You Might Work For the Government If...
- You understand the rationalization of an acronym comprised of acronyms.
- You can name the project leader of more than 10 projects including your own, but still can't explain in the simplest terms what they do.
- You know that the location of a meeting is directly related to its importance:
- A meeting at Fort Hood requires a subordinate or a contractor.
- The same meeting at Lake Tahoe requires your personal attention.
- You work for an acronym, on an acronym, and your job title is an acronym.
- You don't see anything wrong with attending a meeting on a subject you know nothing about.
- You feel you contributed to the meeting just by being there.
- You realize that a paperless office is impossible. Actually, you believe it is possible, just not in your office.
- When someone asks about what you do for a living, you lie.
- You keep documents/manuals on projects that have been long since canceled.
- You stop raising issues/problems because you know you will be the one answering them.
- Nepotism is encouraged.
