The Pent Umbrage of the Tempy, Part VIII


Your organization of the payroll department is very beautiful. It is beautiful because it fits perfectly within the organization of your company. The organization of your company is beautiful because it fits perfectly within the organization of the marketplace it serves. The marketplace is meticulously organized according to the needs and wants of the people of the nation. The marketplace is beautiful because it fits perfectly within the organization of the nation. The organization of the nation is very beautiful. It fits perfectly within the cosmos, that beautiful organization of all.

Your organization of the payroll department is very beautiful. Only the organization of the payroll department is beautiful. Other than that, the place is squalid—an ugly mess of ….messiness. You had wrestled beauty from squalor by being able to look upward to the organization of the company, by asking yourself over and over: how can this (this process, this method, this item, this object, this employee) be made to fit perfectly into the organization of the company? There was an answer obtainable each time this question was asked, and slowly but surely the organization of the payroll department began to take on this beautiful, and luminous quality…The beautiful and luminous quality of the beautiful organization of the company for which you worked.

Your organization of the payroll department is very beautiful. You were in payroll, and that meant you were in personnel. Payroll was organized, and though under payroll, personnel never was. And, that was, at first, the rub. You organized payroll, and yet you rubbed against personnel. Personnel objected. Each and every time you furthered the organization of payroll, personnel chafed. Indeed, your sharp chisel carved into, chipped into, stone which refused to see itself as messiness, stone which refused to see itself as squalor impeding the release into a perfect fit to organization. You yourself, in your own inability to be faithful to the beauty of organization, blanched, as this non-silent, non-acquiescent and weeping stone fell away. Without the perfection of your company’s organization to guide and hold you, you could never have proceeded.
