THE PLAN

In the beginning was the Plan.

And then came the Assumptions.

And the Assumptions were without form. And the Plan was without substance.

And darkness was upon the face of the Workers.

And the workers spoke among themselves, saying, "This is a crock of shit, and it stinks."

And the Workers went unto their Supervisors and said,

"It is a pail of dung, and we can't live with the smell."

And the Supervisors went unto their Managers, saying,

"It is a container of excrement, and it is very strong, such that none may abide by it."

And the Managers went unto their Directors, saying, "It is a vessel of fertilizer, and none may abide its strength."

And the Directors spoke among themselves, saying to one another, "It contains that which aids plant growth, and it is very strong."

And the Directors went to the Deputy Ministers, saying unto them, "It promotes growth, and it is very powerful.."

And the Deputy Ministers went to the Minister, saying unto him, "This new plan will actively promote the growth and vigor of the company with very powerful effects."

And the Minister looked upon the Plan and saw that it was good.

And the Plan became Policy.

And that, my friends, is how shit happens.
