EU: One in four desk jockeys prefer upgrade by sledgehammer
13th April 2011
More than one in four European office workers believe that the quickest way to get a replacement phone or laptop is to destroy the one provided to them by their employer, according to a new study by online-backup provider, Mozy.
“Shockingly, over a quarter of the office workers surveyed feel that the quickest and most efficient method of replacing outdated technology, such as laptops and mobile phones, is to deliberately destroy or irreparably damage them,” concludes the study, which surveyed 600 IT managers and 3,000 employees across the UK, France, and Germany.
