Anyone have to do video games for employee training?
Comments (6)It may not be an HR person pushing the games. It is entirely possible that some executive in the company heard about them and is telling HR that all the employees have to "play" the games. These "games" are apparently the latest buzzword, and execs get street cred when they can brag/boast they, too, are using the latest and greatest thing in their company. I don't work in HR, but my position requires me to work very closely with our HR department, and you would not believe some of the things the upper echelon has told them to do. Some of those things would have broken the law, and HR has had a hard time reining a few VPs in. What they get from these games is a bunch of statistics, which may be used to pinpoint employee weaknesses so they can get better training, or to pinpoint employee weaknesses so they can be let go, or which the execs can't interpret so it is all for nothing. One thing, though. I would never, ever, put company software on my phone. If the company wants me to use software that requires a touch screen, the company needs to provide the touch screen. Unless they want to pay for my phone and phone bill, my private phone remains private. Asking employees to put company-provided software on their personal devices crosses a line for me. First, it's a "game." Then it becomes requiring the employee to use their own device to do work. Not a good situation....See MoreQuestion about Train Game
Comments (12)I don't know if all games are winnable or not. I've wondered about that before too. I usually try to move all the cabooses that are at the front of the line, then move all the engines that are at the back of the line before I do anything else. I win in spurts. Some times the games do seem to be set up easier than at other times. A couple of times ago when it showed up it was hard to win even one game. The time before that it was so easy I got bored.

Comments (8)I rarely replay the same game unless I made a stupid mistake. I only consider it winning if I get all 8 trains completed. I do that about 80-90% of the time. I don't get many yard jams; I'm almost always able to finish at least one or two of the trains. I finally broke down and paid so I can play the Train game whenever I want. Now that's dedication! Is there a 12-step program for the Train Game? I'm hopelessly addicted....See MoreThe train game is back
Comments (7)I got my sister hooked on the trains last time it was open. I usually like playing the first one (the little one). It doesn't have the bells and whistle but I zoom in and it doesn't have the delay like the others....See More- 6 years ago
