Sadly not, though I'm sure we all enjoy a good bun dance from time to time.

And what, might I ask is, wrong with a bit of Weather Report or Mahavishnu Orchestra? Or the mighty Gong for that matter?

It's also not true.
Some of those awesome technologies do make it out of the meeting rooms, but get implemented by a bunch of bunglers who don't understand it and ultimately conclude "this is not for us" while you get to maintain the crap they wrote

Let's just judge her on her abilities and attitude, rather than the size of her chest, eh?

Oddly, that can be considered dehumanizing.
You have disappointed your lounge fans.
You have disappointed the incidental rabble.
But worst of all, if I were merely human, you'd have disappointed me.

Sleeping your way to the top is soo '70s!
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I remember my careers advice interview on leaving school in the early '80s.
After being poo-pooed on my initial suggestions (demon fast-bowler, astronaut, gigolo etc.), I put forward the idea of working with computers only to be told to stop being ridiculous as they'd never catch on.
I should have listened ...

Thomas Watson, president of IBM, 1943 said: "I think there is a world market for maybe five computers."
There can't be many more than that these days, can there?

That's rather optimistic. Surely it should be, "Everything you learned at school was obsolete ten years ago"?

I own a small plumbing company. I answer an emergency call today from some guy whining about water in his utility room and not being able to get WiFi. I explain that I'm on a job and will be there around 4pm. He howls about wrenches and rude neighbors and sputters about his WiFi again so I tell him I'll drop everything and get right out. I hope the home-bound retiree I'm leaving without water will be OK.
When I arrive the homeowner is in his bath robe and is still ranting like a fiend. Eventually he shows me his utility room where I find a corroded dielectric union. I tell him the best solution is to replace the union but I'll need to shut-off his water and drain the tank to do it properly since the water heater was installed improperly and I'll have to modify his supply. Total job cost is $600.
Dude almost passed out! Started screaming about how he "installed the water heater myself 3 years before and how dare I tell him it's wrong. $600 is highway robbery!"
Then he had the nerve to ask me to borrow a wrench! Idiot!

Funny story. Only about 3/5ths wrong, especially the part about DIY WH install.
