Early Allium

Today has been a day where confronting stupidity has been a major theme.

There is absolutely no point in pointing out that stupid ideas are stupid.  You just get ignored if you do that.

Instead you just have to marvel at a company that forces managers to save money by not holding conferences anywhere other than in-house and makes sure that they are not allowed to order in house catering.  And they do this at the same time as initiating a project to roll out our New Slogan (you know, the one they gave to an external company to design and are now pushing it onto every part of our intranet and and anywhere else where they can stick it).

And because we are a modern company, our new slogan is not in German.  It's what's called "Neudeutsch". 

Although English is much more accurate.  

And our new motto (complete with a shitty new graphic) is the outstanding "Next Level".

So it's no longer a stupid, oft repeated cliche from cooking/gardening/building programmes.  It's next level geniuses at work.

This level of genius is something that has not been granted to me.  That's quite reassuring.
