The saddest epiphany of my life was when I realized
that the goal in modern society isn't Getting It Done
but playing the political games.  I've been avoiding
success ever since, and done a pretty good job of it.

Don't make yourself indispensible - that scares the hell
out of managers.  But it works out well if you happen to
be handy to have around, especially when the excrement
strikes the rotating ventilation device.
