The Creation (of the plan)

In the beginning was the plan
And then came the assumptions
And the assumptions were without form
And the plan was completely without substance
And the darkness was upon the faces of the workers.
And they spoke to their group heads,
Saying:
"It is a crock of shit, and it stinks."

And the group heads went to their
section heads and said:
"It is a pail of dung, and none may
abide the odour thereof."

And the section heads went to their
managers and said to them:
"It is a container of excrement, and it is
very strong,
such that none may abide by it."

And the managers went to their
Director and said unto him:
"It is a vessel of fertilizer, and none
may abide its strength."

And the Directors went to their
Vice-President and said:
"It contains that which aids plant
growth and is very strong."

And the Vice-President, went to
the President, and
said to him:
"It promotes the growth and it is very
powerful."

And the President went to the Chairman
And said to him:
"This powerful new plan will actively
promote the growth and
efficiency of the company and this
area in particular."

And the Chairman looked upon
the plan,
and saw that it was good
and the plan becarne policy.
