The Scorecard

OK, here’s the scorecard. 179 Days
Now that “Wall Street got drunk” and destroyed the economy because of greed the American people will once again have to come in and bail out the politicians with their tax dollars. The taxpayer really doesn’t have a choice with this Congress; the ones chosen by some divine being - it seems that way because they don’t listen to the people who elected them. But when are we ever going to learn?
I overheard this great conversation at work yesterday. I wasn’t paying much attention so I didn’t hear what report they were talking about but my ears perked up when one of them said, “this time we are going to tell the truth.”
My workspace was moved from a quiet corner surrounded by my work group to a busy hallway in the center of the department, into a different division really, and while I’m no fan of office moves, this being my 6th in 4 years, this might be the most interesting place I’ve been moved to if I get to overhear conversations like that. It does feel a little like punishment for something.
I have this theory that female manages need to move staff around like they do their own furniture at home, it gives them a sense of power. Of course they are just being bullies but I can’t tell them that. I find an office move to be the absolute most unproductive management technique in existence, especially when working groups get mixed. I put it in the same category as gossip.
