TMA, where you will follow these rules.
TMA, where new rules are made everyday.
TMA, where you will follow the new rules even if you were not aware of them.
TMA, where there are unwritten rules.
TMA, where you adjust your life is dictated under these written and unwritten rules.
TMA, where rules rule.
TMA, where rules are made by the ONE ruler.
TMA, where rules are not made up to ensure justice, but to ensure you are punished.
TMA, where rules don't mean anything if the ruler deems fit.
TMA, where if they don't find anything wrong, you are in trouble.
TMA, where if you make a mistake you are expected to fail the same way repeatedly.
TMA, where they will ensure their equipment remain intact, although they don't mind your life being ruined.
TMA, where in case of doubt about your mistakes, they will make it sounds convincing.
TMA, where the only thing that records your data is your personal file containing all your "hickups", this file also helps keep track of your working days.
TMA, where you are expected to write a report "well in advance", before the incident happens.
TMA, where teamwork is absolutely essential, it allows you to blame someone else.
TMA, where you will always be labelled a complete failure no matter how hard you work, atleast you will be served as a negative example.
TMA, where middle managers don't say a word till the meeting is over; then only are they stamped as being "wise".
TMA, where managers are as vague as possible, this prevents irritating others.
TMA, where everyone loves a deadline, eespecially when they make the "whooshing" sound as they pass by.
TMA, where you tell what you need, and they tell you how to get along without it.
TMA, where you are always labelled to have an "attitude" problem, but they never have a perception problem.
TMA, where you work on a keyboard without an "escape" key.
TMA, where a pat on the back is only a few centimetres from a kick in the butt.
TMA, where you should never be irreplaceable, if you can't be replaced you will never get promoted.
TMA, where after any salary raise, you will have less money at the end of the month than you did before.
TMA, where when bosses talk about improving productivity, they are never talking about themselves.
TMA, where if at first you don't succeed, try again. Then quit. No use being a damn fool about it.
TMA, where to err is human, to forgive is not our policy.
TMA, where if it wasn't for the last minute, nothing would get done.
TMA, where the last person that quit or was fired will be held responsible for everything that goes wrong.
