It sounds like something Putrid Poisonous Professor Pam Pending could slot straight into! lol
But she must be given the biggest stick to poke with.
Giggling aside - if she gets a job on the strength of that above excuse for wit I might have to stop contributing to Anorak and go back to playing with Google Earth!
Oh yeah! My boss talks about synergies and paradigms too, but he does it so convincingly and seems to actually enjoy it.
He also has a very sincere suit, I lurch around my lab in jeans, trainers, and a white coat (mad scientist hair too) now I need an assistant named Igor
We have a weekly staff meeting, half of us dont go to it, we’re “busy”.
I didn’t go to the trouble of getting a PhD so I could spend my time sitting in a room being lectured by a business graduate
So there!
Sincere suit….. that’s the kind of clothing your grandad wore to church.
Sober, subdued, dignified, the kind of suit that makes you want to believe what the wearer is saying.
Needless to say I dont wear one of those… I also think I look a bit like a cross between Albert Einstien and a garden gnome.
Not sincere at all!
I will change my name to Igor if you provide scones and real coffee for the weekly meeting which I could attend on your behalf. I like a mid morning nap.

coffee and donuts?

Insults. Why?
September 8th, 2008 at 9:49 am
Insults later, caffeine and carbs first…mind you I can be quite disgusting and dunk my donuts or rather my doughnuts

Oh, I do love a meeting–where else to play “Bullshit Bingo”?
“Powerful.” “Impactful.” “Paradigm.” “Strategic.” “Synergy.” BINGO!
Who’s buying drinks?

Looking forward to the New Anorak, when will it be here?

I defy you to identify anything more sincere than grey flannel.
