        <description><![CDATA[This is the middle management guy who lies to his superiors about the work progress of lower-ranked employees in other departments.  He knows that upper management has no contact with these lower employees so he can say whatever he wants.  He circumvents the normal, public communication channels, like emails with CC to everyone involved.The treasoner therefore makes his own department appear to have all its work in order while the other departments get reprimanded by the clueless upper management.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[I like light duty blogs every once in awhile. Much better than those that pretend to throw around solutions that don't work in real life. There's no way to succinctly explain how to handle what amounts to office politics. Would this blog have been better if it threw around every industry buzzword or just tell it like it is? You will encounter these types of people. Perhaps you're supposed to be adult enough to know how to handle them. A capacity for humor goes a long way.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Isn't it sad that you thank someone for making a point that seemed obvious right at the beginning?  Some people don't want to do ANY work, they want others to spell everything out for them.I read your article under the heading &quot;informative&quot; and &quot;entertaining&quot;.  The way it was written suggested that.  Clearly some thought it had great importance, and therefore felt lacking when they couldn't determine their reason for reading it.There's heaps of info floating around the Internet that's of no &quot;lasting value&quot;, (sorry Toni), but rather has an immediate response upon the reader, who then moves onto something else.Not everything we write, or read, must have an instructional function.  What a boring world it would be were that to be so.Consider the writings of Dickens.  What's the point nowadays?  There isn't any - the specifics were directed at a social structure that is different today, so now we just have &quot;informative&quot; and &quot;entertaining&quot;.Shhhheeessshhhh!!!!!!!!!!  C'mon people, do your own thinking for a change.]]></description>
