A Big Shout Out For...
..office politicians.
You sit there in silence while cutover chaos ensues all around. We think you are just minding your own business but in fact you are waiting, like a cat watching sparrows.
And then just when we feel we are getting a handle on issues you suddenly pounce over some minor breach of protocol, and suddenly instead of us making progress it's a cat fight, but you don't seem to give a toss how many get embroiled in it or how high the dust flies. You want to Make Your Point.
Bless.
So instead of fixing stuff I am now cooling down on the interweb. At your expense.
I've never walked out of a project over a spat. The mere knowledge that I could is enough to keep me here. It's like the Do or Die card in the board game "Colditz" that you simply never get to play. It's enough just to have it.
Actually the thought of walking out and getting my agent (who in 20 years of this game I rate the lowest I have ever dealt with) into a furious tizz - that actually gives me a little bit of wood.
