The rules

and the rules for surviving the rules:

1. there are no rules but there are plenty of lists.


2. A list is not necessarily in order.

6. Order is determined by the limitations of the list writer.

3. Necessity is not a part of order.

4. Expediency is not urgency.

5. Efficiency is not expedient, but is usually dependant upon the availability of paper needed for faxes and emails.

6. Efficacy is not efficient.

7. Circumstances beyond your control are not expedient nor urgent unless there is a backup plan.

8. Paperwork is not to be viewed as work, only a documentation of the thought process used in avoiding work, thus billing and pay scales are affected accordingly.

9. Defending your thought process can only be accomplished by filling out the paperwork efficiently, but not honestly.

10. Honesty has no place in business relations except as a ploy to throw your opponent and or competitor off the track of what you are really thinking.

11. Every one of your co-workers is in competition with you.

12. Even you are in competition with your efficiency review.

13. Burn after reading this. You Never Saw It.
