[quote=Anonymous] Being caught up in data is what got us into this ridiculousness. Nobody seems to be credible anymore without "data". I know someone who is evaluated based on the data of how long people stay in her unit in the hospital. She is compared to a unit in a community 50 miles away where most of the patients are much younger. Well, of course her statistics are not as good. The result is that her employees will get a 1.5% wage increase this year while the employees in the unit 50 miles away will get a 3.5% increase. Yes, data are always fair in telling us what is going on and in making decisions. Best thing is that you can always blame the "data" instead of people for making the bad decisions. [/quote]
