are they still in touch with reality?

i work for a company where if you ask for headcount, they will tell you to prepare a business case as justification, compute the exact headcount needed, set up multiple meetings with different people just to get approval, and you finally get that approval after much begging, they will give you exactly what you need

now, wait for a couple of months and you will observe that more work is added, after sometime you will have work of 2 people being done by 1

discussion points

when you're with office mates you talk about work

when you're with your basketball, airsoft or hobby buddies, you talk about basketball, airsoft or that hobby


i guess because those are the things you have in common, but wouldn't it be nice to talk about the things that you don't have in common?

have you ever had that feeling

of knowing what will be the outcome of something even though things are not going in favor of the outcome you forsee?
