The Dark Side


the cube monkeys have been in fear of employment as of late...seems this blog might have leaked to management and on top of that we flat out dont do our jobs very well. seems we all have attitude problems. In all seriousness it's pretty amazing these days of what corporate America expects of you. It's not just job performance that matters. Even if you outperform you peers if they appear of have drank more kool-aid then your ass its you who gets the walking papers. A history teacher once told the class that it was perception, not reality, above all else that mattered in shaping history. Nothing could be more true in the cube monkey world. piss off just one person by telling them like it is and instantly you have made an enemy out of them and those that they influence. Working here is constant damage control and continual misinformation distribution in the form of fake smiles and doing what it takes to not have an enemy. If you cant play this game, you're fired...

Then again this does have important benefits, first and foremost is the impressive 4 month average turnover rate. it gives me the opportunity to really influence those around me and shape their time here...

I welcome the newbies by my casual bitching about the job...planting the seed of hate and disdain for this is what makes me feel like I am changing lives for the better. Come to the dark side, where sanity makes a comeback and men behave as anything but cube monkeys
