We have an intern in our office for the summer. Nice kid — fresh out of high school, and heading into a top college this fall.
Earlier, I overheard one of my colleagues (let's call him Fred) telling the intern how to handle an elaborate data-gathering project. At the end of his explanation, he actually said, "...so, if you could go ahead and do that, that'd be great."
"Hey, Fred," I called out from across the floor. "Did you see Office Space?"
"Yeah"
"You sound like Lumbergh."
This set off a round of laughter and five minutes of everybody doing their best Lumbergh impressions.
Fred no longer tells the intern to "go ahead" and do anything. Nor does he say that doing it would be "great".
Some great advice on how to start your own business online!
