needless to say i will soon be firing this person
I can think of no better time to resurrect the ol' "my balls itch" board response."what's it like to be you today" is a new way someone has adopted of asking me how i am; they're trying to engage on a deeper level than "fine"

Last week we had a mandatory company-wide webinar on time management and I was totally multi-tasking during it, drafting a proposal on one monitor and listening to the webinar on the other. #NotSorryI am in "Dare to Lead" Training. 90 minutes every week.

That is s recycled classic. A former colleague had a caricature of such mushroom on the wall above his desk.My company just fired two VP level people. When I asked my manager what happened, he responded with “I’m a mushroom: I get fed shit and live in the dark.” I had never heard that one and while I found it funny, it wasn’t exactly inspiring.
