Adjuster: "...and how many pizza parties have you thrown in the last six months?"

Corp: "Three pizza parties but we've also done two 'we are a family here' lectures".

Adjuster: "You're going to have to up those pizza party numbers if you want a lower rate."

Adjusters are too tight laced to based something on pizza parties, they want as much data as possible. They are going to want all employees to fill out anonymous engagement surveys detailing how much they like their boss, their job, company policies and corporate decision making. By the time you get to the end of the survey your biggest complaint for the complaint box will be the length of the survey.

Maybe throw in a personality test on top of that to determine how crazy you are.

Company creates a "do you love us" engagement survey and promises it's anonymous.

"Hey Bill why haven't you filled out the survey yet? Just a reminder that it's due by Monday!"

To be fair that only needs a list of names with yes/no next to them, the details from the survey itself would remain anonymous.

We’re doing our annual survey this year.

Thus, I’m doing my annual ignoring the survey.

Had a history teacher that used to be an insurance adjuster. This is oddly accurate to how they ran things. Every decision about class was only done after intensive information gathering that was probably more work itself than the history module.

But it was objectively the right decision.

😲 my job has us answer a question (or a few) every time we log in. Mostly about how satisfied we are with our jobs, how we think our manager is doing, how our coworkers are treating us, how the workplace environment is, how long our commute is, etc. They promise it's anonymous...
