Working slowly to justify your position

[Mose]

Sorry but you don't even know me.

We know all we need to know - you've a face like a bag of smashed crabs, you smell like bigfoot's dick and your work ethic sucks balls.

Seriously though, work to the best of your ability and ride a good reputation into a more engaging career. These small mindless games are a poor show and a minor profit inflation from a tulipty contract isn't worth it. A good attitude will pay dividends long term ime, an abundance of work from old clients and old managers moved on to new companies who want you back with no agent to play games, or a token agent with no power is much better than clock watching through crap boring work.
