The worst feeling in the world is when you get to work on Monday and you don't even make it to lunch before you start thinking about Friday.

I had one of my favorite kind of meetings today. The kind where the person running it doesn't really know what they are talking about, but wants to show that they have power so they don't let people who do know what they are talking about (such as your faithful blogger) talk. Every time it ended up meaning that a meeting should really have only been a two email exchange is now an hour and half long.

All this leads me to ask you, which would you rather have: someone who doesn't easily grasp concepts but is motivated to be a good employee and politically savvy or someone who isn't very motivated and thinks politics are BS, but can easily grasp concepts and boil down problems to solutions quickly.

If you have read this blog for more than a day, you can probably guess which camp I fall in. The thing is in corporations say they want efficiency what they really mean is they want someone else accountable for their actions.
