[QUOTE="CV355, post: 16065292, member: 181885"] Groups of women are as bad a groups of dudes- just different subject matter. Same lack of productivity. Herd mentality. It's easy to test the theory- if I were to walk through my office splurting out the word "fff...ff.f..ff... FFOOTBALL" while my eyes go crosseyed, spit flying everywhere, and arms flailing in the air, virtually everyone will start yakking about what some illiterate goon did over the weekend. "You see what ugg-ugg do? Ugg-ugg throw ball. Ook no catch ball. Me no like Ook." for hours. As much as I absolutely hated working for the man, we need more ruthless managers like my first boss. Just... to weed out the useless people clogging up the pipes of society. At my first job, sitting down anywhere was an instant firing. Moving too slow? Gone. He'd walk up behind you, grab you by your collar, throw your ass out the door and throw your last paycheck at you. I watched him do it many times- usually 3-4 times a week. New kid comes in, gets lazy, out he goes, paycheck for $3.50. I had 3 months to design $8M worth of systems, alone, from scratch, or the company would have been sued and many of us would have lost our jobs. That was on top of managing the engineering department. After materials started coming in, I helped build the systems because there wasn't enough time for perfect schematics. Believe me, it wasn't sitting in a comfy chair in an air conditioned office. To quote my wife: "He's telling the truth, and he's an idiot. I told him not to do it." I've done the mental and physical marathons. Physical hurts faster, mental fatigue hurts longer. [/QUOTE]
