It's Called Managing!



I think the best part is the "Thanks for asking." at the end. HA!

I think that's why I enjoy Dilbert so much. :-)

Luke,

So I am glad I bowed out after all! And actually, I'm impressed that you've used it already. I knew deep down that it would probably only get played about once a year at our house anyway. :)

*ps* I love Dilbert!

Dilbert is a reflection of how much of office/cubicle politics play out in practice--uncomfortably honest although exaggerated. It is unfortunately because this is what causes US corporations to under-perform and fail to be good stewards of the resources they control. What is sad is many Christians go along with this charade because they are more interested in promotions and higher salaries because that is how they often evaluate each other on a spiritual level (they are born in the "right" place with the "right" family name, successful in business, rich, and therefore must be good candidates to be great spiritual leaders). Although successful people in the world can also happen to also be mature servants of Christ, many of His teachings seem to suggest that the opposite will be true due to the divided nature of what people tend to strive for on a daily basis--that wealth can give the illusion of solid spiritually based lives and it is a deception to link the two together in such a way to suggest a true cause and effect relationship. Christians today are given the opportunity to take of different approach but few do--it is one of Christianity's dirty little secrets. Both liberal and conservatives and different parts of His body (what you may call denominations) struggle with this phenomenon.
