My boss got fired last week. Knowing that the rug can get pulled anytime is not a fun thing. I realize that it was a "power struggle" and the senior party won, but knowing that they will audit you until they find a mistake and then fire you for that is stressful. Doesn't seem fair, and I especially am appalled when the corporate battle axe lies to you and talks about ethics in the same speech.
Anyway, when she got done her reassuring speech, she said "Any questions?"
I had one. "I work for money rather than as an expression of altruism. Today is payroll deadline. Who will turn in our overtime sheets?"
It can, at times, be beneficial to seem a little simple.
