A lot of people can’t tell the difference between a turd and a faberge egg.
One-half of the employer/employee relationship is paying good money to get their faberge egg polished.
The other half of the employer/employee relationship is polishing a turd.
You can learn valuable turd-polishing skills at Excrement University.
And when the boss sees his faberge egg all shiny like that, he’ll want to bring in the reflectometer and the gaussometer and the flensometer and measure the brightness and ductility and chatoyance. Put those numbers on the wall! Tell the board about them!
I’d rather have a job that lets me put a dent in the universe than have a job that lets me pound out the dents in the universe.
