I am applying for the consultant position of Office Manager for which I will audition. I am undeniably qualified to deal with nitwits and idiots I will immediately classify as 'twits.' My solution to deal with those people is fair It may not be righteous, but I don't care. If your company is greedy to make money, it's ok with me. Just give me my check, honey. I don't browbeat employees with a big stick when they come in late or say they're sick I'll crack the whip on any numbskull at work and there's one less lazy fool I'll call a jerk. If you think my method is severe over kill, you're right, because I don't show good will to jackasses who keep making me mutter words you would only hear in a street gutter. I'll get control and do what needs to be done and I promise I'll try not to pull out a real gun. I'll need some handcuffs and maybe a jail cell. Give me free rein and everything will be swell. My resume' experience speaks for itself. Once, I've even fired an Elf on the Shelf I did it without a good reason or just cause so you can waiver that harrassment clause. You can hire me now for a trial run. Keep me on or fire me, but I'm the one you need to give brainless creatures the boot... not due to my work ethic, cuz I don't give a hoot.

I can relate to this, Lin, it makes me think of some of the nitwits at the IRS I have to deal with from time to time; the government certainly doesn’t hire the cream of the crop. John

That's for sure, John. It amazes me how many people, in many industries, are completely inept and remain on the job.

Haha, many firms carry lots of dead wood, used to grieve me to see them getting away with things. Tom. PS, when can you start ?
