Honesty made me keep calling this Bob’s Blog.
I left for a week and you kept it going. Now it really is Bob’s Underground Seminar, BUGS.
So it is time for SysOps and Brain to change it.
I should be ashamed of myself! When I was in my early teens, my father insisted that real management meant that me and my siblings should be able to outwork every black or white worker on the brick plant without passing out.
They were tough but we had to be tougher.
I was put in the roughest places and I never “monkeyed out.” I was TOUGH. That made mercenary combat easy for me later.
I am impressed by that today. I say to myself, “WOW!”
Actually I say to myself, “WOW! That was really stupid! I am still suffering from the brain damage it caused, and my brain was a more precious resource than all of THEM put together!”
So I should be ASHAMED to OPENLY depend on Brain (sic) and SysOps.
I consider everything SysOps and Brain (sic) and Pain and Dave and the rest of you do to be what ***I*** do. After years of thinking about it, the old idea of management seems dumber and dumber to me. Instead of understanding the Wisdom of My Elders, experience makes me see it as stupider and stupider.
It AMAZES me that anyone should think that a high level manager should be COMPETING with The Talent.
But let me conclude on a somber note:
There is a nasty rumor going about that every time SysOp recommends something I say, “Yes, ma’am” and then grovel and whimper.
This is NOT true.
I NEVER whimper.
