Some of the most educated people I know are complete dumbasses when it comes to solving practical problems. Sad but true.

Pfff! You should be running the company by now. 39?! 39 and you aren't in charge yet? Obviously not back-stabbing enough... did you learn nothing from civ.

And... congrats, naturally.

Switch to Communism. When I played civ2 I never used republic or democracy and I always had research rates of 3-4 turns.

I learned pretty early on that I'd rather play civ, go fishing, and spend time with Mrs Horse and the kids than go to the top and get an ulcer.

Well, at least you have some lackeys to shove around. Consider trading them in for another species though. Humans take too long to breed.

Imps on the other hand.... you could have an army of darkness in a matter of months and STILL have plenty of time to go fishing.

If it really bothers you then open the cheat mode, select scenario parameters and toggle the option called something like 'AI WWII only total war'. This prevents either Republic or Democratic governments from interfereing with your warmongering.

Of course... part of the point of those governments is that the citizens are supposed to have the freedom to prevent you from making war but... well... what do people know. KILL KILL KILL ( ... to quote King Lear... yes ).

is it one of those positions, that didn't exist before, so that you'd be happy and don't realise you should've been promoted years ago and now you make less money than you're supposed to?

I think he's Undersecretary of State for Dingo Control, or something.

Congrats Mr.AH..(you do know the term of edearment for AH when associated with management..A$$-H__@..I mean..sad but true..best bosses are butts!!

....and as a fellow manager, I do indeed concur..outsourcing is good for some things but overall a well oiled, efficient and productive staff is much better!

ya outsourcing is one of the biggest crocks ever. You end up paying some consultant mega bucks for something you could have done yourself at a fraction of the cost.

Or they do reports that tell you the bleeding obvious.

Don't start me talking
I could talk all night
My mind goes sleepwalking
While I'm putting the world to right

Called careers information
Have you got yourself an occupation?

Oliver's army is here to stay
Oliver's army are on their way
And I would rather be anywhere else
But here today

There was a checkpoint Charlie
He didn't crack a smile
But it's no laughing party
When you've been on the murder mile

Only takes one itchy trigger
One more widow, one less white nigger

Oliver's army is here to stay
Oliver's army are on their way
And I would rather be anywhere else
But here today

Hong Kong is up for grabs
London is full of Arabs
We could be in Palestine
Overrun by a Chinese line
With the boys from the Mersey and the Thames and the Tyne

But there's no danger
It's a professional career
Though it could be arranged
With just a word in Mr. Churchill's ear

If you're out of luck or out of work
We could send you to Johannesburg

Oliver's army is here to stay
Oliver's army are on their way
And I would rather be anywhere else
But here today.


Stuff like that Skank.

Well I did know someone of whom it was said he got to the top because he never did anything wrong.
