I sometimes wonder if this is the type of thing that led to my recent employment status. Not that I would conduct myself this way, but how many managers out there are covering their behinds instead of trying to solve the problem? Do we have any innovators out there? Are there people who like to solve mysteries, puzzles, and master the new trends? I’m sure there are some. Let’s hope Dilbert’s boss is in a minority. Having said that, this strip is always fun to laugh at!

Oh goodness! I blame this economy. You were some awesome talent – I got so pumped up after that session on sales you covered in one of our staff meetings. I *know* something great is going to come your way. (I am looking now too…) Prayers your way!

Thank Ruhiyyih! I’m praying for you too and so happy for you (moving back home, being close to Matt, etc.). I know something will come for all of us.
And after re-reading the post, I want to clarify for everyone out there that this post in no way, shape, or form was meant as commentary about my former organization or its managers–it was a general statement meant as a joke. 🙂
