THE PLAN
In the beginning was the plan, and then the specification. And the plan
was without form, and the specification was void. And darkness was
upon the face of the supervisors.
And they went to their division manager, and spake unto him, saying: "It
is a crock of shit, and it stinketh."
And the manager went to his operations manager, and spake unto him,
saying: "It is a crock of excrement, and none can abide."
And the operations manager wen to his regional vice president and spake
unto him, saying: "It is a container of excrement, and strong such that
none can abide before it."
And the RVP went to his assistant vice president and spake unto him,
saying: "It is a vessel of fertilizer, and none may abide its strength."
And the assistant vice president went to his vice president, and spake
unto him, saying: "It contains that which aids plant growth, and it is
very strong."
And the vice president went to his president, and spake unto him, saying:
"It promotes growth and is very powerful."
And the president went before his board of directors, which rules on high,
and spake unto them saying: "This powerful new plan will promote the
growth of this company."
And the board looked upon the plan,
and saw that it was good,
and so it came to pass.
