The decisive farce.

"Ready. Relevant. Decisive. Join the [Insert Organization Name Here]"

I'm pretty most males of my age in my country would find this advertisement rather familiar, and would glady attest to its prevarication. I would not claim that what they said is absolutely untrue - in fact, there are perhaps traces of those claims - but I would gladly challenge their decisiveness.

Perhaps someone can prove me wrong? But before you do, please do not validate your arguement with stories of how your generation suffered in the past under the stringent and unreasonable treatment you recieved. Face it, this is 2008 if you are still living in the 1970's and yes, we are spoilt, all thanks to whom? It takes one generation to surfeit the next with an over-indulgence of everything you deem today as luxurious. "Lead by example", they call it.

Kind of went off topic.

Back to the advertisement. It is said that being at the top gives you the best view. True, but as you stand at the top, you scan an area far wider than your mind can handle and you tend to miss out details and whatever that remains hidden in caves. Perhaps people above are slightly complacent with what they have, thinking that what they see is what actually happens in the entire organization. Well, that is seemingly true because everyone works for the sake of impressing their superiors to climb their own ladders. And we all miss out our main goal in the process of impressing others.

Perhaps you should get yourself a pair of binoculars and see what's really happening "on the ground". (I hate it when people use this phrase incessantly without giving a d**m - at least be a little more sincere?)

Join you? Nope. Not in this lifetime. Nor the next. Never.

You cannot run such an organization with people who probably studied engineering and left their common sense in their storerooms so they could memorise their textbooks.
