I am a little confused. We had an all-hands [on deck] meeting at work today and since my little corner of Spacely Sprockets has just undergone a reorg, I figure that I had better attend. As it turned out there were to be had no momentous announcements, just the usual work harder, work smarter or else BS. The guy who called the meeting is pretty new to the company, so I was expecting more than just the usual corporate mumble-jumble and buzzwords, but I guess that he has already had enough of the Kool-Aid for any hope of that. He went on for two hours. Hence this post’s title, “The Pointy Part of the Sphere”. He probably said “The Pointy End of the Spear” and I just misheard him. The audio on the VTC was pretty awful. That would have made a lot more sense, but he could have just been making a joke. I sort of feel like Gilda Radner’s SNL sketch character Roseanne Roseannadanna now and must of course say, “Never mind.”
