Great twist on the saying, and a wonderful use of double meanings there. Ah, the corporate life…I avoided that fate like the plague.

Nice double meaning! I really think people need to stop agreeing with bad ideas, be bold! Politely. Politely bold. Then maybe things would work, corporately.
It’ll never happen, but hey.

I like the way you incoroprated the phrase into your story, like a moral. This sorta reminds me of the beginning of the book So Yesterday by Scott Westerfeld. That was one good book.

very nice!

nice board room drama. Its not just the corporate world.. Its the underworlds too. Good illustration of life in the corporate world. The manager seems almost humane and cares about his staff. That is until his boss has him in the clenches with a cliche.
