Talk:Who Moved My Cheese?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

From the manual of style: "Use italics for the title or name of books, movies, albums, TV series, magazines, ships, major orchestral works, and court cases." -- Notheruser 17:30 20 Jun 2003 (UTC)

My contribution was to change all of the verb tenses in the synopsis to present tense, in order to maintain consistency. Some verbs were already in the present tense.

Nice job; thanks. Addendum: I forgot to mention that it reads much better now. :) -- Notheruser 21:06 20 Jun 2003 (UTC)

Maybe someone who knows more about Wikipedia will see this and consider my recommendations. I have read the book, and it seemingly was created as a way of mistreating one's employees. The basic message is that people need to act like mice, who are very stupid and lack emotional capabalities. So it's reccommendations are to embrace a twisted dehumanization process backed by management. If you're not the boss, you deserve to be treated like garbage. Yeah, so I hope the criticism section can be updated, since it seemingly is nothing but jokes now anyways. -Tran Nguyen

How could you suggest that this book is a "twisted dehumanization" process? I feel that your are simply looking to far into the book . the idea behind it is to suggest to the reader that change constantly happens and here is how you can be better prepared. I dont recognize any subliminal messaging in the book to suggest otherwise? -Bill Rance

[edit]

I removed this as it was not NPOV:

"Marketing

The book is extremely well marketed. One big target group were managers who bought the book in large quantities and then gave it to their subordinates. This also highlighted the attitude of these managers towards their subordinates."

Since when does "parabolically" mean "via a parable"?

Does anyone else find it amusing that this page requires a spoiler warning? --Vees 20:36, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
