Not My Job Moments Of Unprofessional Absurdity

We are creatures of great focus. Meaning, we can only be asked to do one thing at a time. If they say "paint lines on the road" by god we'll paint those lines. But nobody said anything about painting those lines well. Or straight. But at the end of the day, you can bet your bottom dollar that those lines will be painted. They might look like varicose veins, and it's quite possible that they'll even be running over some roadkill, but the lines will be there. Anything else is presumably someone else's job.

So partake with us in this journey to do the bare minimum. Just enough to keep yourself employed, but not enough to be considered respectable or even really all that competent. Life is about balance. The balance between "total garbage" and "barely acceptable."

It's a race to the bottom, and that's the only thing we've ever excelled at.
