Sabotage manual from 1944 advises acting like an average 2008 manager - Boing Boing

Sabotage manual from 1944 advises acting like an average 2008 manager - Boing Boing

Everything is Miscellaneous is one of my favorite books and a must for anyone in publishing or information work. The author, David Weinberger, has a hilarious and accurate portrayal of bureaucratic management practices as a form of sabotage. With thanks to Cory Doctorow for posting it.
