today at work, we celebrated someone in my department getting a promotion to be a co-ordinator in a different department. it seems she's been working really long, and its about time she climbed that corporate ladder.

what i cant figure out is HOW to find out WHERE you are in the ladder...

after a LONG HARD DAY of...well nothing... i have come up with this (or i stole it off someones website)

Key to Status:
S = D/K. S is the status of a person in an organization, D is the number of doors he must open to perform his job, and K is the number of keys he carries. A higher number denotes higher status. Thus the janitor needs to open 20 doors and has 20 keys (S = 1), a secretary has to open two doors with one key (S = 2), but the president never has to carry any keys since there is always someone around to open doors for him (with K = 0 and a high D, his S reaches infinity).

thats interesting no?!

and since i work pretty close to a lab...i should pay attention to this piece of advice:
