Every organization have a few people who love to shirk work. These are people who give out the maximum number of excuses. Remember, “It’s not my job.“, “How can i control ‘X’ over ‘Y’?“, “Iam too busy!“. When each of these excuses are used more than twice in a day, i think you have found your shirker in the office!!
These are the people who give all process related issues, if an assembly line is not upto the mark in a certain area, they are the first to point it out! If the deliveries are late, they know about it, if a machine has stopped working they catch on to it before anyone else on the floor! This whole way of knowing stuff is used in any of their innumerous excuses.
But if you notice, most of the excuses do have an element of truth in them. The shirkers point out innumerous chinks in your process or functioning each time something he/she was responsible for, goes wrong. This is just why you need them.
They are an information powerhouse! Each time a shirker says something, listen to him, you might just receive a valuable nugget, he will tell you where you really lost out on money besides on him!
