Wild office workers gathered at the community coffee pot are
suddenly stalked by a lone manager hungry for juicy corporate rungs. The workers scatter; some diving behind
partitions, while others run for their cubicles, quickly trying to look
busy.
As is always the case, the weakest and slowest of the herd
is caught and taken down by the carnivorous manager. The chastising is not for the squeamish. When it is over and the manager has grown
weary and quite proud of her deed, she puffs out her mane and struts back to
her corner office.
The devastated worker whimpers. Small rivulets of dignity ooze from the gaping wounds in her ego. She struggles to carry the stacks
of useless reports she must quickly compile, complete with color presentations and totally fabricated statistics.
The general demeanor of the office is now back to
normal. Only a low murmur of gossip
remains and a faint, lingering aroma of burnt coffee.
This was a reenactment. No actual employees were harmed.
and that is the report that will be filed.
