 Posted: 08/06/05 - 23:04 Post subject: now hiring: "master planner"
so i'm searching for jobs on workopolis, and there it is "master planner".
qualifications: evil genius? not really sure.
either way - it occured to me...
how can you be a master planner?
i figure it's a one time gig. you come up with your master plan, and that's that.
planner implies that you'd be doing this more then once.
i ask - how can you come up with a master plan more then once?
either it's your master plan or it isn't. you don't have three master plans. there's no backup master plan - no failsafe. it's THE plan.
that being said, i should investigate, maybe they'll pay me lots of money for my master plan.
but let me tell you - i'm not working for any company that thinks you can come up with more then one master plan. that's just messed.

i read this.. looked away from the screen... my mom asked me something important - and i just started laughing. it was a delayed reaction.
but man that show is great.
mechie - i still contest that master planner implies plural, or they would say "some to create a master plan" or "master plan needed".

"Pinky! Are you pondering what I'm pondering?"

I know y'all are enjoying making jokes, and I am slacking in following suit, but just wanted to let you know we have a master planner in my office. He's a city infrastructure planner. He's actually my direct boss.

....and he's looking over your shoulder right now! Quick -- hit the Boss key! 
Blue -- what kind of work are you looking for, if not "master planner?"
