Quote of the Week

I missed posting this on Friday, so there will be this post, and then a bonus quote. (Which has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that they're both from the same book, and that I couldn't decide between them...nope, not at all.)

"It is a terrible thing to be fired, like your parents saying you have to clean out your room and leave the family, and it's worse if the company happily continues on in your absence, not even noticing the difference. This is like passing your ex-family in the street and they're laughing and heading out to the movies. What you really want, following your sacking, is for the company to undergo a quick, public financial implosion directly traceable to your departure. But as a substitute, someone crying as you leave the building is pretty good."
- Max Barry, Company, p.35
