Workplace ecard: 'They say it's our fear of failure that holds us back. But I blame Human Resources for hiring stupid middle-managers.'' Ecard image showing: 'They say it's our fear of failure that holds us back. But I blame Human Resources for hiring stupid middle-managers.''

About This Card

‘I no longer work in an office environment: people couldn’t handle my realness. It’s a pity because I really enjoyed it, especially ‘Mysterious Fire Mondays.’ I miss the middle-management types, mostly. I miss seeing the good-natured fear in their eyes whenever I visited their houses late at night to remind them that ’everybody sleeps sometime’.

from the newsletter

Scalping houses is a national pass-time in Australia. Older Australians buy up all the houses and force younger people to pay them stupid amounts of rent. I don’t respect it; it’s a nasty business for nasty people, and lead paint is almost certainly a factor.
