Alice : My strategy is to work like a paranoid beaver during the merger.
Surely my productivity will be noticed and rewarded when the downsizing begins,
Man: and who is alice?
The Boss: Im pretty sure thats the bald guy with glasses.
The merger will obliterate the connection between my performance and rewards.
My arms hang like wet ropes. there is no reason to move again.
Dilbert: From 9 - 930 I rotated 3 dimensional objects in my mind.
My ears hang like wet ropes.
The Boss: The woods are full of people who want your job.
These days you can't shake a tree without three or four engineers falling out.
Id love to stay and chat but I need to go motivate the other headcounts.
