   working at a company where ideas are hoarded and guarded is not a good company to work. maybe you have to do one of those six sigma black belt management implementations.

   Giving away a copy of the new Working Daze book to one random person who leaves a comment. (Yes, also giving away one to somebody who leave a comment on Facebook.)

   Rita lives in a world of her own.

   @Tog
   Wonder if she ever realizes she is the only one in that world :o)

   A chance for a free book for a comment… Cool. I’m glad I’ve never worked with/for a Rita. I feel very fortunate. I did work in a government agency that was very cutthroat and the battles between departments just grew more and more bitter and political. Major power struggles. Glad to leave that. Work at a great place for some time now.

   WooHoo! Free book…………………………….um, why are you giving it away? Is it autographed by Rita, maybe?

   No, by Sal. Melvin offered to autograph it, but then we’d have to pay you to take it.

   Dana, quick! Make that call upstairs!

   No, wait… sometimes the devil you know is better than the unfamiliar devil.

   Rita is predictable and manageable, at least!

   Couldn’t you at least PRETEND it was Dana or Carolina?

    Maybe it will be. John has the books, so he’s in control of that aspect. Maybe it’ll have HIS autograph. That’ll make it a keeper.

    Working Daze just might be the Dilbert of the 21st century. I love it.

    By coincidence, I just listed an “intro to management” guidebook on my Half.com store.

    To me, it was redundant given that I still have most of my textbooks from my MBA training.

    I get the feeling, though, that certain parties here (like Rita) could use it to remember just what it is that they’re supposed to be doing.

    Isn’t it odd for Rita to phrase it that way? Most Bosses like this (qv. Pointy-Haired Boss) don’t know that they’re clueless.

    She’s proud, and a little dizzy. Might need to nap it off.
