Signs and Portents

August, 2007 :

All hell is breaking loose at the emporium at the moment, there are people running around like headless chickens trying to do the impossible in the shortest possible time.

Yes, here at ground zero, not only do we attempt the impossible, but we deliver the impossible yesterday. In fact, we can do the improbable and the impractical quicker than any other company and we specialize in the incompatible and the incomplete.

Circle the wagons and send out the crap, even if it’s not finished, we’ll finish it, if it’s deemed as questionable quality, if a deadline is looming, we’ll buy it off.

Ignore the poor little children, hanging upside down in frozen fir trees while their teddies burn on the tarmac, ignore perceived danger and pilot and passenger safety because we must relax our outdated standards.

Hey, don’t forget that there’s a schedule to keep here, an important date is looming and the team must meet it.

(touches nose and points)

You got that one right, Hector!
