Feeding the Snakes to Fight

I recently heard that the Uberbaus is conducting one of his famous management motivational moves. Try and understand this:

1. Uberbaus tells employee P that he likes to be the bad guy so that the workers will unite together in O3-ness and work as one. (he is being "self-sacrificial" so he says).
2. Uberbaus then grabs Q into the room and bad mouths about R and says he doesn't want to work with R.
3. Couple days later, Uberbaus grabs R into the office and complains about Q to R.
   
4. In effect, Uberbaus thinks that this will cause Q and R to compete against each other and work harder.

The truth of it is, everyone knows about Uberbaus' crazy tactics. He simply gives people no reason to have better synergy for the company, which is bleeding money to the "superior races". But that's another blog entry.
