Sunshine Points - an admission...

Your Recruiting Officer has an admission. My good friend, Dirk Pitt, has pointed out to me the original idea for Sunshine Points, on that hazy night at the pub, where he was indeed present and a co-conspirator in the forming of said idea, did a good deal less mincing with the niceties and correctnesses of IT leaning officedom.

The original idea was to award points for bollo**ing things up - and yet to call them something useful like the very good 'r2dtard' points was simply too obvious and would not last long in today's politically correct workplace. So, dear readers, the idea of Sunshine Points was born, so the individual responsible for the bollo**ing up of fundamental tasks - when they have already been told several times how to do it properly and really should know better - would be further confused when awarded 'Sunshine Points' for doing so. Cruel really, but hey, IT stress is real too.

There, I feel much better. Thank you, Dirk, now my conscience is clear. ;-)
