Wally is asleep in his cubicle. Asok enters and says, "Wally, I need
advice from the master." Wally wakes up and says, "Huh?" Asok
says, "How do you remain so carefree while everyone else seems so
overworked?" Wally replies, "Asok, you are ready to learn my most
powerful secret." Wally continues, "Always volunteer to do lots of
tasks. That will make you appear very busy." Wally continues,
"Later, when someone complains that you didn't do a task..." Wally
continues, "Say you remember discussing the topic but you don't recall
agreeing to do anything." Wally continues, "Offer a glimmer of
hope that you might yet do the task if no one yells at you... Then
repeat." Asok replies, "Wow." Asok walks away and thinks, "He's like
a Gandhi that eats."
