Two hours of cranial-rectal inversion

Boardroom table.
Leather swivel chairs.
Ties.
Be-suited tweeps fighting like bull dogs over worthless words in useless documents.

Any questions?
Good.

I'll take, "Pointless Administrative Bullshit" for $500, Alex!

What. does that mean you failed to seamlessly customize interdependent products so that you may professionally build value-added paradigms while maintaining the highest standards today?

What kind of pointless administrator are you? hee hee.

I am still trying to get my head around our new ISO concept that I must refer to the people whom I whack with the big legal stick as "customers".

Cranky.... that would be correct.
An extra $500 if you can define "Vision statement"...... without profanity, as I failed to do.

Lin... I walked in... and there were brand new 'baby poop green' leather swivel chairs with high backs and five way adjustable seats, each having at least four inches of padding for tie wearing lard butts.

There were also a gaggle of tie wearing lard butts using said chairs.

I almost choked on my coffee with laughter. Covered by coughing up some breakfast.

Once again, I sat in the back, and once again the meeting director kept asking my opinions. He said I was being 'unusually quiet'. I replied that we had spent 20 minutes of a 90 minute meeting deciding how long to talk about each topic, and I thought some verbal reclusion on my part was in the public interest.

Blink.....
Blink.....

That's OK -- the Dean decided that "meeting" was a negatively-charged word.

Now we have "hubs of understanding."

GAG!

Thats fine, as long as I can leave my 'food residue contribution' on his shoes before I leave.
