The Master of Boxes

“Are All Managers Born Useless? Or are they crafted thus? In Management School, you are taught to be as listening and as flexible as a laminate bench top. To steer your staff to misery, burn them over, turn them over, watch them slink out the door broken and busted. Then you can push the knife into allergy-free cake on Mental Health Day.” 

Not my words. A transcript was passed to me from a harried reporter wishing anonymity. He’d interviewed an enigmatic figure known as the Master of Boxes, a significant figure in business and government circles of higher management. 

Contained in this document are the thoughts and insights, in as true and accurate a transcript as possible, of the Master of Boxes. 

In the words of the reporter passing the papers over to me. “May God help us all!”
