An institution has happened to a potato.
Poetato had been having an unremarkable afternoon when somebody put a lanyard on him. This transformed him, in the eyes of the organisation, from a potato into the organisation's most senior potato. He was photographed, given responsibilities, and informed that he was passionate about innovation. His request for a window was received warmly, assigned a reference number, and sent to a department which existed primarily to prevent requests for windows from reaching windows. Poetato remained where he was. This was reported to the board as excellent staff retention.
“I had thought a growth opportunity would involve soil.” — Poetato
