It's a hangover from my professional days. The best quote from one of my
managers ever was "Geez! You're so **** hard to manage, but we don't
want to lose you!". I had a rep as being um... "independent". Never wore
ties... until they were sure I wouldn't and then I showed up with one
just to throw them off-kilter.
My best quote ever (in the presence of 200+ members of the organization
in which I had some responsibilities):
VP: Bill, why do you ask such tough questions?
ME: You know what a totem pole is?
VP: Yes, so?
ME: Well, think about it. When you're the bottom man on the totem pole
and you look up, all you can see is a$$holes above you (said with a
perfectly straight face).
VP et al: <*uproarious laughter*>
The hoomon brain is a wonderful associative processor. Sometimes I think
mine is a little warped.
