Ok so I work for a small, relatively non-mega corporation. But holy guacamole can they cook up a scandal. Let's start this story off right: So the boss walks into my office. Not my boss, my boss's boss. Wanna go on some international travel? Next thing you know I'm on the plane flying to another country to watch him fire someone. Wheee.
Let's say it didn't go well. And recently a whole new baseline has been established for not going well, by the way. A baseline that involves post hoc discovery of a ghost corporation, usurpation of bank accounts, secondary computer network, physical occupation of our offices, pushing and shoving and namecalling, personal lawsuits, and um borderline extortion. Actually this scenario I just described only covers one aspect of the story. Sigh. Then there is a group of highly stressed people displaced by these activities and all the hours and effort of organizing a response to the aforementioned snafus.
Yeah. How much am I being paid again? Learning a lot, trying not to think about the magnitude of all of this. Occasionally spoiling myself by taking a longer shower, leaving a meeting to eat lunch, walking outside for a phone call. Ah the little things.
