Today's reading is from the Book of Corporate Life, Chapter 11, Verses 1-15:

1. In the beginning was the Plan.

2. Then came the Assumptions.

3. And the Assumptions were without form.

4. And the Plan was without Substance.

5. And darkness was upon the face of the Workers.

6. And Workers spoke among themselves saying, 'It is a crock of **** and it

stinks.'

7. And Workers went unto their Supervisors and said, 'It is a crock of dung

and we cannot live with the smell.'

8. And Supervisors went unto their Managers saying, 'It is a container of

organic waste, and it is very strong, such that none may abide by it.'

9. And Managers went unto their Directors, saying, 'It is a vessel of

fertilizer, and none may abide its strength.'

10. And Directors spoke among themselves, saying to one another; 'It

contains that which aids plant growth and it is very strong.'

11. And Directors went to Vice Presidents, saying unto them, 'It promotes

growth, and it is very powerful.'

12. And Vice Presidents went to the President, saying unto him 'It has very

powerful effects.'

13. And the President looked upon the Plan and saw that it was good.

14. And the Plan became Policy.

15. And that's how **** happens.
