the keys to success

If you want to get ahead at work, I have the key to your success right here.


You have to make charts and distribute them to everyone.

It’s true. These MF’s around here don’t do shit but make charts that show
everyone else what they have to do. For example, we had agreed that there
was no need to come in over the weekend to work. So to impress bossman,
this MF, comes in over the weekend, and makes a pretty chart.

We had a meeting last week that gave everyone their individual tasks to
complete and the dates they would be due, so everyone already knew what they
had to get done. But this MF, comes in a makes a chart for that shit. The
headings were simple enough: Tasks, Assigned To:, Date due, and Comments. I
have a comment for your ass, what the hell is YOUR task?? And don’t you have
a wife at home you should be spending time with over the weekend?

But that is what playing the game is all about, and I’ll give him credit, he
plays it well. Make a chart, send a copy to the entire universe in an
e-mail dated Sunday night 7pm to show your dedication to the firm,
everyone’s happy, you look like the man.
