and another new job
the journal of Michael Werneburg
Halifax, 2004.01.05
My first day on the new job. It was all orientation and an introduction to various corporate concepts. We were given a copy of the company's "values", which included such concepts as "integrity" and "employee development" and "continuous improvement". To these had just been added a sixth: "improving shareholder return". Is that a "value"? I don't know.
I do know that the head of the branch cites the Bible as his favourite book, and "moderation in war is imbecility" as his favourite quote. Also, I know that the team is very, very busy.
