The Plan

[trevorZ]

In the beginning was the Plan.

And then came the Assumptions.

And the Assumptions were without form.

And the Plan was completely without substance, and

darkness was upon the face of the workers and they

spoke amongst themselves, saying, "It's a crock

of sh#t and it stinks".

And the workers went unto their supervisors and

said, "It's a pail of dung and none can abide its

odour"

And the supervisors went unto their managers and

said to them, "Its a container of excrement and it

is very strong, such that none may abide it".

And the managers went unto their directors and said

"It is a vessel of fertiliser and none may abide

its strength".

And the directors spoke amongst themselves saying

to one another, "It contains that which aids plant

growth and it is very strong".

And the directors went unto the vice-presidents and

said unto them, "It promotes growth and is very

powerful".

And the vice-presidents went unto the President and

said unto him,"the new plan wll actively promote

the growth and efficency of this Company and will

be most effective".

And the President looked upon the Plan and saw that

it was good.

And the Plan became policy.

And this my friends, is how sh#t happens.
