As you mentioned these only lead to pooor decisions and mis management. One poor case i rememeber was an manager cutting staff hours during the busy season and then refusing to pay overtime - instead he would give them extra time off during the slow season - the thing was that most of these employees were seasonal and they were not employed there during the slow season! that manager was told do more with less.
