It Sounds familiar to us (tell me anything new?)
*Source: Bonjour paresse
Here's the art & the importance of doing the least possible in the workplace and getting away with it. The bottomline is to do it with conviction. Read on.*
You are a modern day slave. There is no scope for personal fulfillment. You work for your pay-check at the end of the month & that's it.
It's pointless to try to change the system. Opposing it simply makes it stronger.
You can be replaced from one day to the next by any cretin sitting next to you. So work as little as possible.
Spend time (not too much, if you can help it) cultivating your personal network so that you're untouchable when the next restructuring comes around.
You're not judged on merit, but on whether you look & sound great.
Speak lots of leaden jargon: people will suspect you have an inside track
Never accept a position of responsibility for any reason.
You'll only have to work harder for what amounts to peanuts.
Make a beeline for the most useless positions, (Strategy, R&D), where it is impossible to assess your 'contribution to the wealth of the firm'.
Once you've found one of these plum jobs, never move. It is only the most exposed who get fired.
Learn to identify kindred spirits who, like you, believe the system is absurd through discreet signs (quirks in clothing, peculiar jokes, warm smiles).
Be nice to people on short-term contracts. They are the only people who do any real work.
Tell yourself that the absurd ideology underpinning this corporate bulls cannot last for ever. It will go the same way as the materialism of the communist system.
