4: "I'm really into spirtuality" Guru-wannabe

This Bad Executive is a risk to any corporation that wants to get anything done.

Here's the facts. India is a large country on the southern rim of the Eurasian continent. Its peoples worship several key religions all of which have developed over many, many, many centuries. Through this long history of ancient reverence, India's religions often couple human, the Earth and every living thing on it in deep, abiding harmony. Somewhere along the way, probably thanks to The Beatles, westerners with a yearning to avoid admitting they were raised in catholic - protestant - anglican austerity decided that passage to India was a great way to like rilly, rilly get spirituality into their meaningless, capitalistic existence.

This, of course, had nothing to do with the fact that part of gaining spirituality also coincided with a much increased incidence of getting laid.

Somehow, the "I'm really into spirituality" Guru-wannabe got confused that the workplace was in need of a similar regression.

It isn't. It's about putting effort into making money.

And, thanks to political correctness, the amount of casual sex to be had in the average corporation has also radically decreased.

Sometimes, change isn't a good thing.

Often seen with:
  • A distracted air of transcendental otherness - typically in meetings where key decisions as to the future survival of the company are under discussion.
Tell-tale signs:
  • Office smells of sandalwood and Patchouli Oil
  • High possibility of a little water sculpture ornament on the bookcase
  • Check for buddhist prayer gongs directly underneath computer screen
Favourite Saying:
  • "OK... Let's breath for a moment... Ommmmmmm... Ommmmmmm..."
Puts faith in:
  • Rebirth as a better, more worthwhile being thanks to not playing office politics
  • Whatever coloured wristband Madonna might be wearing at the moment
