When your Maximum Honcho starts using "reorganization" and "committee" in the same sentence, it's time to stock up on barf bags.
When it turns out that all members of the committee are mid-level managers from the front office, check to make sure the barf bags are in the office and that no guns, nooses, or poisons are anywhere near to hand.
When you read the committee report and they spend the first two-thirds of it telling which offices were represented and how many meetings they held, for all the world as if holding a meeting was some sort of accomplishment in itself, you might as well start puking now. No need to wait to read their conclusions. Which were:
1. Put everything back the way it was before the last reorganization.
2. Create 21 new higher-level front office management positions and promote current mid-level front office managers into them.
How can I be accused of cynicism when the bastards keep on proving me RIGHT?
