mystery tour

A short journey, especially with a group of other people in a bus, to visit places that are kept secret from you until you get there; often, this is done by management of a rock band or a musical establishment -- because it sees only the bottom line in entertainment or --namely the cash value of the group.
"We were taken on a mystery tour to some charity event would rather not mention!" "They don't respect our talents, they see us as only a money cow." "I've had enough of this crap!"

Hawthorne Effect

According to experiments (first conducted in the Hawthorn plant of Western Electric in Illinois, people who are told that they are highly capable and are doing well will then do even better work than worse. The adage "Honey catches more flies than vinegar" suggests that changes resulting from praise or dispraise may not be lasting.
At my workplace, nobody employs the Hawthorne Effect ....so it should be no big secret that it sucks to work there.

"Oh look, a Wikipedia Scholar is trying to prove himself again."
"Oh the Wikipedia Scholar thinks be correct, because he thinks he has a good source of information."

lostness

Obviously, "the condition of being lost," but more often in a psychological sense than in a geographical sense.
The 1970s was a decade of lostness for the American people, with wavering or obliteration of compass points they had once thought permanently fixed.
