The French mathematical journal Revue de la filière mathématiques (RMS) has published a scientific paper by imprisoned Russian mathematician and anarchist Azat…
One trick for employers to get rid of unwanted employees is to simply not ansign them work. Constant and deliberate boredom is a lot harder on the mind than it sounds.
So yes, if the gym and/or a maths book is all you got you WILL do that.
One company tried to get rid of me for 4 years. I was hired as a development engineer for a pilot project. Project started slowly and after my trial period the project runner had a stroke and remained on a sick leave.
Nobody dared to touch the project or bother me. I took it far as I could. After that I had nothing to do and no funding to continue, so i just hung around.
Project runner never returned and eventually they were able fire/retire him.
Nobody killed the project, but no funding either.
Maintenance electrisionists were happy to take me along for the ride and for 3 years I was their “trainee” with engineers salary.
I learned the trade.
I even went to talk to the region manager about why I had absolut zero billed work during my time. He just laughed and nothing changed.
During my fifth year I finally quit. Salary was engineers salary, but still a small one. They were also about to promote me to a department chief in a shit position where all employees and manager had just resigned in protest.
6 months after I resigned the “stroke victim” called and wanted me keep his project alive, but I had to tell him that the ship had sailed and torpedoed some time ago.
