My boss and I relieve the tedium of our routine by passing snippets of fascinating info to each other as and when the mood/idea strikes. I just told him about reading a piece in the paper where some guy was saying naming kids after medicine names would be so great. And this is tge conversation tht followed:
Boss: There aren't any cool names in medicine really. And besides, this opens up a whole new world od possibilities regarding the meanings of those names!
Me: Oh I can't really remember, but he did mention quite a few names.
Boss: Yes but imagine their difficulties in later life. Any email addressed to them would immediately be directed to spam!
Me: True
Boss: Oh wait! This is a campain! The parents are spammers and they're going to use this as their weapon to legalize those names and get them removed from the spamming list... and then they'd be rich!
Me: Wow, you really do think far ahead!
Boss: Did I mention I'm moonlighting as an evil genius who plans to take over the world?
Me: So what am I doing HERE as your assistant? You should give me a job!
Boss: Well, you'd have to be a henchman and that job comes with several drawbacks, the main being that you'd be first destroyed at the hands of my nemesis, James Blunt. However, if you do manage to make it to the promoted post of minion, there are perks.
Me: Oh I'm sure I'll survive.
Boss: Okay I'll get you an application form for 'Henchman' then.
An evil gang? With identities named after medicines? BLOODY BRILLIANT!! So what will be your weapon? Anthrax syringe;) I can even foresee a graphic novel series on stands published by your team! Hmmm... your boss IS a genius!
