I have always found it curious how the state flogs dead horses and creates the facade of employment. Sending good money after bad money!
The tribal wisdom of the Dakota Indians, passed on from one generation to the next, says that when you discover you are riding a dead horse,
the best strategy is to dismount.However, in Kenya, we chose to regard obvious things and:
Buying a stronger whip.
Changing riders.
Threatening the horse with termination.
Appointing a committee to study the horse.
Arranging to visit other sites/countries to see how they ride dead horses.
Lowering the standards so that dead horses can be included.
Appointing an intervention team to re-animate the dead horse.
Creating a training session to increase the rider's load share.
Re-classifying the dead horse as living-impaired.
Changing the form so that it reads: "This horse is not dead."
Hiring outside contractors to ride the dead horse.
Harnessing several dead horses together for increased speed.
Donating the dead horse to a recognized charity, thereby deducting its full original cost.
Providing additional funding to increase the horse's performance.
Doing a time management study to see if the lighter riders would improve productivity.
Declaring that as the dead horse does not have to be fed, it is less costly and therefore contributes substantially more to the bottom line of the economy than do some other live horses.
Purchasing an after-market product to make dead horses run faster.
Declaring that a dead horse has lower overhead and therefore has a better price/performance factor.
Forming a quality focus group to find profitable uses for dead horses.
Rewriting the expected performance requirements for horses.
** Promoting the dead horse to a supervisory position. **
Applying for a government subsidy to retrain dead horses.
Starting a campaign to deregulate the use of dead horses because regulation interferes with innovation and efficiency.
