The Finer Points of Pointy Hair

The Stalwart Guide to Management

Mickey Mouse As I sat in my cube I had a clear view from the corner of two other quadrants of the fourth floor of the tower. There was a commotions spreading through the building like a wave building and breaking. I was paying attention when the front reached me. A trusted colleague walked by, "Pssst. The executive manager is on the way and he's pissed. Really pissed. Clean up your cube and sit up straight."

So, I quickly shoved all papers into a drawer, turned around and typed like the ultra busy professional that I was. Eventually a gaggle of suits swarms by and the executive manager comments on my ability to code as he watches over my shoulder at my work. I politely acknowledge his comments and the group continues on.

A few hours pass, and I get a "Mandatory Meeting Notice"-- in 10 minutes. We all gather in the room and look about confused as to what is going on. No one seems to be in the know. The executive manager steps in and proceeds to chew us out for a good 20 minutes. Then the senior staff member raises his hand and asks, "Could you please give me some details about the incident this is about?"

The senior executive turns to him and says, "I'll tell you what this is about. I've been hitting the help key on my computer all morning and not one of you came to help."

There was a stunned silence. Then simultaneous laughter. He left, red faced.

The good thing about government jobs, is there is always another division to transfer to. That senior executive was gone within the week.
