Corporate politics amuse me. Perhaps because my anger is so used up on the subject, or perhaps it’s the entire lack of finesse posessed by those who are attempting to use office politics to get me into trouble.

Whatever. My tolerance for stupid has been reached, and this place isn’t worth my frustration.
