Advice books for executive wannabes ( Herald article )

 I myself am presently collecting TDI so I am  more accurately

    described as a blue collar wannabe than an executive wannabe. Nevertheless

    I can empathize with futile ambition everywhere and have even browsed

    those " confusing array of advice books " ( Boston Herald, Lifestyle, April

    8 ).

              My advice for executive wannabes  nowadays can be compressed

    into a few sentences:

              1     HAVE THE SOUL OF A SNAKE

              2     DON'T LOOK A DAY OVER 50

              3     HAVE A  STICKER on YOUR BRAND NEW CAR THAT READS : " I VOTED

                    FOR BUSH ! "

              4      SUPPRESS EVERY SYMPATHETIC THOUGHT YOU MIGHT HAVE FOR

                     ABUSED AND DECEIVED EMPLOYEES.


              In short  the soul of ENRON is the soul of corporate America.

                    And good luck. God IS on your side !
