CBC Employees Unhappy: " Poor Dears"

From Peter Worthington in the Trono Sun (via Robert):

As reported by Sun Media, a "wellness" survey at the CBC shows massive job dissatisfaction, despite CBC employees getting better pay, better pensions, more job security than colleagues in private-sector media.

Some 33% of those participating even indicated they intended to quit their job -- but that's likely empty rhetoric, because they're unlikely to get as good a deal on the competitive job market these days. Especially media jobs.

Poor dears, some 12% of CBC types said they were treated rudely and meanly by fellow employees and their bosses. Some even were "hated" and got death threats. Their only recourse was to take sick days.

Unhappy campers indeed. Try taking too many sick days in the private sector when you're not really sick, and see how long you last.

The survey is enlightening as it is startling, because the CBC is sort of socialism personified.

Job satisfaction is low because there is no accountability.

Public taste or preference is irrelevant at the CBC, which does its own thing without regard to what the public wants.

The Mother Corp. knows best. It forcefeeds listeners and viewers with what it thinks they deserve. If the public doesn't like it, let them write letters or phone Rex Murphy on CBC Radio Sunday afternoons.

That's quintessential socialism.

I don't know which I like less: the CBC or "wellness surveys".
