At the moment, I can totally relate to this. I submitted a proposal to try to improve something specific at work but basically my motivation is to try to get management out of my hair. I don't know if anything will come of it, but I am having ugly visions of how that conversation could go. <rolls eyes>
What kind of a blowhard would make bombastic claims of achievement against the odds?
Actually, I would. A lot of my "bombastic claims of achievement against the odds" are completely true. The problem is getting anyone to believe me. :-/
I don't believe that.
Do you need examples? ;-P
I was kidding. You should skim my submissions.
I kind of thought you might be. But who am I to pass up a chance to poke fun at myself? No sense letting you poke fun at yourself all by your lonesome. ;-)
