The mission statement for those who have a need to know . And you enter the fray with a sense of moral obligation to better the whole. The team depends on your input and the client depends on your honesty. A noble but futile attempt for they have already condemned you as the problem. You believe in the sanctity of communication and the basic tenet of respect.
Youthful notions blow away under the constant howl of white noise and intimidation.
You realize that these are people that Nabokov would have satirized and later be shot for. These are truly horrible boring times. You spend a year of your life spent in beige rooms listening to lies told upon lies told upon lies until no one can remember the truth so it becomes the truth. You feel the small tear in your stomach grow bigger and count the days until your heart attack. You focus on your work.
