That Effing Word - ‘Passion’

If this is your first visit at iScatterlings, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

What is it about? What is this ‘passion’ we are supposed to espouse daily about our work, our career our customers, the company and stuff?

Where did this notion that I need ‘passion’ first arise? Who was the person that kickstarted this ludicrous proposition that the workforce needs ‘passion’ to make the wheels of industry grind along with less noise and turn an easier profit for the fatcats?

Bring me the head of the fuckwit who coined this phrase because I want him or her to see how much ‘passion’ Financial Directors wield when it comes time to RIF (Reduction in Force) staff and in turn to attend a gathering of ex-staff who have lost their jobs due to the ‘passionate’ demands of the fatcats wanting “scales of economy” to bring about increased ROI and most ‘passionately’ of all - a fatter bonus payout.

Anytime you want to talk to me about ‘passion’ it better be around about bedtime. Otherwise go whistle in the wind because that word means nowt to me at work.
