Management

Presenting a problem as a ‘challenge’ instead,
Keeping dashboards all green when they should be all red,
Hear a piece of bad feedback that a colleague may give,
Flip it round in a second, calling him ‘negative’.
Turn a deaf ear or blind eye to an issue or two,
Just so long as the issues can’t trace back to you,
Set the team stupid deadlines till they’re all pretty pissed,
But then make that a positive, cause you’re an optimist.
