Ah, the wiki of the thousand lies strikes again.
If you google for it, a lot of hits reference the wiki, but
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The_beatings_will_continue_until_morale_improves
has a redirect to the one you quoted. Unless you add "&redirect=no" to
the URL -- in which case you get a zero content page.
So all those references are now null and void and people who quote
wikipedia in their writings are Making Sh*t Up(tm).
Thank Google for caches:
... More importantly, the phrase is used sarcastically to indicate the

subordinates such as staff in the workplace or children living at home.
