Thicko-Central
Working for a large London company, I suppose you could consider me an intelligent individual. I don’t mean that in an arrogant way, I just mean that I can’t be thick, can I? I mean, if I was thick I would find getting my head around the latest online recruitment software difficult, maybe even impossible. Come to think of it, if I was thick – or intellectually challenged, as is probably a bit more acceptable – I wouldn’t even be working here. I’d be working as a grave-digger, or I’d be stacking shelves at…A pound shop.
Wrong. On so many levels. Every day I interact with people at this firm – and others like it – who should not, technically, have been able to do up their shoe-laces upon putting their shoes on very clumsily. What I am trying to say is this: the myth that clever and intellectual people make up the world of commerce is a ludicrous and just plain wrong one. It is about as true as that old adage, “don’t go out in the rain without drying your hair first, you’ll catch a death”. And yes, come to think of it, I bet a thick office worker coined that, too.
You see, in fact, the office environment is made up of three different kinds of people: 1) people who are clever and can’t be bothered, so they expend barely any energy and just grunt at you. 2) People who struggle to do simple things and frequently lose the company money, although not by definition thick and 3) people stuck somewhere in the middle, the poor so and so’s.
Now, after my rant, I must get back to my work. The thick people are making everything very difficult today…
