Re: Next Year's Game?

[quote=StevnIndustries;856642]Echoing a whole bunch of other people:

1. Not getting penalized for being good! (Is your boss going to punish you for blowing away the competition and making the company a lot of money?)

If you work in news, believe me "I've been there" and that's about all I can say in a public forum but yes I have seen some who do well get dumbed down and held back for just that, blowing away the competition too often. When I read about that rule it sure hit home believe me although I doubt they out that rule in there for that reason or but then again it sure teaches you that being too good in a certain area can cause others to react negatively.

I don't agree though with that type of rule, no one should be penalized for being too good, if someone or some team IS too good then it just gives others something to study and work up to that level or at least try but knowing that you might be penalized leads to not wanting to try so hard.
