phrase of the week

collective responsibility.

example of usage. on conditions of anonymity, our sources at the office let us have tapes of this morning's breakfast chat:


muhendaran: half yearly performance appraisal today. okay, sri tell lawyer #1 (our sources refused to reveal names) - her performance was marginally satisfactory, and lawyer #2 (again ransom refused to disclose specific identities) - performance was unsatisfactory.

reaction: lawyer #1 was smirking. lawyer # 2 demanded recount and explanation on how performance appraisal was done.

using laws of collective responsibility, it was held that lawyer #2 (kavi-lah. who else will make so much noise? it's all my training...) by questioning appraisal had breached CR, and was suspended without notice.

we had indian food for lunch, and chocolate thereafter. in view of the fact that it is now 4pm, you can reasonably expect more food to be consumed.

its amazing that despite all that food we are all consistently gorgeous and relatively svelte...

was impressed to see that we have fan mail. we also do autographs. consultation is free.

my trial went on for a while, then the magistrate had to go off - he had a big lunch to go to,to say farewell to Tuan R, who is retiring this Saturday. we met shan's transexual lawyer friend in court. she was very attractive.
