Topic: antidisestablishmentarism | |
---|---|
The movement which apposes the removal of an established authority from the position which that established authority now holds. Usually the right of that established authority to hold this position has only been assumed by that authority to be their right.
I run across a lot of this at work. |

Have you ever been privy to a place of work where there are too many Chiefs and not enough Indians?

antidisestablishmentarianismistically
![]() in a antidistestblishmentarian manner; Being opposed to the belief that there should no longer be an official church a the country. The word is sometimes quoted as the longest word in the English language. There is a town in Wales with a larger number of letters, but it is a place name, not a word. Let's get one thing straight: while antidisestablishmentarianismistically is a real word, that has been really used with real meaning, it is mainly known for being an extremely long word. |

It can be constructed further to 'propseudocontraneoantidisestablishmentarianalistically' whcih means "In favour of the false behaviour in the manner of a person belonging to the movement opposed to the new version of the movement opposed to the separation of church and state".
Wow. Okay. I quit. ![]() |

I think that it is a common problem that comes from a fear of ineffective management of resources or of peoples time. The people who tend to be free thinkers also tend to be fast at work. All the same, as long as the individual has time, or is able to make it, to do what they think is in their best interest and worthy of their effort, then it doesn't really matter who is on top. The true to themselves low will rise, and most of the time without caring too much about it. I would guess that as technology or sustainability of workplace, or as we continue to get more from doing less, this trend will ease up. But that might take awhile, and has little to do with anything but business. Still, I wouldn't say anything if I saw a tacit collar hold on a boss one day.
