No machine can do the work of one extraordinary man. " - - Elbert Hubbard So, in the case of my company, how many machines are needed to do the work of fifty <em>incompetent</em> men? Just curious. It doesn't even need to be a machine, necessarily. An inanimate object, like a rock or pile of grass clippings, would be just as productive I think. Today’s Quote:

" - - e e cummings This quote is especially poignant, considering our company is insolvent and near bankruptcy. At least we have a sense of humor about it.

The city has decided to make a completely unuseable intranet that adds nothing to the employees expereince. It does however notify me to every time some random country road is going to be closed for one hour in the middle night. Apparently the main function of my position is to always know the answer when someone asks me if the south fork of james st is open at 2 in the morning. My favorite feature of the intranet is the career advancement link. I clicked on this the other day and it took me to a completely blank page. This is perfect because it shows me the reality of my future career right there in a simple white screen. I respect nothing more than a company that can get straight to the point. No beating around the bush they know I'm going no where. I love the post, my own personal intranet is through the city.
