    Great quote. I’m sure people have been spying out bullshit jobs before the industrial revolution, too.

    On call standing in the corner to present candied dates or wave palm fronds over the emperor was necessary only for the emperor to fool himself into thinking he was inherently more important than anyone else.

    I can’t imagine nobody noticed.
