It's the small things I miss from FUKD plc
I miss the opportunity to scratch my genitals. I never took the opportunity, but it was somewhat comforting to know that if I ever did feel so inclined - in a meeting, or over coffee - it was perfectly normal behaviour.
I miss swearing. The rhythm it brings to your speech. The simple pleasure of a good, well-chosen invective. The loss of the most appropriate vocabulary to describe a particular person/situation.
I miss being able to call someone a useless fuckwit. In fact, the next useless fuckwit who says "mmm good challenge" when I point out - in the mealy-mouthed BigCo vocabulary - that they are useless, and a fuckwit; may find themselves stabbed.
I miss being nasty about other departments. When Sales didn't make their targets last quarter it was quite evidently because "they are weak". The solution is obvious - "a bit less carrot, and a bit more stick".
