If I suggested that an employee might be expendable, his supervisor would look at me as if I were crazy.

I discovered it was almost impossible to remove an incompetent or lazy worker and that one of the most popular methods supervisors used in dealing with an incompetent was to transfer him or her out of his department to a higher-paying job in another department.
