiring manager is looking in the mirror. This is what he most feels safe with and even trusts.
Its like one big dysfunctional family , trusting what they know, always being able to count on the system or ways of doing things. After all is this not the “proper way” to do things. In such a situation , as in an alcoholic household – the people involved may never know or come to realize that what they take for granted is not “normal ” , “functional” or least of all very effective or efficient.
