If the point of the work was to deliver cubes, then it wouldn’t be working smart.
But since the original premise was that they were working smart, that means it doesn’t matter what shape the objects are delivered in.
Move fast and break things.
This is unrealistic, the client would never say thank you.
In my experience they’d carry on complaining, even after an apology and saying it’ll be put right.
This client is an introvert who took the entire day off to prepare for this phone call.
That’s social anxiety, not introversion.
The sphere looks taller than the cubes.
Perhaps it’s a mouldable material like clay to be re-shaped, or hard but to be cut down to a cube on-site.
You can see the pile of chips behind him from making the sphere.
the smaller ones are further away
But close to the waist height of the people pushing them.
The sphere is closer to shoulder height.
The guy is shorter
the first three people are the same distance away, suspended in the air, with their hands out
the cubes are behind them
it’s a clever trompe l’oeil
the meaning is: work smarter (by creating an optical illusion) not harder (by pushing a shape)
Blue collar with forklift and trolley looking at a bunch of office dweller in suits pushing cube be like:

It’s a team-building exercise that the management came up with. They might let some people go if it goes well, too!
Huh.
Do you have a link?
Sorry not any longer. It’s gone.

Smart people save a lot of work, in any era and civilization. Another example of ingenuity to transport of objects of many tons with only a handful of people.

or only one person to move it

Holly shot! Reminds me of a recirculating linear bearing, not what they were testing and not what they’re suggesting the Egyptians did but neat parallel.
Also if you push the front edge will dig into the ground, the force vector you apply has a downward component.
If the employees pulled it would lift the front edge and avoid the cubes getting stuck on obstacles.
Also, even if they didn’t need to specifically be cubes, he still left part of the object behind.
Does it not matter how much he brings to the end?
Is the requirement for success here solely his speed?
Why not ditch the cube altogether?
Or is it a sum of both speed and “cube mass”?
If so, how much can he shave off and still compensate by being fast?
Could you just cut a small piece of it and sprint to the end?
Is there a minimum amount you need to bring?
So many questions…
Even if what he did was legit, then cutting the cube into a cylinder would be a smarter choice. Maybe not even a full cylinder, an octagon or something like that would have roll fine and saved so much work.
The real solution is to cut a square cube than the square needed by the end of travel, cut the large cube into a sphere and then transport it then cut the sphere into the cube with the right size.
Or use wheels.
Don’t work hard, cut corners.
work hard, cut corners, and also salaries, and (if possible) the workforce, and-
Should be 1015 cubes.
Should be “work intelligently” as well.
Seems like John was trying to… cut some corners
Seriously, that seems like what this poster is actually promoting. Whoever made it/put it up in the office wasn’t working particularly intelligent that day
Management not providing their employees with adequate tools to do their job while also keeping them in the dark about the greater picture of their company. Ignoring their employee’s problems and then blaming those who try to solve it on their own.
Is everyone purposefully missing the point in the comments?
