I had heard of companies that required employees to pass psychological evaluations, but had never run across an actual example. I wonder if enjoying Alice in Wonderland is a 'plus' or a 'minus' on the sanity chart. However, it must be a great comfort to know that you are sane. Do you get a little certificate to hang on your wall?
(In case you don't, I made one over lunch... I needed the distraction.)
(Unlinked anywhere else, in the event that I inadvertently stepped on a toe here.)
I too enjoyed Through the Looking Glass more than Alice in Wonderland, though I'm not sure I prefer one over the other these days. (I do like both of them better than Sylvie and Bruno, but that's to be expected.)
I hope that you are having a truly frabjous day and avoiding discourse with the man at the helm.
You made me a certificate of sanity? That's kinda nuts. :)
I think I'll print it up and hang it on my wall and see how long it takes before anyone comments. I think the expiration date is particularly charming. Does that mean that I'll have to go completely batty in 30 years?
I have no idea how to pronounce my psychoanalysts' names. I won't, however, see this as a personal failing on my part; that would be an indication of an inferiority complex which I certifiably don't have.
There's a high-res version, "suitable for printing", over here. Glad you liked it.
I have no idea how to pronounce those names either. I can recognize Greek, but, alas, have never learned to speak it. (I stole them from this wikipedia article.)
And I suppose that you will either have go insane in 30 years or re-certify (though given that's when the epoch rolls over, insanity would be nicer than still being in IT at that point). It's not like an expiration date on a birth certificate. You have some options. :)
