Management Fart

Yup, that pretty much sums up management. Just all fart. Had a lecture on strategy today. I don't think I've ever been clinically dead in this country before! Whoever said that if your strategy can't fit on the back of a business card, it won't work - was a genius! Seriously, how damn hard is it to make up a dumb strategy anyway? All you gotta decide is which person amongst the many you interact with you wanna screw. That's it. "Value Chain", "value propositioning" sheesh - fancy words to fill up a powerpoint slide. And couple that with the picture of a "dressed down" Greek statue with a smiley in the appropriate place that was part of the powerpoint slide, and you start wondering what the hell you're doing here!

I've said it before, and i'll say it again, and i'll probably say it till the cows come home (which , in my case is a ticket to the slammer, cos I don't own either a cow or a home) Formal education is an absolute, total and utter waste of time, money and a whole lotta trees!

I've been screaming myself hoarse about this for quite a few years now. Formal education is a jargon course, that is about it. I admit it has its uses, but the crap to content ratio is too damn high
