Zman Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 And then Senior Management who sponsored (well managed) project are fired.... Boy I wish. Where I work they get promoted and probably even a pay raise. After all, the project is taking three times as long due to their incompetence so doesn't Senior Mgmt deserve three times as much.

+ MasssageGuy Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Crony Capitalism is rampant that is for sure. The stories we all could tell! I was on a consulting gig a couple of years ago when the first movie of "Horrible Bosses" came out and I LMAO so much. I'm sure others in the theater thought I was very odd. Then again, I am. You need a sense of humor to survive the crazy work environments. AdamSmith, Zman and + quoththeraven 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She has a point, though, whereas public nudity at the golf course is generally frowned upon while golf balls are abundant.
