one of my more sarcastic personalities derives great pleasure in comparing what's happening in the workplace with what's described as effective sabotage in the CIA's field manual.

I wouldn't be surprised if the authors of the cia field manual just copied verbatim their management training manual

That is a great/hilarious post, even if the title is wrong. (The CIA did not yet exist in 1944; The manual is likely from the OSS, which was roughly the wartime predecessor of the CIA.)

That 8-point "General Interference with Organizations and Production" list sounds like ~50% of city councillors on every council in North America.
