Work thought for the day: Excessive govenance focus on the known process is like the drunk looking for their car keys under a street lamp. "But you lost them over here" / "Yeah, but I can see over here!"
Participating in the work area decorations for Christmas. Not a grinch
Arguing over process changes without a process goal is like throwing darts at a blank wall and arguing over which is a bullseye
Saw a picture of Donald Trump in a tuxedo and my brain transposed him with Leslie Nielsen. Oops.

The Dead Weight (Pondus mortuus) is a resource-substitute that starves the Project without the Project knowing it is perishing.
The Scope Creep (Reperet scopo) is a parasite that causes Projects to collapse under their own weight
The All-consuming Meeting (Congressus totus-consumens) is another resource-competitor to the Project, which focuses on the environment, rather than the Project itself.
The Looming Deadline (Tempus advenientis) is an ambush predator that has a highly evolved camouflage technique.
The Code Fairy (Fairy codices) is a species of Fairy, a creature that feeds off the belief of other species.

Pushing their way through the thronging masses, Professor von Explaino and young Christoph force their way as politely as possible to the wings of the auditorium.
