Corporate Employee Suggests More KPIs
Sydney, Australia – A corporate minion was given a reprimand for “not being a team player”. Last week, John Lee was told that he had failed to meet one of his key performance indicators (KPIs). He contested that decision because his position is a core function of the company. “I only get to do the work that comes to me,” said Lee. “You can’t do the work if people don’t give you work. It’s not like the support departments where you can just keep shuffling paper as long as the

Amusing main character who has delusions of grandeur and wants to play hero. But he is actually very capable and what he thinks is a fictional cult is real. Moderately intriguing and entertaining comedy that mildly parodies the fantasy genre.
