I like this rant from a comment to a Cary Tennis column. Why must everything be efficient? I dunno. I don't want to be, I just want to be effective.

how many others out there feel like they are being victimized by
some colossal post-industrial conspiracy to make us all into the
most efficient little drones imaginable. Why the fuck is everyone
so concerned about efficiency? We need less efficiency, IMHO. Have
average people been rewarded for the vast "increase in
productivity" of the last 30 years or so? Why do we Americans
continue to chase the carrot that dangles in front of us? Are we
really that stupid? FFS, slow down and enjoy life. LW, are you
really scheduling cups of coffee? Maybe if your company still had a
decently equipped break room, you wouldn't have to.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/F0BEF77E-F670-4ADF-8FE4-86062A375225/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
