I try not to blog about consulting work, but this is too good. We are in the final stages of a project and are trying to determine who is going to be responsible for maintaining the deliverables after the project ends.
So we have a meeting about this and we go around the room listening to why everyone on our client’s side is completely unable to do this. And one person says, “I would love to take this on, but I might get promoted, and where would we be then?”
This is my new excuse for everything. “I’m afraid I can’t do that. I might get promoted.”
Why wasn’t this report filed?
I might get promoted.
Why did you miss that meeting?
I might get promoted.
Why are you wearing fuzzy bunny slippers and a bathrobe to the office?
I might get promoted.
